Step 2: When placing the sensor inside the mount, hold
the sensor with the USB port facing the rear of the desk.
Caution
• Installation and maintenance must be in accordance
with local, state, and national electrical codes (NEC)
and requirements.
Step 1: Insert the wood screws through the mounting
holes with the tab facing the front edge of the desk.
Fasten the mount to the underside of the desk using a
screwdriver.
Step 1: Use a dry clean cloth or paper towel to clean
the surface to ensure a strong bond.
Step 4: Peel the backing from the other side of the
adhesive.
Step 6: Allow at least 30 minutes for the mount to adhere
to the surface.
Using Wood Screws (for Desk)
Step 5: For ceilings, hold the sensor firmly for five seconds
to ensure proper adhesion to the surface.
For desks, hold the sensor such that the USB port is
facing the rear of the desk, and the sensor lens is facing
the desk occupant. Then, firmly press the sensor into the
underside of the desk.
The Surface Sensor can be installed either in the ceiling
tile or placed under the desk.
• Center and mount the sensor to the underside of the
desk 15-26” from the front edge of the desk and at
least 5” from the rear edge for a typical 27” height
seated desk, or a 42-50” height standing desk.
• Mount the sensor parallel to the front edge of the desk.
• After installation, the sensor lens must be facing the
desk occupant for the sensor to detect occupancy.
• Ensure that the USB cable is long enough to plug into
the nearest USB adaptor.

Wiring the Cable to the Power Supply
Connect the USB end of the sensor cable into the
micro USB port on the sensor, and the other end to a
powered USB external adaptor plugged into the wall.
Confirm that the green LED is on solid. A red solid or
blinking LED indicates a faulty sensor or wiring issue.
To keep cables organized, use a cable holder with cord
clips for holding the extra length of the cable. Ceiling
sensors can use up to 8m extended cable.

Step 2: Remove the plastic strip on the double-sided
adhesive strip and fix it to the back of the sensor.
Step 3: Place the sensor by guiding the grooves in the
base onto the hooks on the mount. Slide the sensor
back until you hear a click to secure it to the mount.
Using Adhesive Strip (for Ceiling and Desk)
Step 3: For ceiling applications, remove the mask over
the lens. Hold the top edge of the dome-shaped mask,
rotate it counterclockwise, and lift the mask.
• Installing sensors in the ceiling may require running
cable through walls or ceilings. One end of the
cable connects to the USB port of the sensor, and
the other end into a power adaptor. Make your
cable selection based on the type of installation.
Guidelines
Overview
The Surface sensors are shipped with the adhesive strip.
The mounting bracket must be ordered separately.
The sensors can be installed using
• Adhesive strip, or
• Wood screws
The adhesive strip is recommended for a metal ceiling
grid or any smooth tile surface. Since desks can be of
wood or metal, use either adhesive strip or wood
screws to mount the sensor to the underside of the
desk.
