SiXOCC

Wireless Occupancy Sensor

The Honeywell Home SiXOCC Occupancy Sensor is a wireless device used with controllers that support Honeywell Home’s SiX™ series
devices.

The SiXOCC combines security motion detection and automation in one unit. Using automation, or occupancy mode allows the device to
signal the control to turn a light on or off and/or a thermostat to a pre-programmed temperature.

NOTE: Lights controlled via Z-Wave devices have not been evaluated by ETL.

SECURITY SENSOR

The security sensor reacts to movement and tells the panel
to react based on the control’s programming.

1. Typically, it’s programmed as an interior follower.

2. LED walk test mode indication, one for the intrusion
detection and the other for the occupancy detection. (See
testing for more information.)

3. Up to 40 pounds’ pet immunity.

If the system is Armed, the control goes into alarm.

If the system is disarmed it turns the light on (or adjusts

the thermostat) based on the explanation below.

OCCUPANCY SENSOR

When the control is disarmed (deactivated), the occupancy
sensor switches to occupancy mode and reacts to the user’s
programming in the control. Logic is as follows:

General Operation

1. First detection activates turns on the lights and/or
adjusts the temperature.

Any small movement, such as the turning a page of a
book or swiping a tablet will continue to keep the light on
and temperature at the programmed levels.

2. When it stops detecting movement for a pre-defined
time-period defined by the user/ installer, it will turn off
the light and increase or lower the temperature until
movement is detected again.

MOUNTING LOCATION

• The optimal range is obtained at a mounting height of 7’ 6”
(2.3m).

• Allow a clear line-of-sight to all areas to protect.

• Do not directly face windows.

• Avoid close-proximity to moving machinery, fluorescent lights, and

heating/cooling sources.

For use in applications with pets up to 40 pounds (36 kilograms).

In Applications with Animals:

• Mount with the center of the device at 7.5 feet (2.3m)

• Mount where pet cannot come within 6 feet (1.8m) of the sensor

by climbing on furniture, stairs, boxes or other objects.

Test each installation to determine exact level of animal immunity;
levels vary based on environmental differences and the amount of
heat radiated

by an animal.

Daylight Savings

Daylight Savings sensor detects the lighting level in the
room.

1. Turns on lights only if the daylight is below a certain
level and tries to keep the same amount of light in the
room.

2. Once the daylight has been evaluated, the SiXOCC
decides when to turn on the light. Depending on the
level the light turns on to 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%.

Example: If the natural room light level is at 100%, then

the light does not turn on; at 0% natural light,
the light turns on to 100%.

3. The level the light turns on can be set to a certain % (vs.
slowly increasing the light level). For example, any
natural light level decrease turns on the light to 100%.

Programmable to turn the feature on (described above), or
off (when it detects any movement).

MOUNTING OPTIONS

NOTE: Once enrolled in a system, the sensor cannot be

4. Enrollment is confirmed when the LED is ON for 3 seconds.

Signal Strength:

After enrolling, verify adequate signal strength
by conducting Go/No Go tests (see the
controller’s instructions) with the device in its
intended mounting location. Adjust the device
location and orientation as necessary.

The SIXOCC can be mounted on the wall or in
corners:

• [A] = Wall mounting holes.

• [B] = Corner mounting holes.

• The rear tamper plate MUST be mounted
to a stud, solid wood, or with a robust wall
anchor.

ENROLL THE SIXOCC

used with another controller until it is removed
from the current controller. See the Controller’s
instructions for details.

Press down on the top latch and separate the front and back
covers.

1. Put the controller in Programming Mode and when prompted:

2. Remove the battery tab to activate and begin the enrollment
process. Or, if powered, press the tamper.

3. The green LED beneath the batteries flashes (up to about 20
seconds*) during enrollment. The device sends its unique
MAC ID (Serial Number) and Services information to the
controller.

NOTE: Enrollment time varies depending on the signal
strength between the device and the controller.

NOTE: If the sensor is not successfully enrolled during
the enrollment period, the LED turns off and the
device enters a sleep mode. Activate a tamper or
remove and reinsert the batteries to restart the
enrollment process.

NOTE: Pet Immunity is selectable: Off or Up to
40 lbs (36 kg).

Sensor Location Feature: To verify the location of each SiX
device in an installation, enter programming mode and select a
SiX device. The device LED lights. Select it again to turn the
LED off or select the next device to locate.

Range of 1-4 bars (green); should be
minimum 1 green bar for the Zone being
programmed. Four red bars indicate poor
signal strength; the device should be
relocated. See the Controller’s instructions
for bar indication signal strength values.
