  • Page 16 Cresnet Occupancy Sensor and Photocell Wired Using Cresnet The following illustration indicates how to wire an occupancy sensor and photocell using Cresnet. NOTE: A maximum of 10 Cresnet occupancy senors may be connected. Occupancy Sensor Wired to Cresnet Port Using a GLS-SIM Use the dials to set the ID of the GLS-SIM to C0 - C9 to match the ID defined in the program.
  • Page 17 Photocell Wired to SENSORS 5-8 Port Photocells can only be wired to the right SENSORS 5-8 port. Photocell Wired Using Cresnet to GLS-SIM Use the dials to set the ID of the GLS-SIM to C0 - C9 to match the ID defined in the program. NOTE: A maximum of 10 GLS-SIMs may be connected.
  • Page 18 Using GLS-PLS-120/277 to Provide Override Control A GLS-PLS-120/277 connects to 3-phase inputs and neutral power connections. The OUTPUT 1 or OUTPUT 2 port connects to the OVERRIDE OR G port on the GL-IPAC-SW8. Adding an Additional Lighting Panel Adding an additional lighting panel to the GL-IPAC-SW8 is accomplished by connecting the two panels together via the CRESNET 24 Y Z G port.
  • Page 19: Wiring Guidelines

    Use Crestron Certified Wire only. If Cresnet units are to be daisy chained on the run, the Cresnet power usage of each network unit to be daisy chained must be added together to determine the Cresnet power usage of the entire chain.
  • Page 20: Strip And Tin Wire

    Make sure the cable length value is less than the value calculated on the right side of the equation. For example, a Cresnet run using 18 AWG Crestron Certified Wire and drawing 20 watts should not have a length of run more than 333 feet (101 meters). If Cresnet HP is used for the same run, its length could extend to 1250 feet (381 meters).
  • Page 21: Configuration

    Configuration Use the front panel controls and display to configure the GL-IPAC-SW8.
