Occupancy Sensor Time Delays

Wiring

If an occupancy sensor is connected to the WFA100-SN, 

the time delay must be set for minimum. When Daintree 

Networked is commissioned, time delays are set in the 

Daintree DCS web application. These DCS “Off delays” start 

counting down after the sensor’s internal time delay expires. 

Therefore, set the occupancy sensor for the minimum time 

delay during the WFA100-SN installation.

Figure 2: WFA100-SN Features

Figure 3: WFA100-SN Terminals

Line voltage wiring connects to the electrical supply circuit 

and to the ballast(s). Low voltage terminals provide connections 

for 0-10VDC dimming control signals to dimming ballasts. 

The WFA100-SN low voltage terminals also supply low voltage 

power and carry control signals from low voltage occupancy

sensors and photocells.
While the WFA100-SN is in Installation Test mode, the low voltage 

devices directly control the lights wired to the same WFA100-SN. 

After you exit Installation Test mode, the lights turn On and are 

NOT controlled by the devices connected to the WFA100-SN.
After joining the wireless network, the control signals from the 

low voltage devices pass through the WFA100-SN and are sent 

wirelessly to Daintree Networked. Depending on the zone and 

device configuration in DCS, wireless signals from the WAC to  

the WFA100-SN determine operation of the light(s).

Design Caution

Do not install a wireless adapter such as the WFA100-SN to 

control an electrical circuit that provides power to other wireless 

devices or adapters. If power to wireless adapters or devices is 

shut off, control and communication with them is disabled.

Reducing noise on low voltage (0-10V) wiring
•  Keep wiring as short as practical

•  Keep signal lines separate from mains voltage  

 lines.

•  Reduce the area created by the signal lines and  

  the GND return (i.e., keep them close together).

•  If possible twist the signal line with the GND return.

Must be installed inside a light fixture, or in an 

enclosure to protect people from high voltage.

Risk of electrical shock. Disconnect all power before installation.

All installation and maintenance of line voltage equipment must be 

performed by a qualified electrician. The WFA100-SN must be installed 

in accordance with all local, state, and national electrical codes and 

requirements. Wiring connectors are not supplied. UL recognized wiring 

connectors must be used in the installation. Each terminal can accept 

one conductor only. Connect only one 4AWG to 16AWG (0.2-1.5 mm) 

wire to any terminal.

CLASS 2 WIRING: 

All field wiring shall be suitable for Class 1. Electric Light 

and Power, or Class 2, 3 wirings are routed separately 

and secured to maintain separation between: 

 

1. 

 Class 2 wiring and all other class wiring, and

 2.

 Limited energy circuit conductors from unlimited 

    energy circuit conductors.
