Overview
e-Scene is an innovative keypad for lighting control of areas such as offices, meeting rooms, auditoriums, etc. This unit can control up to five lighting areas independently with On, Off and dimming functions for each area, optimising power consumption levels in real time. Each channel can control a motor for curtain or blind management, which provides for individual positioning as desired.
The keypad includes five memory locations to configure and apply different lighting scenarios, and can also control blind or curtain motor positioning, covering at all times lighting and curtain control functions according to user requirements.
Device control may also be performed using a remote control, which provides exactly the same functionality as the keypad. Please refer to the e-Scene Infrared literature.
e-Scene is designed to operate in conjunction with any e-Controller series product. These devices are the receivers that will collect the transmitted signal and perform accordingly.
No additional wiring is required to install this solution, dramatically reducing installation time and cost, providing an optimal solution for building refurbishment or rehabilitation.
No computer or special software is necessary to configure the unit, rendering this solution even more versatile and easy to install.
Based on the ISO/IEC (LonWorks®) communication standard, this device may be integrated into any LonMark® system in the market.

The e-Scene keypad includes 5 channels allowing to control 5 independent receivers (or independent groups of receivers). Each channel may be controlled as desired, providing for activation or deactivation of a remote contact or for light dimming if the channel is associated to an adjustable lighting control ballast.
The unit includes ON/OFF/UP/DOWN pushbuttons that allow turning on and off and dimming luminaires. If the channel to be controlled includes curtain or blind motors, the ON/OFF keys will perform the complete raising up and lowering functions of the motor; while the UP/DOWN keys will allow positioning the curtain precisely as desired.
For lighting/blind scenario control, 5 keys are available to store luminaire dimming level and curtain position. The REC key allows storing the scenario at any time, as required by the user. This REC key may be blocked using a key sequence (please refer to the installation sheet), in order to prevent the storing of scenarios. Pressing a scenario key at any time will automatically apply the selected scenario, setting each lighting channel at the predefined dimming level and positioning each curtain/blind at the corresponding level.
Installation
e-Scene installation is very simple since the unit is supplied from the mains and no additional wiring is required to connect e-Controller receivers to the keypad; the unit takes advantage of the existing mains wiring to transmit data to these receivers.
The keypad unit is installed in a BTicino, ref. no 506E flush mount back box. Please follow the guidance provided in the Installation Sheet.
Integration
Device commissioning may be performed in either of two ways:
1) Self installation: the device includes an advanced self installation algorithm that provides for device commissioning with no computer or special software required. A simple key sequence enters a programming mode, allowing each channel to be configured to one or more e-Controller receivers present in the building.
Self installation information may be found in the Configuration Sheets, available in the download section.
2) Installation with LNS compatible tools: the device includes an XIF file documented network interface that allows integration into any LonWorks system. The device is LonMark compatible and includes the standard functional profiles as prescribed by the standards; they allow seamless integration of the device into any LonWorks network where equipment by other manufacturers may be present.
