INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Product Description
Leviton® Cat. No. ODS15-GD, Wall Switch Occupancy Sensor, uses Passive Infrared
(PIR) detection technology to monitor a room for occupancy through a segmented
lens. This specialized lens divides the field-of-view into sensor zones. When a person
passes into or out of a sensor zone, the sensor detects motion and switches the
lights ON. The lights will remain ON as long as there is an occupant moving through
the sensor zones. ODS15-GD can also be programmed to vacancy mode (ManualON/Auto-OFF) for installations where manual-ON switching is required. The
ODS15-GD provides a 180° field-of-view with a maximum coverage area of
approximately 1100 square ft. The maximum sensing distance in front of the sensor
is 30-40 ft., and 15-20 ft. on either size. A “minor motion” zone detects small body
movements and allows the lights to stay ON even though a person may not be
moving or walking around the room. The remainder of the field-of-view, the “major
motion” zone, exhibits a lesser degree of sensitivity and requires larger movements.
Configuration is made using the Leviton Smart Sensor App from your smartphone or
other Bluetooth™ enabled Android™ or iOS device. Simple configuration can also be
applied using push-button setup for several popular pre-configured options.
ODS15-GD is also equipped with a photocell for daylighting hold-off which is
programmable using the Leviton Smart Sensor App. ODS15-GD can be used in
applications with or without a Neutral wire.
Before Installation
• Installs into standard single gang wall boxes.
• Supports multi-gang installations.
®
wallplate not included.
• Decora
• Controls lighting loads and plug load control up to 20A.
For Optimal Performance:
The ODS15-GD sensor lens establishes dozens of zones of detection. The sensor
is sensitive to the heat emitted by the human body. In order to trigger the sensor,
the source of heat must move from one zone of detection to another. The device is
most effective in sensing motion across its field-of-view, and less effective sensing
motion towards or away from its field-of-view. Keep this in mind when selecting
the installation location. Note that occupancy sensors respond to rapid changes in
temperature, so care should be taken not to mount the device near a climate control
source (i.e. radiators, air exchanges, and air conditioners). Hot or cold drafts will look
like body motion to the device and will trigger it if the unit is mounted too close. It
is recommended to mount the Occupancy Sensor at least 6 ft. away from a climate
control source. In addition, it is also recommended NOT to mount the Occupancy
Sensor directly under a large light source. Large wattage bulbs (greater than 100W
incandescent) give off a lot of heat and switching the bulb causes a temperature
change that can be detected by the device. Mount the Occupancy Sensor at least
6 ft. away from large bulbs. If it necessary to mount the device closer, lower the
wattage of the bulb directly overhead.

2. Gently place the wires and your device into the wall box and attach with
screws provided.
3. If desired, change switch color (sold separately).
4. Restore power and test ON/OFF operation. Locator light should be ON when
switch power is turned OFF.
5. Install Decora wallplate (not included).
6. ODS15-GD is designed to work and be fully functional right out of the box.
Settings can be adjusted using the Leviton Smart Sensor App or simple push
button programming.
7. Using the Leviton Smart Sensor App or push button programming, you can
now configure the sensor to your preferred settings. (The Leviton Smart Sensor
App, is downloadable from Google Play™ or the Apple App Store
Bluetooth enabled Android or iOS device). Operating mode, sensor sensitivity,
and sensor timeout can be quickly adjusted. For more advanced settings such
as daylighting and nightlight configuration, the Leviton Smart Sensor App will
need to be used for setup and adjustments.

1. The ODS15-GD Sensor is designed to work out of the box in default settings.
Changes to these settings and additional product configuration can be performed
using the Leviton Smart Sensor App, downloadable from Google Play or the
Apple App Store, using any Bluetooth enabled Android or iOS device.
a. To pair to device using the Leviton Smart Sensor App:
i. Press and hold the ON/OFF button for roughly 5 seconds; when the LED
behind the PIR lens blinks BLUE, release the button.
ii. Open the Leviton Smart Sensor App and connect to the device.
iii. The device can also be found by scanning for nearby devices. Devices can
be identified in the app to confirm you are connected to the right sensor.
b. Use the Leviton Smart Sensor App to:
i. Set operating mode to Auto ON / Auto OFF (default) or
Manual ON / Auto OFF.
ii. Adjust the sensitivity of the sensor to increase or decrease field-of-view
coverage area pending the room size (100% for larger spaces approaching
1100 sq ft.).
iii. Adjust timeouts (amount of time lights/load will turn OFF after occupancy is
no longer detected).
iv. Activate the night light and its operating mode; selection of custom night
light color.
v. Add daylighting and select target levels for daylighting.
vi. Set a security code to lock configuration.
vii. See Leviton Smart Sensor App for additional settings and other
programming options.

2. If the installer does not have access to a Bluetooth
enabled Android or iOS device, popular preset product
configuration can also be made using simple push
button commands:
a. If wall plate is attached, remove first. With the
wallplate removed, pinch sides of sensor near
bottom tabs to release front cover of sensor.
b. With the front faceplate of the sensor removed, push both buttons on front of
sensor simultaneously for 10-15 seconds (note: after 5 seconds, a light will
blink BLUE and then alternate between BLUE and RED) and release when the
Locator Light is blinking GREEN.

Operation
PUSH-BUTTON: ODS15-GD has a push-button switch that will toggle the lights ON
or OFF. When mode is set to Auto ON / Auto OFF, the lights will automatically turn
ON when occupancy is detected and will turn OFF automatically after occupancy is
no longer detected and the timeout has expired. If mode is set to Manual ON / Auto
OFF, the lights will only turn ON when the push-button switch is pressed; the lights
will turn OFF automatically after occupancy is no longer detected and the timeout
has expired. If the lights are ON, the lights can be turned OFF when the button is
pressed. The lights will stay OFF (regardless of motion detected) until the timeout
expires. After the timeout expires, the lights will turn ON when the next motion is
detected. This is useful for slide or film presentations.
NOTES:
• The Motion Indicator light will blink RED for 1 second each time motion is detected.
• In Manual ON mode, the button must be pressed to turn the lights ON. In the
absence of motion, the unit will time out and turn the lights OFF.
Troubleshooting
• If sensor does not trigger when entering the room or space, increase the sensitivity
level of the sensor and/or check the daylighting settings (increase the
daylighting level).
• If the lights constantly stay ON even when room is unoccupied:
- Check the Time Out setting and confirm set to desired time.
- Try lowering the sensor sensitivity; if problem persists, try lowering again.
- Check for reflected heat/motion as sensor may be seeing motion through
a window.
- Check for adjacent HVAC and/or heater ducts.

Bottom Button
c. Push the bottom button to move to the next
automatic setting using the table below as
a guide.
d. When at the desired setting, press and hold
the bottom button again for 5 seconds (until
the GREEN Locator Light turns ON), when
the button is released, the light will flash the
number of times as the setting selected; the
sensor is now saved in that configuration.
e. The front cover can now be reattached. Insert
the top tabs and push in bottom tabs to attach.
NOTES:
• Use the number of LED blinks to determine which user mode the sensor is
set to. If pressed more than 8 times, it will cycle back to the start of the list.
• Auto ON/Auto OFF (10 min timeout and 1 button press) is the
DEFAULT MODE.
3. Daylighting and Night Light: The ODS15-GD is equipped with a Photocell for
Daylighting hold-off and also has a built in Night Light that can be turned ON and
configured using the Leviton Smart Sensor App.
4. Bluetooth Reset: Resets any security settings but preserves lighting and
mode settings.
a. Push button on switch for approximately 20-25 seconds until the light behind
PIR lens is flashing RED.
NOTE: Between 5-10 seconds the LED will alternate between BLUE and
RED; at 15 seconds the LED will blink YELLOW.
b. When the light flashes RED, release the button.
c. The device will reset and turn off when complete.
d. When device turns back on it will have no password set.
