GETTING STARTED

OVERVIEW
The DLA system transforms fixtures from third-party manufacturers into an intelligent light with high-performance sensors, power
metering, full-range dimming, and software optimization capabilities.
There are two categories of DLA components: DLA sensors and DLA adapters.
• DLA sensors measure occupancy and ambient light. They also control connected fixtures through a direct link with Philips SR
(Sensor Ready) drivers, DALI drivers, or through 0-10 V adapters (for older 0-10 V LED drivers). DLA sensors communicate
wirelessly with the LightRules system to receive commands and send data.
• DLA adapters measure fixture power consumption. They also convert the digital commands from DLA sensors into an analog
0-10 V signal for use with 0-10 V dimming LED drivers.
Note that this document covers DLA sensors. Please refer to the DLA Adapter Installation Instructions for adapter setup.
SENSOR TYPES
DLA-R (Recessed Mount)
Use the DLA-R when you want to blend the sensor into an environment by mounting flush to a junction box or
a ceiling tile.
DLA-E (Philips EvoKit)
The DLA-E is designed to install in the mounting slot of the Philips EvoKit SR retrofit kit.
DLA-S (Sur face Mount)
Featuring an IP65 rating, use the DLA-S in challenging environments. DLA-S mounts to a ceiling surface or
NEMA 4 or weatherproof junction box.
DLA-I (Integrated Mount)
The DLA-I mounts directly to into any third-party fixture — the housing mounts inside and the lens assembly
extends externally.
HELPFUL HINTS
• Install the DLA sensor in a manner so as to provide a clear field of view for the lens.
• Do not mount the DLA sensor within 5 ft (1.5 m) of an air vent.
• Consult the DLA specification sheets for detail regarding mounting heights and occupancy sensor coverage patterns.
