Configuring Open Loop Daylighting Control - Eaton WaveLinx User And Programming Manual

WaveLinx User Manual
Step 6: Repeat these steps for other areas as needed for the application.
N ote: It is also possible to adjust the closed loop settings for an individual sensor. Please refer to the procedure as described in "Calibrating and Modifying
Light Levels for a Single Closed Loop Daylight Sensors" on page 79 for further details.

Configuring Open Loop Daylighting Control

This section focuses on the use of open loop daylighting control. In the WaveLinx system, open loop daylighting is not part of the automatic
code commissioning operation and must be specifically configured. This process is discussed in detail for both interior and exterior open loop
daylighting applications.
Configuring Interior Open Loop Daylight Sensors
Interior open loop daylighting requires the use of a battery operated ceiling sensor.
Open loop daylight sensors should be mounted so that the sensor lens views mainly daylight, not the electric light being controlled in the
•
area. Refer to the battery operated ceiling sensor's installation guide for further information on the recommended mounting locations for
this device in daylighting applications.
The battery operated ceiling sensor also has occupancy sensing capability. The optimal mounting location for occupancy sensing may not
•
be the optimal location for open loop daylighting. Separate sensors may be necessary to ensure adequate occupancy sensing coverage
and optimal daylight placement.
If fixtures in the zones that are assigned to open loop daylight sets contain integrated or tilemount sensors, closed loop daylighting will
•
automatically be disabled for these sensors.
Before proceeding:
Interior open loop sensor calibration should be performed during daylight hours when electric lighting should be reduced but not fully
•
dimmed.
The use of a light meter capable of reporting lux or foot-candles at the work surface is recommended.
