Important Notes:
• Install in accordance with all local and national electrical codes.
• Use copper conductors only.
• Check to see that the device type and rating is suitable for the application.
• DO NOT install if product has any visible damage.
• If moisture or condensation is evident, allow the product to dry completely
before installation.
• Operate between 32 °F and 131 °F (0 °C and 55 °C), ambient.
• 0% to 90% humidity, non-condensing.
• For indoor use only.
• Athena Wireless Node with Sensor should be mounted to fixture in
orientation that makes it parallel to the floor when fixture is installed in ceiling.
• Clean only with soft, damp cloth; no chemical cleaners.
• DO NOT paint.
• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing.
Default Functionality
The device will perform an unprogrammed startup sequence
for up to 15 seconds on every power up where the lights
will fade between high-end, low-end and Off. It will change
between the supported color temperature extremes and will
then stay at 100% intensity and 4000 K (if supported) until the
device is added to an Athena system.
Occupancy, Vacancy, and Daylighting functionality (sensor only)
is disabled until the device is added to an Athena system.
For set-up, programming, and troubleshooting
with an Athena system, please refer to the
installation instructions included with the
Athena hub or at www.lutron.com
FCC / IC information
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules and Industry Canada
license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) This device may not cause interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause
undesired operation. Modifications not expressly approved by Lutron
Electronics Co., Inc. could void the user's authority to operate
this equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will
not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Re-orient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.
This equipment complies with FCC / ISED radiation exposure limits set forth
for an uncontrolled environment. The user should avoid prolonged exposure
within 20 cm of the antenna, which may exceed FCC/ISED radio frequency
exposure limits.

1. Connect Wires using Diagram Below
Driver
Signal and power wires
120 – 277 V~
(see Wiring Guide
section for
further details)
Driver
120 – 277 V~
Athena Wireless Node controls up to 5 drivers depending on supply current.
IEC 62386 Part 250 requires a minimum guaranteed supply current of 50 mA with a maximum of 250 mA.
Note: When using multiple drivers with integrated bus supplies, the "+" terminals from the drivers must be tied
together and the "-" terminals from the drivers must be tied together. Do NOT mix "+" and "-" when using multiple
drivers that are supplying power.
2. Install Athena Wireless Node
• Ensure knockout / cutout and adjacent surfaces are free from burrs, oil, chemicals, debris, etc.
• Insert Athena Wireless Node perpendicularly into knockout / cutout. If pre-wired, angle device into knockout to allow
wires to pass through, then hook remaining length of device into knockout.
• Push firmly on the Athena Wireless Node around the entire perimeter until it sits flush against the intended fixture
mounting surface. Do not push on the PIR lens to install the Athena Wireless Node.
• Apply power.
• Do not fully enclose within the metal fixture.
• Athena Wireless Node supports solid and stranded conductors of 26-18 AWG (0.2-0.75 mm

Troubleshooting
Symptom
Sensor does not respond to motion.
Lights do not dim or turn ON as expected.
Lights are unstable at low-end.
The "Raise" button on the associated control does not increase the
light level.
End-of-Line test does not affect color temperature of fixture.
*Note: These could apply to either the OEM or to the end customer.

3. Removing Athena Wireless Node
The Athena Wireless Node mounts in the fixture by way of two pairs of snaps on the device body.
To remove the device, a pry tool must be used to deflect the snaps inward and allow removal of the unit.
Tools required:
Small flathead screwdriver, stiff putty knife or equivalent prying tool.
Athena Wireless Node
Removal instructions:
Begin by identifying the preferred prying areas (indicated by arrows below) on the device:
For A-WN-D01-OCC:
If you have access to one or both preferred prying areas:
1. Using a small flathead screwdriver or other prying tool, place the prying edge of the tool at one of the preferred pry
points between the fixture surface and the lip of the device flange.
2. Keeping the edge of the pry tool under the flange lip, push directly inward toward the center of the device.
3. As you push inward, slowly pry upwards and outward with the pry tool. As the snap disengages, the edge of the unit
will pop up out of the fixture hole.
4. Repeat steps 1-3 at the opposite pry point to disengage the other snaps.
5. Once all snaps have disengaged, the unit may be pulled straight out by hand.
6. Remove wires from the unit by unscrewing the screw terminals on the connector.
If you do not have access to one or both preferred prying areas:
1. Using a small flathead screwdriver, place the tool edge between the fixture surface and lip of the device flange as
close to one of the preferred prying areas as possible.
2. Push the prying edge of the screwdriver inward until it is under the flange lip and stopped against the body of the device.
3. Gently twist the screwdriver blade to lift the flange. The nearest snap location should pop out of the fixture hole.

).
4. Repeat steps 1-3 on the opposite side of the device to disengage the other snaps.
5. Once snaps have disengaged, the unit may be pulled straight out by hand.
6. Remove wires from the unit by unscrewing the screw terminals on the connector.
Solution
Athena Wireless Node is not associated with an Athena system. Please follow programming instructions to associate device to an
Athena system.
Ensure that control lines are wired properly.
Verify that the driver with self-powered DALI link has the supply activated OR auxiliary DC supply is in use. Contact driver manufacturer for details.
Adjust low-end trim. Refer to Athena documentation on www.lutron.com.
The lights cannot be raised above the Daylighting light level using a control. If it is critical to override the daylight level, disable daylighting
from the Athena application.
Color temperature control is not supported in 0-10 V control applications. If using DALI, confirm that driver supports color
temperature control via IEC62386-209.
