Tips for locating the Room Sensor correctly

Select the thick, black (temporary) sticky pad, or thin white (permanent) sticky pad and attach it to the back of the Room Sensor.

  • At chest height (so it measures the correct temperature and picks up the best occupancy).
    • The vision of the room sensor is 170º left to right and 40º up and down, but it is most sensitive in the middle 90º, so make sure it can see you.
  • On an internal wall (so it measures the correct temperature and is not affected by being on a cold surface).
    • Use the temporary pads permanently if this is an issue as it raises the sensor away from the wall slightly.
  • Not next to any direct sources of heat (so that it measures the temperature of the zone and is not affected immediately by a heat source in the room).
  • Not pointing at a direct source of heating or a window (this will affect the detection sensitivity of the sensor or will cause false triggers from people outside the window).

In rooms where people are sat or still make sure that the sensor is close to the areas where people are seated.
