IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Read these instructions prior to operating the unit. For the most up-to-date manual, visit www.violetdefense.com/
resources.
• Keep and follow all instructions.
• Heed all warnings. Failure to use the equipment in the manner specied may impair the unit from providing the desired
protection.
• Plug unit into a grounded outlet. Ensure proper conditions for operation. The unit is designed to operate under normal
conditions indoors (temperature 5-40 degrees Celsius, RH less than 80% (non-condensing), at an altitude <2000m and
main supply uctuations +/- 10% of nominal voltage, overvoltage Category II.
• Allow unit to complete pre-programmed cycles prior to unplugging or shutting o power. This allows it to enter safe
mode.
• Do not allow the unit to get wet or be used in or near water.
• Do not block any ventilation openings. Use in accordance with these instructions.
• Do not attempt to open or tamper with the unit.
• Do not place or store the unit near any ammable materials or liquids.
• Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades and a third
grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not t into
your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from the unit.
• Unplug this unit during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
• Refer all servicing to qualied service personnel. Servicing is required when the unit has been damaged in any way, such
as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the unit, the unit has been
exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
• Unit is designed to operate only when the room is unoccupied. There are redundant safety systems to ensure the unit
does not activate while the room is occupied as the UV light is not recommended for excessive exposure. If the sensor in
the system fails, the system will shut down.
• Do not look directly at the unit due to the brightness of the light. UV light does not signicantly penetrate standard glass,
therefore, incidental exposure on the other side of a window or wall does not present any signicant risk.
THIS PRODUCT IS NOT A TOY. KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN.

SAFETY WARNINGS

Disclaimer: The S.A.G.E. UV unit is not intended for use as a medical device and people should not be directly exposed to the
light generated by the unit. The actual disinfection rates on a specic space will vary.
GENERAL OPERATION OF THE UNIT
1. The S.A.G.E. UV unit is designed to be installed approximately 2 meters (~6 1/2 feet) away
from priority areas. See page 11 for additional information on installation methods. Note that
the unit has been tested to kill E. coli, S. enterica, S. aureus at distances of up to 4 meters (~13
feet) away, but the length of time necessary to run the unit increases with the distance from
targeted area. Reective surfaces, including metallic surfaces, tiles, and safety glass will
enhance the eectiveness of the unit as the UV light will reect o of these surfaces.
2. The unit runs at 120V AC and 60 Hz. Once powered on, at its peak, the Whole Room Unit
unit will draw up to 7 amps (less than a standard vacuum cleaner) and the Micro/Bath Unit
less than 3.5 amps for 4 second intervals. Ensure the breaker has available amp draw during
operation.
3. While the unit is operational, all personnel should leave the space during the cleaning cycle.
Exit the space within 60 seconds for optimal functioning of the unit.
4. The unit’s redundant safety systems will stop the unit from operating if motion is detected in
the space. The unit will resume operation approximately 60 seconds (unless alternate motion
timeout was selected) after room is unoccupied and no additional motion is detected.
5. The unit will run a safety test to ensure unit is functioning properly and that there is no motion
detected in the space. If successful, unit will run its pre-programmed operational cycle. See
guidelines for standard unit or building automation enabled units for more information on
operational modes.
6. Allow the unit to complete its entire cycle before unplugging or turning o power to the unit.
This allows the unit to enter safe mode. If necessary to cease operation prior to completion of
cleaning cycle, be sure to keep unit away from water for optimal safety. It’s recommended that
the units have a 15-minute cool down period after each 30-minute disinfection cycle.

STANDARD UNITS
CONFIGURING THE UNIT
The S.A.G.E. Wizard can be used to congure units to the preferred programming mode and
adjust related settings. This conguration should be completed before initial operation or as
changes need to be made. To begin, visit www.violetdefense.com/wizard to download the
S.A.G.E. Wizard and computer conguration instructions. After downloading, run the installer
and a shortcut will be placed on computer’s start menu and desktop.
1. Congure your computer per instructions.
2. Plug the S.A.G.E. unit into your computer using an Ethernet cable.
3. Open the S.A.G.E. Wizard and follow the on-screen instructions to congure the unit,
including operational mode, related settings such as length of motion time-out, runtime
for manual or scheduled mode, and scheduling options, such as start-time for scheduled
mode.
4. Once completed, unplug the cable and install the unit. See additional installation
instructions on page 9.
Each standard unit has 3 primary modes available to users. Fixtures must be programmed
before initial use.
• Autonomous Mode: In this mode, once plugged in, the unit will automatically
activate once the space is unoccupied and continue disinfection on a regular
schedule, adjusting frequency based on level of activity in the space based on the
motion sensor. Users may select the timeout time, which determines how long the
unit will wait until resuming operation after motion is detected.
• Scheduled Mode: In this mode, the unit will activate at selected time(s) of day
during each 24-hour period. Users may schedule up to 4 start times each day to
operate for a specied run time (i.e. 15 or 30 minutes). Users may select the motion
timeout, which determines how long the unit will wait until resuming operation after
motion is detected. The unit may also be congured to activate a disinfection cycle
immediately when it is powered and then continue with the scheduled operational
time(s).
• Single Cycle Mode: In this method, users will manually activate the unit to start
a disinfection cycle. The unit will then run its pre-programmed cycle (i.e. 15 or 30
minutes) one time before entering safe mode until power is cycled on and o again.
Users may select the timeout time, which determines how long the unit will wait until
resuming operation after motion is detected.

GETTING STARTED
To get connected to your S.A.G.E. unit, use one of the following two methods:
Connect Automatically Using a DHCP-enabled Router
1. Connect one end of an Ethernet network cable to the S.A.G.E. unit, and the other
into a DHCP-enabled router. Ensure your computer is connected to the same router
(either Ethernet or Wi-Fi).
2. Ensure your S.A.G.E. unit is powered on.
3. Use your BACnet software of choice to discover the S.A.G.E. device.
Connect manually using a direct Ethernet connection
1. Connect one end of an Ethernet network cable to the S.A.G.E. unit, and the other
directly into your computer’s Ethernet adaptor.
2. Ensure your S.A.G.E. unit is powered on.
3. On your computer, set your connected Ethernet adaptor’s IP address to “192.168.1.2”
4. Use your BACnet software of choice to discover the SAGE device. By default, the
SAGE device will bind to address “192.168.1.5” (Note: It may take up to 15 seconds for
the device to appear on network after bootup.)
Network Troubleshooting
1. If your BACnet software is having trouble discovering the device, try an alternate
connection method. Verify each step carefully. If it is still not responding, try rebooting
the unit or using the reset button to restore the default memories.
2. The unit’s network conguration can be reset to factory default by holding the reset
button in for at least 2 seconds and then releasing. This will clear all congured IP
settings and reset the unit to preferring a DHCP-assigned IP address, but will fall back
to a known address (192.168.1.5) if no DHCP-router is detected (in the case of a direct
connection, for example).
3. The unit’s entire congurable memory can be factory reset by holding the reset button
in for at least 10 seconds and then releasing. This will put the unit into manufacturing
mode until congured otherwise. In this mode, the unit can only be manually connected
to (method 2) until the 5-ash cycle has nished. When the LED is solid green, reboot
the unit, and then automatic connection (method 1) will be possible.
4. Note: If a user congured BACnet object “DHCP CNFG” to disabled, automatic
connection (method 1) will be impossible. Holding the reset button in for 2 seconds will
recover this state.
5. Note: If a user congured BACnet objects “IP Address CNFG”, “Subnet Mask CNFG”, or
“Gateway CNFG”, both automatic and manual connections may be impossible. Holding
the reset button in for 2 seconds will recover this state.

RECOMMENDED CLEANING PROTOCOLS
For most situations, the general cleaning procedures can be used to operate the S.A.G.E. UV
unit. However, there are special instructions recommended for blood spills, or when certain
organisms, such as C. di are known or suspected to be present.
General Cleaning
1. Complete standard cleaning procedures to remove any visible dirt, grease, or other
debris from space.
2. Activate whole room unit per operational instructions above.
3. Upon returning to space, look at indicator light. Solid green light indicates cleaning cycle
completed. If motion was detected prior to observing the indicator light, the indicator
light will turn red. If users want to determine if unit completed the last cycle, prior to
powering o, stand out of range of the motion sensor for 60 seconds. The light will
resume solid green if cycle was completed. Otherwise, it will resume operation.
Cleaning When Blood or Bodily Fluids Are Present
UV light has the ability to penetrate liquid blood, which has not formed a dried crust, or
bodily uids up to a 1/16” thickness as long as there is no tissue or solid material present.
Therefore, UV light may be used to help protect sta before and after traditional cleaning
protocols for your facility.
1. Activate S.A.G.E. UV unit prior to commencing any cleaning procedures. If the blood has
already dried, apply hydrogen peroxide solution prior to running the unit.
2. Utilize normal procedures, including appropriate safety protocols to clean the space,
including removal of blood and bodily uids.
3. Activate a second cycle of the S.A.G.E. UV unit to target any remaining bacteria and
viruses.
Cleaning When C. di Is Of Concern
Clostridium dicile (C. di) is a bacteria that is extremely dicult to kill (hence its name) as
it is able to survive in unfavorable conditions. Furthermore, it is an anaerobic, endosporic
organism, which means it can survive without oxygen and form dormant spores to survive
harsh conditions. With the risk of severe illness associated with C. di, it is recommended
that you use a combination of approaches to reduce the risk of contracting C. di in your
facility.
1. Utilize your facility’s adopted environmental cleaning and disinfection strategy for dealing
with C. di.
2. Activate the S.A.G.E. UV unit for two consecutive 30-minute cycles at a range of less than
one meter for best results.

S.A.G.E. UV SAFETY OVERVIEW
Given the correct combination of user protocols and the built-in safety features, there are
minimal risks of any harmful eects from using the S.A.G.E. UV units.
RECOMMENDATIONS
• If in the vicinity of the S.A.G.E. UV unit during operation, do not look directly at the
light. This is similar to how one would avoid harmful eects from the sun by not
looking directly at it.
• Germicidal UV light does not signicantly penetrate standard glass.
• Per the built-in safety features described below, the unit is designed to not operate
while a room is occupied. However, operators are instructed in the user manual to
have all persons vacate a space before operation. Further optional protocols, such
as signage indicating the UV unit is in operation may be desired.
SAFETY FEATURES
The S.A.G.E. UV units have four primary aspects to their built-in safety features to ensure
the safety of anyone operating the unit or in its vicinity.
Limited Exposure Risk
Due to the nature of the programming on the S.A.G.E. UV units, over a 30-minute cycle
time for the unit, the actual exposure to UV (if there were no other safety systems in place)
would be no more than two seconds of exposure.
Motion Detection
Each S.A.G.E. UV unit has built-in passive infrared (PIR) sensor used to detect motion in
a space. The sensor is programmed to detect individuals walking into the deployment
space. The unit will not resume operation of the cleaning cycle until it has successfully
detected the space is free of motion.
Safe Stop
The third layer of protection built into the S.A.G.E. units is to ensure that if the motion
sensor or other components experience technical issues, the unit will safe stop by cycling
the unit o. The unit will ash red indicating that one should contact Violet Defense for
technical support. The unit will not resume operation until the issue detected has been
resolved. If unit is non-responsive (i.e. non-operational or no indicator light), contact Violet
Defense.
Frequency of Flashes
The S.A.G.E. UV units will ash every 6 seconds during operation. Violet Defense
collaborated with the Epilepsy Foundation when designing the product to ensure that the
frequency of ashes will not cause any issues for someone with photosensitive epilepsy.

S.A.G.E. UV SAFETY OVERVIEW
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) does not have any mandated
exposure limits to ultraviolet light. OSHA only provides technical guidance regarding
protecting employees from ultraviolet laser exposure. While general information about
ultraviolet contained in that guidance is described below, it is important to note that Violet
Defense Technology does not currently deploy ultraviolet lasers. For more information on
OSHA’s guidelines, visit https://www.osha.gov/pls/oshaweb/owadisp.show_document?p_
table=INTERPRETATIONS&p_id=24755.
Ultraviolet radiation is divided into three regions: UV-A: 315-400 nanometers (nm), UV-B:
280-315 nm, and UV-C: 100-280 nm. UV can be associated with adverse health eects due
to prolonged exposure and the wavelength of light.
According to OSHA’s guidelines, “exposure in the shorter UV-C and longer UV-A ranges
seems less harmful to human skin. The shorter wavelengths are absorbed in the outer dead
layers of the epidermis and the longer wavelengths have an initial pigment-darkening eect
followed by erythema if there is exposure to excessive levels.”
“The hazards associated with skin exposure are of less importance than eye hazards.”
Exposure to light may cause photokeratitis or cataracts.
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)
The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) recommends limits to
exposure determined by the wavelength of UV light and intensity. NIOSH recommends that
the time of exposure to an intensity of 100 microwatts per square centimeter at wavelength
254 nm not exceed 1 minute. Per the programming, UV exposure from S.A.G.E. unit for a
30-minute cycle is less than two seconds. For more information, view the recommended
standards from NIOSH (https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/docs/73-11009/pdf/73-11009A.pdf).
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is the governmental agency responsible for
regulating ultraviolet light products. It regulates chemical disinfectants along with devices,
such as equipment that generates UV light, used to control pests like bacteria and making
antimicrobial claims. For more information about EPA guidelines, visit https://www.epa.gov/
safepestcontrol/pesticide-devices-guide-consumers.
Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) only regulates devices that are classied as medical
instruments, machines, and devices used to treat diagnosed medical conditions. Therefore,
Violet Defense does not fall under FDA guidelines.
