Introduction
The CDH8U5 is an intelligent LCM providing connections for multiple
luminaires*, up to 5 presence detectors and up to 10 SELV inputs. Provision
is made for 7 switched live outputs plus one volt-free power output. The unit
features
a switched output for Maintained Live to allow initiation of
Emergency Lighting Test. In addition, the unit is provided with a volt-free
signalling output to provide control of / interface to other equipment. The
CDH8U5 is designed to simplify installation whilst providing an intelligent
managed lighting system.
Please note that during the installation after the unit is power up and no
detector has been connected (or commissioning has not been done), lights
will be on for 20min and will turn themselves off. Please also note that when
using a MLS2000SSPmk2 with the MLS Network and connecting the lights
directly to the plate instead of to the LCM the command from the RB2000 will
be ignored as it does not get through the CD box.
*Note: Refer to the Technical Data section for the maximum allowable number
of luminaires.
Fixing
The CDH8U5 should be mounted in an enclosure with a DIN-rail.
Consideration should be given to access for installation and maintenance
when selecting the enclosure and location. The external enclosure DIN-rail
should comply with EN 60715.
Electrical Connections
The connections to this equipment should be made only by a suitably
qualified person and in accordance with the current wiring regulations.
A means of disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed mains
wiring to this box in accordance with the current wiring regulations.
All the connections should be routed ensuring adequate strain relief on the
cable before termination to the unit's pluggable connectors.
CAUTION: DO NOT CONNECT MAINS TO THE MLS BUS OR DIMMING
OUTPUTS.
Connecting the Luminaires
Variants of the CDH8U5 are provided to control DSI
configuration only),
DALI and 1-10V ballasts. (See Part Numbers section for
more details.)
Note: Dimming Ballast types CANNOT BE MIXED on a single CDH8U5.
The CDH8U5 is equipped with 8 two-wire
dimming outputs and 4 two-wire
switched live outputs. Switched Live Outputs 1 through 6 are grouped in pairs
on a single plug to add mechanical strength for plugging/unplugging.
Switched Live Output 7 has two terminals for connecting the load.

Note: Earth and Neutral are connected directly to the luminaire and not
routed through the CDH8U5.

The CDH8U5 has 7 switched live outputs. As shown in the diagram, the
Neutral and Earth connections should be taken directly to the load.
Each Switched Live output is rated for a load of up to 6A, with a total maximum
switched live load not exceeding 16A for the unit.
Output 8 is provided as a volt-free style for extra flexibility.
