Standard label makers can be used to make
the 9mm directory labels. (Shown above
and in the labeling examples on this page
are the Brother Electronic Labeling System
model PT-200 and black-on-clear label tape
TZ-121.)
Dataline switch units may be ordered in a keyed version (catalog numbers with -k suffix). Each keyed switch comes with a vertical
opening in the lower left lightpipe where the key may be inserted, as shown to the left.
Keyed switches are used to limit manual control of lighting to authorized personnel, such as the facility manager or cleaning crew.
Inserting the key and momentarily pressing the inner contact activates the switch unit, allowing authorized users to operate the switch
buttons for a period of one minute. The switch unit buttons will only respond when activated by the key in this manner. At all other times,
the switch will be inactive.
The following sections offer detailed instructions on assigning special functions to the dataline switch buttons for increased
flexibility and alternate lighting scenarios.
The Lighting Integrator system is designed to provide flexibility without compromising simplicity in installation and operation. These
special functions may be used to enhance the operation of your system, but they are not required in most installations.
Patterns
A Pattern is a combination of ON and OFF states for a group of relays which creates a "scene." Any button on a dataline switch may be
smartwired to create such a scene. The following example is an office with four 3-lamp fluorescent fixtures and six wall wash units (see
Figure 7).
The local dataline switch will provide 1/3, 2/3, and Full On for the fluorescents, and separate control of the wall-wash units. The Switch
Documentation form in Figure 8 shows how the four buttons on a quad switch would be smartwired to create this switching function.
Relays that are in an OFF state are circled.

The screwless cover plate is
easily removed by pressing
the black tab on the bottom of
the switch and lifting off the
plate. Replace it by placing
the hang bar at the top of the
plate onto the hang hook at
the top of the switch base and
snapping the bottom in place
until it clicks.

Inserting the key into the key
slot and pressing the inner
contact activates a keyed
switch unit, allowing an
authorized user to operate the
switch buttons for a period of
one minute. Once the key is
removed, the switch cannot be
activated.
Figure 8 – Patterns Switch Documentation
The individual switch buttons
on the dataline switch unit
provide space for 3/8" wide x 1
1/16" long (9mm x 30mm) label
directories. Standard label
makers, such as the Brother
PT-200, shown above, can
be used to print the labels in
various colors and styles.
