Page 5: Introduction
Introduction The Tri-Zone Dimming Controller is a fully configurable and complete stand-alone dimming and lighting controller designed to perform common lighting control applications based on input from wireless linked sensors and switches. It includes 0–10 V dimming channels for three individual dimming zones and a robust 20 A relay (16 A relay in High voltage ELED3H model) for ON/OFF control of large controlled... -
Page 6: Document Conventions
Document Conventions Echoflex's user documentation is designed for print or electronic use. Cross-references highlighted in this document are links to the referenced section of the guide. This document uses the following conventions to draw your attention to important information. Configuration parameters are emphasized in italics . Switch actions (ON/OFF) and dimmer events (lights ON/OFF) are emphasized in ALL CAPS. -
Page 7: Configuration Options
Configuration Options The controller provides dimming and switching control using input received from compatible Echoflex devices. It operates based on: • Ambient light levels monitored by a wireless photo sensor • Occupancy state monitored by a wireless occupancy sensor • Switch action from a wireless wall or keycard switch •... -
Page 8: Status Message
Status Message The controller can broadcast a message per EEP: A5-11-01 Status Feedback Message. A message broadcasts every 100 seconds. The status message can be enabled/disabled using Simple Tap instructions. 1. Press and hold the [Learn] button on the controller. 2. -
Page 9: Switch Operation
Switch Operation The controller operates with single, dual-paddle wall, wave, and hand-held Echoflex switches as well as button station transmitters including the Multi-Button Interface Switch Station (MBI). A switch can be linked to a single channel or all the channels. Garibaldi Pro software is required to configure all fade control settings. -
Page 10: Occupancy-Based Lighting Applications
Occupancy-Based Lighting Applications When occupancy sensors that are linked to the controller do not detect motion, they send a vacancy message to the controller. After the occupancy Auto-OFF timer expires, the controller turns the lights OFF or fades to a preset level. For information about coordinated control of a Open-Plan Shared Occupancy on page 7 space, see Occupancy Sensor Auto-OFF Timer... -
Page 11: Grace Timer
Grace Timer The occupancy sensor grace timer is a short period of time during which the controller returns the lights to the previous occupied state if triggered by motion, or audio in the case of Dual Tech sensors. The grace timer starts counting down after the occupancy Auto-OFF timer has expired, providing a time period for an undetected occupant to signal that the space is occupied. -
Page 12: Create A Shared Occupancy Space
All Echoflex controllers support open-plan shared occupancy functionality to comply with current energy savings codes. There is no limit to the number of controllers that are connected to a shared occupancy, but each controller must be within radio range of at least one other controller to be able to send and respond to occupancy state messages. -
Page 13: Night Light Level
Night Light Level Night light level is a control feature that maintains a minimum dimming level to conform to city ordinances, if required. When enabled, the ELED3(H) can provide the normal range of lighting control and also maintain a minimum night lighting level that does not turn off. The feature ensures that the selected minimum dimming level cannot be turned off by any linked device, gateway, or structured command (MSC). -
Page 14: Hospitality Applications
Hospitality Applications Hospitality is a specific kind of occupancy-based control. When the controller is used in a hotel or dormitory setting, it is typically linked to a keycard switch station or to both an entry door sensor and an occupancy sensor. Example: When an occupant enters a room and inserts a keycard into the keycard switch station an occupancy message is sent to its linked controllers to power the... -
Page 15: Daylight Harvesting Applications
Daylight Harvesting Applications Based on the ambient light level in the space, the controller modulates light intensity from lighting fixtures on the primary and secondary daylighting channels, Channel 1 and 2 respectively. The daylight harvesting application does not affect the relay operation. When daylighting is active and is driving the two outputs, a switch, gateway command or occupancy sensor cannot force the light level higher. - Page 16 To set the closed loop set point: 1. Turn the light ON. 2. Use a handheld photometer to measure the light on the task plane. 3. Use a linked switch to adjust the fixture's light level until it matches the target light level and give the sensor a moment to register the level.
-
Page 17: Open Loop Control
Open Loop Control A sensor's default setting (open loop or closed loop) depends on what it is linked to and the controller's daylighting operating mode setting: Automatic, Open Loop, or Closed Loop. In open loop daylighting, the sensor monitors the natural light contribution. The sensor must be mounted so it is not affected by the controlled fixture's light output. - Page 18 High Range: generally greenhouse and industrial sensors • D2-14-56 (Light Intensity, CCT and PPFD Sensor) • D2-14-5E (Greenhouse Sensor) Note: Low Range is the default for the Photo Sensor (TAP-31). Mid Range is the default for both the Open Loop CCT Sensor (FLS-41) and the CCT Photo Sensor (TAP- 41).

Page 19: Controller Presets
Controller Presets Preset values are used to determine the dimming intensity and color temperature of different lighting scenes that are part of a designed solution made up of connected devices. A scene is a coordinated combination of controllers configured and grouped to light a space according to specific requirements. -
Page 20: User Interface
User Interface Note: Echoflex recommends using Garibaldi Pro software to manage wireless projects and configurable settings. Garibaldi Pro is available for download at echoflexsolutions.com. Two buttons on the controller activate features and set specific configurations directly on the device. Two related status LEDs provide feedback about stored information and activities. Power LED and Learn LED The Power and Learn LEDs provide visual feedback as red, green, or blue. -
Page 21: Remote Linking Solution
Remote Linking Solution Use the following method to link the first switch if you cannot access the [Learn] button on a controller that has not been pre-commissioned and you do not have Garibaldi Pro software. This method only works if there are no switches linked to the controller. You cannot link a scene station using this method. -
Page 22: Blink Indications
Blink Indications The following tables describe the LED codes that identify linked devices and the LED indications that describe linking activities. A different color LED identifies each channel. Red is for Channel 1, Green is for Channel 2, and blue is for Channel 3. Device Count Codes The following codes provide a visible report of the supported devices that are linked to the controller. -
