ORDERING INFO
OPTIONS
LOW VOLTAGE RELAY (R)
•  Enables sensors to interface with other 
systems (e.g., BMS, lighting panels)
•  Provides dry contact closure via a 
SPDT, 1 Amp, 40 Volt relay
•  Only one relay needed per zone
•  Changes state when all connected 
sensors register unoccupied
•  Relay requires sensor power to function
OCCUPANCY CONTROLLED 
DIMMING (D)
•  Provides dimming output to control 
0-10 VDC dimmable ballasts
•  Provides a second occupancy time-out 
period that enables the lights to go to a 
dim setting before turning off
•  Adjustable max/min dim setting
•  Only one sensor per zone needs to 
have dimming output
PHOTOCELL (P)
•  Auto set-point calibration
•  Two selectable modes of operation
•  On/Off mode: Photocell has full control 
during periods of occupancy
•  Inhibit mode: Photocell can prevent 
lights from turning on if adequate 
daylight is available, but cannot turn 
lights off
PHOTOCELL W/ DIMMING (ADC)
• Photocell within sensor maintains total 
room light level by controlling levels of 
0-10 VDC dimmable ballasts
• Photocell also has full on/off control 
during periods of occupancy
•  Provides a second occupancy time-out 
period that enables the lights to go to a 
dim setting before turning off
  Note: LampMaximizer+ features not 
available with ADC option
LOW TEMP/HIGH HUMIDITY (LT)
•  Sensor electronics are coated for
  corrosion resistance 
• Operates down to -4º F (-20º C)
• Required for cooler/freezer applications
OVERVIEW 
Classrooms are ideal applications for the 
CM PDT 10 Series Extended Range 360º 
occupancy sensor. When mounted at 9 ft (2.74 
m), this sensor provides line of sight Passive 
Infrared (PIR) detection of walking type motions 
up to 28 ft (8.53 m) in all directions. Additionally, 
the  CM PDT 10 provides overlapping 
Microphonics™ technology to detect smaller 
motions and occupant movements that occur 
behind obstructions. When comparing small 
motion detection, the CM PDT 10 far out 
performs dual technology sensors that are 
specied with  2,000 ft
2 
of coverage. Spaces 
with low ceiling heights are also best covered 
by the CM PDT 10. 
SENSOR OPERATION
Sensors with Passive Dual Technology 
(PDT)  rst  see  motion  using  100%  digital 
Passive Infrared (PIR) detection and then 
engage Microphonics™ to hear sounds that 
indicate continued occupancy. This patented 
technology uses Automatic Gain Control 
(AGC) to dynamically self adapt a sensor 
to  its  environment  by  ltering  out  constant 
background noise and registering only noises 
typical of human activity. When occupancy is 
detected, a DC output goes high and can drive 
up to 200 mA of connected load. If needed, a 10 
second grace period also allows the lights to be 
voice reactivated after shutting off. The sensor 
is  powered  with  12-24  VAC/VDC  and  typically 
operates with a PP20 or MP20 power pack, 
enabling 20 Amp circuits to be controlled. 
LAMPMAXIMIZER
®
This sensor also contains patented 
LampMaximizer technology that allows users 
to aggressively target energy savings while 
still protecting lamp life. A minimum on timer, 
factory set at 15 minutes, helps preserve lamp 
life by eliminating all lamp cycles shorter than 
lamp manufacturers’ recommendations. A 
standard occupancy time delay is also present 
that ensures lights turn off (assuming minimum 
on timer has elapsed) if no occupancy is 
detected. This timer is factory set at 10 minutes 
to promote energy savings, but is adjustable 
between 30 seconds and 20 minutes. These 
adjustments can be done manually, through 
the  unit’s  push-button,  or  automatically  every 
two weeks through an advanced mode, called 
LampMaximizer+, that determines the optimum 
time delay in order to maximize both lamp life 
and energy savings. Additionally, this sensor 
maintains statistics on total lamp on time and 
number of cycles.
