Occupancy sensor not working.
A motion detector basically consists of a motion sensor for motion detection and an electrical switch.

To do that it needs a path to neutral.
This post looks at how they work.
The sensors use infrared ultrasonic microwave or other technology the term encompasses devices as different as pir sensors hotel room keycard locks and smart meters occupancy sensors are typically used to save energy.
Green wire is not connected to ground.
Acuity brands provides a comprehensive selection of occupancy sensors.
Generally this sensor unites a motion detector using a timer as well as a light switch to activate and deactivate the lights as they are not required.
Some models require neutral others require ground which is used to draw power but the current is less than 1ma is considered harmless.
How occupancy sensors work.
Probably is will not work without the ground.

The lamp connected to it lights up.
Clicking this will make more experts see the question and we will remind you when it gets answered.
An occupancy sensor is an electronic sensor used for different purposes like to improve the security of the office as well as home reduces the energy utilization for lights in empty spaces.
This seemed to work for me.
Connect green wire to ground.
I actually returned the 1st unit and swapped it out for a second because i assumed it was a faulty unit.
In genral it does not matter whether the motion detector switches an incandescent bulb or led light for example.
I had the same problem.
After the second unit behaved the same way i did some research and found myself here.
Occupancy sensors require standby power to operate the sensor when the load is off.
Those blinking red lights on lights and light switches in bathrooms hallways and conference rooms are probably not some government camera spying on you but rather an occupancy sensor.
An occupancy sensor is an indoor motion detecting device used to detect the presence of a person to automatically control lights or temperature or ventilation systems.
If the sensor detects a movement the switch is activated and the output voltage is switched on.
