These application notes provide information on how to apply the e-Controller product series to existing installations for light dimming. The benefit of the e Controller devices is that no new additional wiring is required in the installation to operate, since the existing mains network is used for control purposes.
When installing e-Controller units, a single electric wire may be used to transmit multiple signals, which when received act only on the luminaire belonging to each zone.
Specially designed for building and small to medium facility refurbishment and rehabilitation, e-Controller may integrate into any LonWorks network using any compatible LNS tool such as NL200 or LonMaker, amongst others. The device may be configured using a USB network interface with a mains coupling device; required network variable connections may be made, for use with the e-Scene pushbutton pad or the e-Multisensor PLC occupancy and luminosity sensors.
An advanced self installation algorithm is included that enables the installer to commission the unit through a pushbutton located on its front, allocating it to an e Scene pushbutton pad or an e-Multisensor PLC device; no computer or special software is required for commissioning .
The use of a robust and reliable communication device chip, together with the LonWorks data transmission technology, ensures unique communication quality, free from noise or interference issues.
