  • Page 5: System Specifications

    Introduction System Specifications LCP128 is a lighting control system designed for commercial buildings. It consists of up to 8 dimming panels and up to 32 control stations. Control stations can be wallstations, key switches, contact closure input and output devices (OMX-AV), contact closure output devices (OMX-CCO-8), or building management system interfaces (OMX-RS232).
  • Page 6 (OMX-RS232). Emergency Power Mode When a LCP128 panel is placed into emergency power mode (loss of normal power), circuits are changed to emergency settings and remain at those settings until the controller exits emergency power mode (return of normal power). All control station inputs and time clock events are ignored while in emergency power mode.

  • Page 14: Step-By-Step Programming Instructions

    Step by Step Programming Instructions Overview Programming your LCP128 system is done in seven steps. 1. Panel Configuration This step selects a language for the controller LCD and configures the load setup. For multiple panel systems, this step also assigns panel addresses and configures the number of circuits in each panel.

  • Page 15: Step 1: Panel Configuration

    For example, if Panel 1 has 12 circuits, the first circuit in Panel 2 will be circuit 13 on the LCP128 controller. The figure below shows a sample system. Note: If your system has only one panel, you do not need to set the panel configuration. The panel address, first system circuit number, and number of circuits are preprogrammed.
