anyone know of any websites with wiring diagrams on low voltage motion sensor lights with 3 way switches. ??

and motors and controls stop start.

and low voltage card readers? and door strikes. thanks

Why would you want 3-ways on motion controlled lights ? If the sensor doesn't see motion, the switch still isn't going to turn it on. Are you looking for an override for the motion ?

thanks for the response.

The reason im looking for this is because i was on a project and saw a room with tha motion sensor and also on 3 way switches. I do believe they wired up to override the sensor. Ijust wanted to be sure. Thanks.

As long as the motion sensor doesn't malfunction, it shouldn't really need a bypass (on override), so I'd have to take the purpose of the switches as off override. Just place the 3-way pair in series with the motion sensor, in either lhe line common lead or the load common lead.

It is also possible to have an automatic/manual switch. For example, on-off-auto, like some car dome lights or the fan switch on a forced-air HVAC thermostat.
