Our product line offers key technologies that help save time on the job site, while adding lighting control features to the application space. SensorSwitch products include features such as wireless dimming, self-calibrating daylight controls, Visible Light Programming, dual detection technology, and more!
Technologies
Convertible Neutral
This technology allows a SensorSwitch Wall Switch occupancy sensor to convert from a no-neutral connection to a neutral-and-ground connection in seconds! If your application requires the use of a neutral connection, simply remove the ground link and wire the switch per code, making installation quick and easy. One sensor does it all!
Mis-wire Protection
Self-Calibrating Daylight Controls
All photocontrols have an automatic set-point calibration mode regardless of time-of-day or daylight conditions, improving installation time! With SensorSwitch Adaptive Daylight Harvesting (ADH), Automatic Dimming has never been more reliable – even in a wall switch. It works by establishing two set-points: daylight and darkness.
Adaptive Daylight Harvesting (ADH):
- Dynamically dims the luminaire to maintain the desired light level in the space as daylight levels change during the course of the day
- Uses an adaptive algorithm with slow fades so abrupt lighting changes do not occur
- Allows the combination of multiple energy strategies, required by progressive energy codes, in a single device
Visible Light Programming
Visible Light Programming uses pulses of light from your smartphone's flash to program sensor settings on a SensorSwitch product available with VLP. A sequence of flashes is transmitted from your smartphone to quick program settings such as occupancy time delay, trim levels, and photocontrols.

Passive Dual Technology (PDT)
A Combination of TWO detection technologies
Passive Infrared Technology (PIR) – Heat
The sensor “sees” the heat given off by the human body as it moves in and out of the beams and triggers the occupancy mode. All SensorSwitch sensors have PIR technology.
Microphonics™ - Sound
The sensor will first detect occupancy using Passive Infrared, and then engages Microphonics technology to hear sounds that indicate human activity. Note: the microphone does not record or utilize voice.
Passive Dual Technology
- More accurate, more reliable occupancy detection – no false offs
- Does not transmit potentially disruptive sound waves into the room
- Lower power consumption
- Solution for rooms with partitions or furnishings that would prevent infrared sensors from "seeing" occupants on a continuous basis
