THE SENSOR SWITCH ADVANTAGE IN DAYLIGHTING CONTROLSensor Switch, the industry leader in Occupancy Sensor Products & Technology, has engineered Photocell Technology and Dimming Control to a higher level in a new line of Daylighting Control sensors that achieve maximum energy savings at a fraction of the cost of competitive solutions.

PRACTICAL CONTROL SOLUTIONSOur daylighting control solutions are available in stand-alone sensors or incorporated into our occupancy sensor products. This approach allows the unique requirements of every room and application to be filled by the most practical and cost effective solution. • Automatic On/Off Switching (-PC) • Automatic Dimming Control (-ADC) • Automatic Stepped Dimming (-DZ) • Dual Zoned Control (-DZ) ADVANCED SENSOR INTELLIGENCE Several features make our sensors the most intelligent in the industry and have allowed us to improve upon traditional daylight harvesting methods. • Distinguishes between controlled light and ambient light • Sensor controls are fully integrated, removing the need for separate & expensive control units • Integrated foot candle measurement, each sensor literally is a foot candle meter • Automatically adapts to changes in room lighting conditions (lamp aging / burn out, furniture alterations)

INSTALLER FRIENDLYBesides easing the stress on the pocket book, we’ve also eased the stress of the installer by simplifying the previously complicated task of calibrating photocell products. • Automatic Set-Point Programming requires only one installation visit • Calibration can be done at any time of day & under any lighting conditions • Integrated 100 hour override timer simplifies lamp burn-in • Push-button operation, no tools or analog adjustments required

A No daylight is available; the lights stay on as normal. B Sufficient daylight is present to maintain the set-point without any contribution from the lights; the lights are switched off. This level is equal to the set-point plus the deadband. C Daylight levels fall below the set-point; the lights switch back on.

A No daylight is available; the dimmable ballast operates at full bright level (10 VDC). B Increasing daylight begins to contribute to the overall light level; the ballast is dimmed proportionally. C Sufficient daylight is present to maintain the set-point; the ballast is held at its full dim setting (0 VDC).D Daylight levels drop into the dimming range (deadband); the dim level of the ballast is reduced proportionally.E Daylight levels fall below the set-point; the ballast is back to full bright level (10 VDC).

C Sufficient daylight is present to maintain the set-point; the lights are switched off.D Daylight levels drop into the dimming range (deadband); the lights are switched on with the ballast set at its full dim level. E Daylight levels continue to drop; the dim level of the ballast is reduced proportionally.F Daylight levels fall below the set-point; the ballast is back to full bright level (10 VDC).

SENSOR SWITCH SOLUTIONS

Automatic On/Off Switching (-PC)The most basic and low cost daylighting control solution, this method can be implemented with standard ballasts.

Automatic Dimming Control (-ADC)Also called Continuous Dimming, this method controls 0-10 VDC dimmable ballasts.

Sensor Switch Advantage: While other daylighting control solutions provide On/Off Switching and Continuous Dimming in separate discrete products, Sensor Switch offers sensors that combine these methods together for an even more effective solution.!

Photocell Definition: A light-responding electronic component that enables measurement of incident radiant energy (daylight & artificial light). Sensor Switch Advantage: To ensure a more uniform response from the photocells used in our sensors we utilize a sophisticated calibration procedure during our manufacturing process.

Set-Point Definition: The target light level that is to be maintained. The function of a daylighting control sensor is to measure the amount of daylight available, compare it with the set-point, and then adjust the level of the controlled lighting accordingly. Sensor Switch Advantage: Since selection of the proper set-point is crucial to proper operation, we have enabled our sensors to automatically find its optimum set-point.

Deadband Definition: The light level contributed by the artificial lights being controlled plus a safety range. Sensor Switch Advantage: Our sensors track the deadband in order to ensure that changes in room lighting conditions (lamp aging / burn out, furniture alterations) are compensated for in the sensor’s operation.

Closed Loop Operation Definition: When the photocell in a sensor can view and provide feedback on the lights it controls. Conversely, “Open Loop” operation occurs when the sensor does not have feedback on the controlled lights. Sensor Switch Advantage: Our daylighting control sensors can operate open or close loop.

INSTALLATION & CALIBRATION

Automatic Lamp Burn-in • Integrated 100 hour override timer • LED blinks continuously to indicate burn-in mode engaged • Sensor runs automatic set-point programming when 100 hours has elapsed

Set-point Programming • Automatic set-point programming enables the sensor to self-calibrate • Exact value selected (in foot candles) can be read out from the sensor via a series of LED flashes • Additional Manual and Incremental programming modes provide Override Control

DAYLIGHTING CONTROL BASICS

Beware of daylighting control solutions that require:

• Calibration “under suitable daylight conditions” • The room to be in “move-in condition” • Two light level readings done during day & during night

Sensor Switch Advantage: To install a Sensor Switch DaylightIng Control Sensor simply engage the Automatic Lamp Burn-in or Set-Point Programming mode and walk away!

Dual Zone ControlDaylight contribution diminishes as the distance from the source (windows) increases. To address this fact, our Dual Zone (-DZ) option provides control of a second zone of lights via the Percentage Offset operational mode. This mode uses a relative set-point for the second zone that is a user selected percentage higher than the primary zone’s set-point. The sensor is installed in the first zone, and runs in normal closed loop operation. The second zone runs open loop. This operational mode is ideal for classroom applications with individually controlled parallel rows of lights that are different distances from the windows.

Stepped Dimming ControlProviding automatic daylighting control in rooms wired for stepped dimming (also called Inboard/Outboard, or A/B) is possible using our “Duo” operational mode. In this mode the sensor determines the necessary On/Off combination of lights in order to maintain adequate lighting. For example, in a dual switched three lamp fixture the sensor learns the light contribution provided by each of the combinations. Then as daylight conditions change, the necessary lamps will be switched On or Off as needed to achieve desired lighting levels (set-point).

OPERATIONAL MODES

Inhibit Only OperationIn this mode occupancy sensors with daylight override can prevent the lights from turning on, however once they are needed and turn on, the daylighting control functionality is disabled until the occupancy timer expires and turns the lights out.

Occupancy Sensors w/ Daylight OverrideIn these sensors, the presence of sufficient daylight can override the “lights ON” state caused by occupancy (see graph on right).

Sensor Switch Advantage: Occupancy sensors with daylighting controls minimize cost and footprint requirements while maximizing energy savings.
