Page 35: Parameter Window X: General
In these parameter windows the properties of the Constant lighting control are parameterised. • Slave mode in lighting control: The output of the light controller is defined as a slave. This slave output must then be forcibly operated by a master. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 36 Additional function runs: The Control controls, the Staircase light runs and the Slave mode receives brightness values from the master. With corresponding parameterisation of the switching commands the additional functions can be set to standby mode. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 37 With this parameter the response of the switching state can be inverted. With an inverted response the object Status switch features the following values: 0 = lighting (output) is on 1 = lighting (output) is off © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 38 As a result the bus load can be reduced significantly. This defines the time intervals at which the brightness values are sent on the bus. The disable time only relates to the status objects Status Brightness value and Brightness value. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...

Page 53: Parameter Window X: Presets
With the first recall of a preset the current state (brightness value) is stored. At the same time; it does not matter which of the four presets are recalled. Further preset recalls do not initiate a renewed save. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 54 With the parameterisation restore value before first preset call or reset to parameterised value before preset 2, saving of the preset concerned has no effect. The saved value is not recalled but rather the parameterised function is undertaken. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 55 This parameter enables the object Set preset 1 and 2. It is thus possible to store the currently set brightness value as the new preset value. Telegram value 0 saves preset 1, whereas telegram value 1 saves preset 2. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 56: Parameter Window X: Scene (1) To X: Scene (6)
If a scene number is received via the object 8 bit scene, the stored scene value (brightness value) is recalled.

Page 71: Parameter Window X: Control Dynamics
This parameter defines the step time of a control step in the start up phase. The smaller the step time, the faster that the control steps are applied with their increment size (brightness). The Light Control quickly approaches the setpoint. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 72 Constant lighting control Control deviation for high increments (max. control step) Options: 10…30…255 This value represents the control divergence (difference between the setpoint and actual value) up to which the maximum increment can be controlled. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 73 In this way continuous control with the respective changes in brightness is avoided. This generates a smoother and less abrupt response and considerably reduces the bus load with a master/slave control. For further information see: Constant lighting control © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 74: Parameter Window X: Control Operating
The light control is in standby mode and recommences with light control via an ON command or when a telegram with the value 1 is again received on the activate control object. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 75 The light control can be reactivated by an ON telegram or via the object activate control. • Restart control with brightness value: With activated light control the switch on brightness and light control are restarted with an ON command. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 76 The last brightness value is the constant brightness value which existed when light control was switched off. If no last brightness value is stored, a 100 % or maximum brightness is assumed. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 77 This function should re-establish the same level of lighting for persons who leave the room and return after a brief period. It is particularly useful if the lighting is automatically switched by a presence or motion detector. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...

Page 117 This means that a characteristic adjustment must be set in the output of the Light Controller or in the external slave. In a master/slave combination of LR/S x.16.1 and DG/S 1.1 or DG/S 8.1 a characteristic adjustment may not be transferred to the DG/S. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 118: Constant Lighting Control
In this case the artificial light is completely switched off by the Light Controller. If the level of daylight is not sufficient for the setpoint, artificial lighting is added until the setpoint brightness is achieved. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 119 This behaviour ensures that only energy necessary to ensure the optimum level of brightness is used. The energy consumption can be reduced further ® if additional presence detectors, e.g. ABB i-bus Presence Detectors BW/S or Presence Detector PM/A are integrated into the system. In this way the light and the light control can only be switched on if there are persons located in the room.
Page 120: Constant Lighting Control Properties
Interference of the artificial lighting calibration caused by daylight has the effect that the Light Controller assumes that the illumination can produce a larger brightness level than is actually the case. The Light Controller will set a lower level of brightness in control operation. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 121 If the user returns after a short time (within the adjustable follow-up time) the lighting is automatically set again to the maximum brightness value and the light control remains active. The temporary setpoint set by the user, e.g. by dimming, remains active. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 122 Further luminaries can be integrated into the constant lighting control which are not directly connected to the Light Controller. These for example, can be ® DALI lamps via an ABB i-bus KNX DALI Gateway or a dimmer. These components are controlled directly as so-called slaves directly by the Light Controller (= master).

When this constant brightness value has set, the object Enable calibration must be used to switch the objects Calibration lighting and Calibration daylight in a ready to receive state by sending a telegram with the value 1. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 125 The end of artificial lighting calibration is indicated when the value 0 from the object Calibration lighting is sent on the bus. The T flag must be set for this purpose. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...

Page 128 For this purpose the burn-in time (see section 4.7.4) of the luminaries must be considered and already completed. Consider also that some fluorescent lamps only develop their full lighting intensity a few seconds after being switched © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 129 The calibration should be performed preferably at two measurement points, e.g. at a setpoint of 500 lx, the light control should be performed in daylight from about 200 lx and 400 lx. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 130 This is independent of if the calibration has been performed manually or automatically. The artificial lighting and daylight calibration must be performed again with a change of the Light Sensor arrangement. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 131: Effect Of Ageing On Lamps
During the burn-in time which usually lasts between 50 and 100 hours, the luminaries must be operated at 100 % brightness. The burn-in time of a luminaire can be obtained from the manufacturer. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 132: How Does Brightness Detection Function
In principle, simplified light control can appear as follows. In the following example, the setpoint brightness is achieved starting from an actual brightness level to a setpoint brightness level in three steps: Brightness Setpoint brightness Y = increment Actual brightness 3 x step time Time © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 133 Dynamics. The parameter window X: Control Dynamics is visible X: Control if in the parameter window the parameter Changing brightness X: Control during lighting control is set to individual setting. The parameterised variables are written in the following illustration. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
Page 134 In this way continuous control with the respective changes in brightness is avoided. This generates smoother and less abrupt response and considerably reduces the bus load with a master/slave control. © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...

Page 136: Slave Mode
If the master sends the brightness value 0 the lighting is switched off. The behaviour of the slave mode after bus voltage recovery can be parameterised. ® An integration of further ABB i-bus components in the Light Controller can typically appear as follows: © 2008 ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT GmbH...
