UNIT DESCRIPTION
The LMLS-400 is a closed loop photosensor that measures the
ambient light level in order to automatically switch or dim one
zone of lighting. It is part of the Digital Lighting Management
(DLM) system and sends light level signals to control loads
connected to DLM switching or dimming room controllers. The
LMLS-400 has photodiodes with an extended range of 1-1,553
footcandles (fc), and photopic correction to mimic the human
eye, for precise measurement of visible light.
The LMLS-400 operates on Class 2 power supplied to a DLM
local network by one or more DLM room controllers. Plug n' Go
automatic configuration assigns the photosensor to control load 1.
Loads may be reassigned using an LMCT-100. Following a manual
or automatic setup process, the LMLS-400 monitors the ambient
light in the controlled space and works with the room controller(s)
to maintain the design light level. The LMLS-400 uses switching
or dimming setpoints and other control parameters to manage
the light levels throughout the day regardless of changing daylight
contribution.
Sensor Installation and Configuration Overview
1. Mount the photosensor so that the Photosensor Viewing
Port views the daylight and electric light combined.
2. Complete all wiring and turn ON power to the room
controller.
3. Use the LMCS-100 or LMCT-100 configuration tool to
complete the configuration process. The LMLS-400 will not
operate properly until the configuration and calibration is
successful.
a. Select the LMLS-400 to be configured, from the
Daylighting menu.
b. Use Zone Setup to select the operating mode for
the controlled zone (Switched, Bi-Level, Tri-Level, or
Dimmed).
c. Assign individual loads to the LMLS-400 controlled zone.
d. Calibrate the LMLS-400 either automatically or manually.
If manual calibration is chosen a light meter will be
required.
e. Adjust Zone Settings and Advanced Settings to meet
specific sequence of operation requirements.
f. Use Test Mode to verify the LMLS-400 operation.

  • Page 2: Placement Guidelines

    PLACEMENT GUIDELINES WARNING: DO NOT USE THE DLM LOCAL NETWORK TO CONTROL LOADS OTHER THAN LIGHTING IF THE LOAD IS NOT IN VIEW OF A PERSON AT ALL CONTROL LOCATIONS. DO NOT USE DLM TO CONTROL ANY LOAD THAT MIGHT BE DANGEROUS OR CAUSE A HAZARDOUS SITUATION IF ACCIDENTALLY ACTIVATED. The LMLS-400 switches or dims electric light in response to daylight.
  • Page 3: Mounting The Photosensor

    MOUNTING THE PHOTOSENSOR In most applications, the unit will be mounted through a ceiling tile, with only the lens being visible from inside the room; the remainder of the unit will rest on top of the tile. The alternate mounting approach permits the unit to be affixed to hard surface. In these surface- mount applications, an accessory plastic mounting bracket is required.

    WIRING DIRECTIONS OPERATION Installation shall be in accordance with all applicable regulations, The LMLS-400 communicates with all other Lighting Management wiring practices, and codes. devices connected to the DLM Local Network. It is dependent on a DLM Room Controller (LMRC-100 series for On/Off switched The DLM Local Network is free topology low voltage wiring.
  • Page 5: Operating Modes

    OPERATING MODES Plug n’ Go The default operating mode for the LMLS-400 is Plug n’ Go™ (PnG). Upon initial power up, the system automatically takes inventory of the devices on the DLM Local Network and allows immediate operation of devices in the most energy efficient manner. When only one LMLS-400 is found, it is automatically assigned to Load 1.
  • Page 6 CONFIGURATION The configuration process establishes the appropriate parameters for operation. This is done through the use of an LMCT-100 configuration tool. If no configuration steps are taken, the sensor will use its default values for setpoints. The LMCT-100 Wireless IR Configuration Tool is a handheld tool for setup and testing of WattStopper Digital Lighting Management (DLM) devices.

    TROUBLESHOOTING Lights do not switch or dim when desired, under daylight control • Use the pushbutton on the photosensor face to manually test load control (see SENSOR PUSHBUTTONS on page 3). If the lights do not switch on and off, check Zone Setup to rebind the loads. If the lights do switch on and off, use the Zone Settings screen to verify that the On and Off setpoints are correct (if Switched / Bi-Level / Tri-Level) or Day and Night setpoints are correct (if Dimmed).
