6107
Motion Sensing
3-Way Wall Switch
The 6107 Motion Sensing Wall Switch dectects motion to turn on
lights for an adjustable amount of time. A built-in photo cell can be set
to keep lights off when the lights aren't needed. The unit has excel-
lent sensitivity and a wide 150° detection range. It can be used with
incandescent lighting as well as rapid start fluorescent lighting. (Not
for use with electronic ballasts).
The 6107 can be used to replace either a 3-way wall switch or a
single pole switch. Some codes require installation by a qualified
electrician.
Features include:
• 150° motion detection angle
• Adjustable on-time from 5 sec. to 20 min.
• Adjustable photocell
• Works with incandescent and rapid start fluorescent lighting (Not
for use with electronic ballasts
• Works with motors up to 1/8 hp.
• Slide switch selectable OFF, ON AND AUTO modes.
WARNING: Turn power off at the circuit breaker before wiring.
Note: a "3-way" circuit controls lights from two separate
switches. If you want to use this product in a single
switch circuit or if you want to install more than one
motion sensing wall switch, see page 6
• Remove the decorative coverplate (secured by two
screws).
• Remove Control Cover. (Press in with screwdriver.
Swing out cover to remove to access adjustable
screws.)
• Choose which switch will be replaced and remove it.
• For easier re-wiring later, mark the house wiring with
tape indicating where the wire had been connected.
• Do not connect to neutral wire or damage to unit will
occur and warranty will be void.
• Connect the 6107 Motion Sensing Switch as shown in the diagram below:
• Mount the 6107 into the junction box with the two junction box screws.
• Turn the circuit breaker back on.
• Preset the controls: Time to minutes, Light level adjustment fully clockwise. Cover the lens with masking tape.
• With the motion sensor in the "ON" position, turn the remote switch on and off several times. Go to step 1, 2,
or 3, depending on results.
WARNING: Turn power off at circuit breaker prior to making any wiring changes.

There are 6 preset selections for the amount
of time the lights stay on: Test (5 seconds), 1,
5, 10, 15, and 20 minutes. Use a small, phil-
lips screw driver to adjust the TIME control.
Turn the TIME control until it “snaps” into the
desired time position.
Replace control panel cover and install the decorative wall plate. In installations where the Cooper motion
sensor switch is combined with other switches or outlets on an expanded box, a combination wall plate will
need to be purchased. Various combination wall plates are available at Home Centers and Electrical Supply
Stores.
Slide the switch a couple of times to make sure it operates freely.
When the light in the room is at the
level you want the lights to turn on,
set the switch to the AUTO position.
Put the TIME control to the 5 sec-
ond position.
Put the LIGHT control to the mini-
mum dark (fully counter-clockwise)
position.
Wait for the lights to turn off.
Turn the LIGHT adjustment clock-
wise in very small steps and wait 2
seconds before moving your hand in
front of the sensor. Repeat until the
lights controlled by the sensor come
on. The light will now come on when
the light level is at or below the pres-
ent level and motion is detected.
To adjust the photocell:
MODE Selection Switch
Moving the switch selects one of three modes of operation: OFF, AUTO, ON
OFF: Lights stay off.
AUTO: Lights come on for time set when motion is detected and the light level is below the set level or when
3-way switch is manually switched.
ON: Lights stay on continuously. Flipping 3-way switch has no effect.

The sensor can be prevented from turning on lights
when there is already enough light in the room. Use
a small screw driver to set the light level using this
diagram as a guide. In the fully clockwise position,
the sensor turns on lights even in full daylight. In the
fully counter-clockwise poition, the sensor only turns
on lights when the surrounding light level is very low.

YOUR COOEPRWIRING DEVICES ELECTRIC ASSEMBLED PRODUCT TWO YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY
For a period of 2 years from the date of purchase, Cooper Wiring Devices will replace or repair the motion
sensing switch provided that it has not been subject to abuse, improper installation or improper use, and is
returned prepaid to Cooper Wiring Devices Quality Control Department at 203 Cooper Circle, Peachtree
City, GA 30269. If the product has been discontinued, replacement will be made with the nearest available
equivalent model. This warranty does not cover consumables (such as fuses). Proof of purchase in the form
of a bill of sale or receipted invoice that shows that the item is within the applicable warranty period must be
presented to obtain the repair or replacement provided by the warranty. Repair or replacement as provided
under this warranty is the exclusive remedy of the customer. Cooper Wiring Devices shall not be liable for
any incidental or consequential damages for breach of any express or implied warranty on any of its prod-
ucts. Except to the extent limited or prohibited by applicable law, any implied warranty of merchantability or
fitness for a particular purpose on this product is limited in duration to the duration of this warranty. Some
states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or allow limitations on
how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations may not apply to you. This warranty gives you
specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
GENERAL APPLICATION INFORMATION
The detector is more sensitive to motion across the front of the sensor than to motion towards the sensor.
The detector senses heat in motion and possible heat sources that change temperature quickly. Therefore, to
avoid false triggering, avoid placing the sensor where it will be aimed at air conditioners, heaters, and other
sources of heat or cold.
NEW APPLICATION
Choose a location where the motion sensor has a clear view of
the entire area where occupant motion may occur.
RETROFIT APPLICATION
Motion sensing switch will replace existing wall switch. Use only
where the existing switch location provides a clear view of the
occupied area.
Included are: • The sensor switch • Cover plate • 4 wire connectors • 2 large screws • 2 small screws.
