Introduction - ETC echoflex ELED2-BCL Configuration Manual

Introduction

The Bicolor Luminaire Controller, model ELED2-BCL, is a wireless lighting controller designed
for horticultural spaces/areas where intensity and blended correlated color temperature (CCT)
control are required.
The ELED2-BCL creates a range of desired lighting effects based on manual switch action,
ambient light levels, and timeclock or gateway commands for a single LED fixture or an entire
zone. It modulates light intensity and blends cool and warm LEDs to provide the desired CCT
output. The controller is suitable for any scale of horticultural application, from a living plant
wall to a commercial-size growing operation; one controller supports up to three Fotono
luminaires, by RAYN Growing Systems (see rayngrowingsystems.com).
The ELED2-BCL has an integral relay and two robust 0–10 V
outputs that allow it to control dimmable light and LED
color temperature levels. Outputs are for connecting zones
or fixtures to provide the intensity and CCT control. Output
1 is identified by the violet/red striped wire, and output 2 is
identified by the violet/green striped wire.
Three linking channels are for assigning remote devices to
affect the controller's operation. The first linking channel is
for devices affecting intensity, the second channel is for
devices affecting the CCT. The third channel is for assigning
Open Loop CCT set points. The channels are identified by
different LED colors that display when the controller is in
link mode, see Blink Indications on page 14.
Daylighting control of fixture intensity can be quickly setup in either an open or closed loop
scenario. The factory defaults defined for the ELED2-BCL are energy code compliant.
Echoflex ELED products include preset functionality that allows spaces to be lit with lighting
scenes. Presets can be activated from scene stations, wireless timeclocks, or gateways and
include values for intensity and color temperature. The lockout feature allows timeclocks to
schedule a controller's response to specific sensors or stations.
