Product Overview
Echoflex's lighting controllers use wireless technology to monitor the room's
environment eliminating much of the wiring normally required for distributed
control. This translates into quick installations with less disruption to occupants
allowing facilities to accelerate retrofit schedules and start saving money
sooner. The lighting controllers have Echoflex's Smart Click technology which
allows installers and facility operators to manage configuration settings without
any tools reducing call-backs and installation expense. Using just a wireless wall
switch, the facility maintenance engineer can adjust setting on the installed
controllers eliminating a service call to an electrician.
This guide covers model number ERDRC-ECC which is equipped with an EnOcean
315 MHz radio and the ERDRC-ECY equipped with a 868 MHz radio.
The package includes the ERDRC controller and installation guide.
ERDRC Operation
The ERDRC is a controller that can activate lighting loads when a received input
from a linked sensor or switch is changed.
As a lighting controller, the ERDRC operates lights based on:
• ambient light levels monitored by an Echoflex light sensor
• occupancy state monitored by Echoflex motion sensors
• switch action from an Echoflex wall switch

Summary of Contents for echoflex ERDRC-EC

  • Page 1 ERDRC-EC Installation Guide Product Overview Echoflex’s lighting controllers use wireless technology to monitor the room’s environment eliminating much of the wiring normally required for distributed control. This translates into quick installations with less disruption to occupants allowing facilities to accelerate retrofit schedules and start saving money sooner.
  • Page 2 The ERDRC controller will turn the lights on or off and will modulate the light intensity from a dimming ballast fixture based on the ambient light level in the room. An Echoflex light sensor monitors light levels and must be linked to the ERDRC controller to provide the light level in the room.
  • Page 3 The ERDRC will turn the lights OFF when there is no motion detected in the room indicated by an Echoflex motion sensor. The ERDRC can be configured to turn the lights ON immediately (Auto-ON) if the motion sensor detects motion, see the section titled “Configuing the ERDRC“.
  • Page 4 Radio Range Planning The ERDRC controller is intended to be used with switches, sensors and actuators enabled with EnOcean PTM or STM transmitters. Locating the wireless transmitters to work with the installed ERDRC controller requires planning. Careful consideration should be made for locating the controllers based on the construction materials in the space and possibility of tenant’s furniture disrupting the transmissions.
  • Page 5 • Avoid large obstructions. Place receivers in alternate locations to avoid the radio shadow or use repeaters to go around the obstacle. • Do not locate receivers close to other high frequency transmitters. Leave at least 2’ between the receiver and any other source of interference including lighting ballasts, computers, video equipment, Wi-Fi/LAN routers, GSM modems and monitors.

  • Page 14 Timeouts - the ERDRC can be configured to wait a period of time after an ON event from a PTM switch or occupancy sensor before turning the load OFF (auto-off). • Enter Smart Click configuration mode and click the switch ON or OFF until the light is blinking five times.
  • Page 15 When the dimming output is enabled, the value selected becomes the maximum dimming set point. With the dimming output disabled, the value becomes the Light-ON-Set point. Control Response with Dimming Output Enabled In the diagram, the red (thick) line indicates the dimming output. The output will begin lowering as the light level increases.
