Post by: sirj01 on May 10, 2009, 09:01:33 PM

ok this is my first pos...

I have some project with my school (automation in class rooms), im gonna use the motion sensor MS14A, transceiver TM751 and wall switch WS13A(which works with fluorescent lights, is that right??)... my question is:

is there any way to disable/override the MS14A sensor in some ocations?? , what if i need to use a video beam for a lecture and i need a dark room? if the sensor is working the lights will keep turning on...
 
thanks for your help

P.S.: is there any switch for fluorescent lights dfferent from WS13A ??

 >! Welcome to the Forum !!!!

The only way I know to override a motion sensor is if you have Active Home Pro. Then you can make a Macro and a Phantom Switch to override the motion sensor.

I use this with a few of my motion sensors......

thats a good idea, but what you mean with "Phantom switch" ???

btw, is there any other switch (wall switch) or device to control fluorescent lights? any ideas? i cant find the WS13A from here (south america)

thanks and regards
