System behaviour on switching ON
A brief flash of the feedback LED indicates that the default
parameters are being loaded. The feedback LED then
lights up for approx. 0.7 seconds to indicate that the DALI
electronic ballast is being configured. The relay is activat-
ed to configure the DALI electronic ballast. Once the elec-
tronic ballasts have been configured, the lights switch to
basic light level mode while no movement
is being detected or switch OFF if basic light level is
activated or there is a sufficient level of ambient light.
Remote Group Setting
Using the light's Remote Group Setting function, the
settings for all lights within the overall group can be select-
ed at just one light. The value last changed is sent to the
overall group by pressing the "send last" button within
5 seconds of making the last entry. Pressing the "send all"
button sends the entire parameter set.
Behaviour on making remote control entries
The system only responds to commands from the RC 10
remote control or Smart Remote. Pressing any button on
the RC 10 remote control exits both main light-level as
well as basic light-level mode. The group is dimmed to
setup light level to prevent glare and let you see the feed-
back LED. Each press of the button within 5 seconds lea-
ves setup activated for a further 5 seconds for making
additional settings. All parameters (including those chan-
ged) are saved after the 5-second timeout. This process is
confirmed by a single flash of the feedback LED. Lights
then switch back to normal mode.
Teaching lights to learn ambient light level (Teach In)
For this purpose, lighting is switched OFF throughout the
group so that ambient light level can be measured.
The sensor-switched light being programmed first waits
for the DALI telegram to run through, then checks the
ambient light level before taking this as the new threshold.
Pressing the "send last" button after the "teach" button
lets each sensor-switched light learn its own particular
ambient light level.
Switching ON to main light level
If a movement is detected by a sensor-switched light that
is switched OFF and the level of ambient light has fallen
below the ambient light level threshold for this sensor-
switched light or for a sensor-switched light within one of
the neighbouring sub-groups or within the overall group
(swarm mode vs. group mode), swarming or the overall
group is switched ON. If a movement is detected while
basic light level is activated, the main light level is activat-
ed irrespective of ambient light level.
Switching OFF in sufficient daylight
As the light-level sensor is unable to measure ambient
light level in main light level mode because of glare and
artificial light reflecting on the luminaire diffuser, continu-
ous movements would not allow the luminaires to switch
OFF even if there were to be sufficient daylight. The fol-
lowing logic has been implemented to prevent all of the
group's lights remaining switched ON in a busy environ-
ment with frequent movement:
If no movement is detected for 5 minutes in main light
level mode, the overall group will switch OFF to check
the level of ambient light. Before the lighting is switched
OFF completely, it is reduced to warning dimming level
(20%) for 10 seconds to warn any persons present (e.g.
in an area not covered by the sensor). The ambient light
level is measured as soon as all luminares have switched
OFF. If movement is detected while a light is switched
OFF, it immediately switches back ON again. If the ambi-
ent light level is above the threshold, the basic light level
is activated or the lighting is switched OFF (depending on
basic light-level function).
Multiple swarms in main light-level mode
The system supports the starting of several swarms at the
same time as main light is switched on. It is also possible
for several swarms to cascade.
Several swarms within a group can be activated at the
same time.

tioning or the detection zone you
have set is too small
