Catalog Number: RSEN-LG
Total Lighting Control
Two-way Occupancy Sensor for large rooms
DESCRIPTION AND FEATURES
The RSEN-LG is an ultrasonic motion sensor with builtin timing and load control relay driving circuitry. It is
designed to control lighting in a room approximately
900 to 2100 square feet. It is for use with the GE RTPACK
switchpack only, and is not for use with other relays or
transformers.
The sensor produces a low intensity, inaudible sound and
detects changes in the sound waves caused by motion, such
as walking into a room, reaching for a telephone, turning in a
chair, etc. The sensor does not respond to audible sound.
When the sensor detects motion, the pre-set time delay
period is started and the blue wire is electronically connected
to the black wire. This energizes the relay in the RTPACK
switchpack which turns on the load. At the end of the pre-set
time period, the blue wire is disconnected from the black,
causing the relay to open which turns off the load. The red
lead is a +15 VDC supply, the black lead is common and the
blue lead is the relay control.
• Full coverage with no gaps for rooms up to 2100 square feet
• Minor motion coverage up to 1350 square feet
• Not for use in corridors or warehouses
• Separate time delay and sensitivity adjustments
• Manual override should a unit fail (Failed board can be
replaced without removing unit or wiring)
• For indoor use

instructions. For GE TLC Service, call: 1-877-584-2685

Installation Instructions
IMRSEN-LG
Catalog Number: RSEN-LG
CAUTION: Do not run the sensor wire in the same
conduit as power conductors. Install in accordance
with local codes.
INSTALLATION
Basic Installation Steps
1. Locate and mount the sensor.
2. Mount the switchpack.
3. Wire the sensor to the switchpack.
4. Adjust settings and test.
Locating Sensor
Choose the sensor location carefully. The sensor must have a
clear view of the area to be controlled. The line of sight must
be through air; the sensor will not “see” through glass or high
partitions. A mounting height of 12 feet or less is desirable.
Avoid pointing directly into hallways. To prevent false
activation, do not mount where forced air will blow directly at
or by the sensor. For typical placement, refer to the Sensor
Location diagrams.
If partitions between 49" and 71" are present, see the Sensor
Coverage diagram. For greater partition heights, each
partitioned area should be treated as an individual space with
floor-to-ceiling walls. Note: For large open areas, scheduling
may be a more effective solution than multiple occupancy
sensors. Call 1-877-584-2685 for application assistance.
Mounting Sensor
Pass the control wires through the threaded mounting post
and interlock to the back plate. The sensor mounts to normal
ceiling tile through a single
sensor’s slotted grills must point along the path where motion
is to be detected. CAUTION: Finger-tighten the nut to
avoid stripping the mounting post.

On hard ceilings an adapter plate is available to allow
mounting to a standard fixture ring and junction box. The
threaded mounting post may be cut down if it is too long to fit
into the junction box.
Mounting Switchpack
The switchpack is generally mounted above the ceiling on the
outside of the junction box that contains a hot line, neutral and
the existing switch leg from which the lighting is controlled. If
additional switchpacks are required, they are mounted on the
outside of the boxes containing the appropriate switch legs.
In installations where there are no existing switch legs, the
switchpack may be mounted on the outside of any standard
junction box, with or without an extension ring.
When mounted, the line connections are inside the box and
the Class 2 wiring exits via the rear of the switchpack
housing. In areas where Class 2 wiring is not permitted, the
switchpack can be mounted internally to any standard
electrical box.
