Basic Configuration
1. Setting Detection Ranges
Define the 3D presence detection area by adjusting the mmWave sensor’s spatial boundaries.
*Note: To prevent the detection of ceiling fans and small pets, it may be beneficial to set the Z-Axis settings to -100 & 100 as shown below.
Parameter | Axis | Description | Default | Range (cm) |
101 | Z-Axis ↓ | Minimum height (floor boundary) | -300 (-100*) | -600 to 600 |
102 | Z-Axis ↑ | Maximum height (ceiling boundary) | 300 (100*) | -600 to 600 |
103 | X-Axis ← | Minimum width (left boundary) | -600 | -600 to 600 |
104 | X-Axis → | Maximum width (right boundary) | 600 | -600 to 600 |
105 | Y-Axis ⬅ | Minimum depth (closest detection) | 0 | 0 to 600 |
106 | Y-Axis ➡ | Maximum depth (farthest detection) | 600 | 0 to 600 |
Tip: If presence is being detected too close to a wall, hallway, or furniture, reduce the corresponding axis range.
2. Set Sensitivity
Parameter 112 – mmWave Detection Sensitivity
Adjust how sensitive the sensor is to presence:0: Low – Ignores subtle presence1: Medium – Balanced sensitivity2: High (default) – Detects even slight presence (ideal for continuous occupancy)
3. Change the Target Speed
Parameter 113 – mmWave Detection Delay
Controls how quickly the sensor responds after detecting presence:0: Low (5s delay)1: Medium (1s delay)2: Fast (0.2s) (default)
Use this to prevent overly fast triggering or tune responsiveness based on how the room is used.
4. Change the Detection Timeout
Parameter 114 – mmWave Time Out
Sets how long the load remains on after presence is no longer detected.Default: 10 seconds
Range: 0 to 4,294,967,295 seconds
Other Notable Parameters
Parameter 110 – Light On Presence Behavior
Defines how the switch should behave in response to presence:
Option | Behavior |
| Disabled – Presence does not control the load |
| Auto On/Off when Occupied (default) |
| Auto Off when Vacant |
| Auto On when Occupied |
| Auto On/Off when Vacant |
| Auto On when Vacant |
| Auto Off when Occupied |
Suggestion: Start with 1 for typical occupancy-based lighting. Try other modes to suit your environment.
Parameter 111 – Interference Area Configuration
Use this setting to eliminate false presence detection caused by fans, curtains, or similar repetitive motion.
To Set an Interference Area:
Make sure the interfering object (e.g., ceiling fan) is running.
Leave the room so no actual presence is detected.
In your hub, select the option labeled “Set Interference Area.”
The calibration will complete almost instantly. (The switches LED bar will begin to flash orange for 30 seconds. After re-entering the room you can look for this behavior as confirmation that the interference area was programmed).
Now, when that object is in motion, it will be ignored by the sensor. You can use this feature alongside range settings (101–106) for best results.
Option | Command |
| Set Interference Area |
| Clear Interference Area |
| Factory Reset mmWave Module. This option will reset the mmWave module, interference area, and the mmWave relevant parameters (i.e. P101-P119). The LED bar on the switch will flash Red indicating that the mmWave reset was successful. |
Parameter 117 – Room Size Preset
Use this to apply predefined presence zones quickly:
Note: You can also set a preset room size by using the button combinations.
Note: You can also set a preset room size by using the button combinations. Hold Down + Tap Config 5x. This will result in a violet 1/2/4/5/7(Number of LEDs lit up) and will represent the room sizes 1/2/3/4/5 (respectively).
Option | Room Size |
| Custom (User-defined) (default) |
| X-Small (X: −100 to 100, Y: 0 to 200, Z: −100 to 100) |
| Small (X: −160 to 160, Y: 0 to 280, Z: −100 to 100) |
| Medium (X: −210 to 210, Y: 0 to 360, Z: −100 to 100) |
| Large (X: −260 to 260, Y: 0 to 400, Z: −100 to 100) |
| X-Large (X: −310 to 310, Y: 0 to 460, Z: −100 to 100) |
Tip: Start with a preset, then fine-tune using the range parameters for precise control.
Tips for Use
Start simple: Use presets first, then customize as needed.
Use automations: Adjust presence behavior for different times of day.
Tame interference: Use Parameter 111 to eliminate false presence triggers.
Iterate & test: Observe how the switch behaves in real-world conditions and refine ranges.
