Using surrounding ambient (often natural) light to supplement artificial light in order to keep a constant lighting level while saving electricity. Within the Centura System, daylight harvesting requires connecting the CN100 Power Pack directly to an ODC0P photocell, light fixtures, and a dimming controller and/or software and SmartJack combination. -
Page 8: How Different Sensor Combinations Operate
SYSTEM OVERVIEW • SENSOR COMBINATIONS HOW DIFFERENT SENSOR COMBINATIONS OPERATE Because the Centura System is a combination of components that may vary from installation to installation, as well as from room to room, how it works is dependent on which components are selected. - Page 9 SYSTEM OVERVIEW • SENSOR COMBINATIONS Photocell PLUS Occupancy Sensor The combination of both types of sensors automates on/off switching and dim/bright fluorescent lighting adjustments. What to Expect as You Enter the Room When you enter an empty room, the lights will turn on to the Light Maintain Level or the level the lighting was manually set to at the time the lights were turned off if that level was lower than the Light Maintain Level.

Page 16: Chapter 3: Administrating Centura
In general, the Power Pack will adjust a load’s output level to the lowest light level called for by an active input: Leviton refers to this as the Least Light Law. For example, if the Power Pack is turned on (either manually or by occupancy) and the Light Maintain Level calls for a lower output level than the last preset manual level, the lights will adjust to the lower Light Maintain Level. -
Page 17: Cn100 Dimming Power Pack Input Prioritization
CN100 Dimming Power Pack Input Prioritization The CN100 Dimming Power Pack may receive several inputs at any one time and it prioritizes these inputs in the following order. Being aware of this order provides additional insight into how the system will operate. -
Page 18: Definitions & Advanced Settings
ADMINISTRATING CENTURA • DEFINITIONS & ADVANCED SETTINGS Definitions & Advanced Settings Familiarizing yourself with following terms, in addition to those listed in the previous chapter (Light Maintain Level, Maximum Light Level, Minimum Light Level, Preset Light Levels, Unoccupied State) will help you to understand the Centura System so you can properly administrate it. -
