Lutron can assist in the specification and layout of its complete line of occupancy, vacancy, and daylight sensors by
providing sensor layouts. With a Basic Layout, our designers can help recommend a new layout or they can verify coverage
of sensors already specified. Lutron's Sensor Layout and Tuning Service adds an additional level of support, providing Lutron
sensor placement and after-occupancy sensor tuning.
Basic Layout Service
Lutron's Basic Layout Service is provided at no charge and is intended to help our customers specify Lutron daylight and
occupancy sensors. Actual placement of sensors and sensor modules remains the responsibility of the Electrical Engineer
and/or Contractor and is based on field verification of site conditions and coordination of trades. Sensors and sensor
modules must be installed in accordance with manufacturer's requirements.
Sensor Layout and Tuning Service (LSC-SENS-LT)
When the Lutron Sensor Layout and Tuning service is purchased, Lutron will take responsibility for Lutron-provided sensor
placement and performance. Lutron will inform the installing contractor where to locate the daylight and occupancy
sensors (both wired and wireless). During system startup, Lutron may provide recommendations to the installing contractor
to relocate the sensors in accordance with the installation instructions. Lutron will provide a rough sensor calibration. Once
the building is occupied, Lutron will return up to two times to perform fine-tuning.
Lutron's Sensor Design/Layout Tool is AutoCAD based. To ensure the most accurate layout, please provide the following in
AutoCAD (.dwg)* format:
-Reflected Ceiling Plan
-HVAC plan
Other files that may be helpful include:
-Furniture, Fixture, and Equipment Plan (FF&E)
-Fixture schedule (can be PDF)
*Construction documents sent in other formats may result in a delay of the completion of the layout and may not be
accepted for use with these layout services.
To request a sensor layout, e-mail a completed request form (page 2) and the appropriate construction documents to
occsensorlayouts@lutron.com. Once received, a designer will contact you within one business day with your estimated
completion date. Typically, projects are completed within 7-10 days from receipt of necessary job documentation.
