DLM Dimming System Addendum
This addendum shows you how to install,
confi gure and use dimming features in a
WattStopper Digital Lighting Management
(DLM) system. Carefully read all
instructions provided with products. This
addendum assumes you are familiar with
the features, products and installation
practices used in a DLM system based
on LMRC-1xx series room controllers.
If you have not had training on the basic
system, you should read the DLM System
Installation Guide before installing
a dimming system. To download the
complete guide go to: www.wattstopper.com -> Resources->
Downloads-> Installation Instructions-> Digital Lighting Management.
All wiring must comply with applicable electrical and safety codes. All electrical installation
work should be carried out by an experienced electrician.

Summary of Contents for wattstopper DLM

  • Page 1: Table Of Contents

    This addendum assumes you are familiar with the features, products and installation practices used in a DLM system based on LMRC-1xx series room controllers. If you have not had training on the basic system, you should read the DLM System Installation Guide before installing a dimming system.

    WattStopper patented Plug n’ Go™ confi guration to allow basic operation of all Device Wiring (Low Voltage Class 2) DLM devices in an energy effi cient confi guration All DLM devices connect to room controllers as described in the examples below: using WattStopper LMRJx cables in a free- •...

  • Page 4: Room Controllers

    Dimming-capable room controllers have built-in current monitoring capability. There must be a network bridge (LMBC-300 or LMRC-3xx) on the room controller’s DLM local network to expose current data readings to a WattStopper DLM Segment Manager or compatible BAS. See the DLM Networking Addendum for more information.

  • Page 5: Mounting And Placement

    On power up, the DLM system automatically starts the “load control arbitration” process and uses the PnG confi guration appropriate to the number of loads and types of devices on the DLM Local Network (see next page). In common applications, the relationship between quantity of loads, switches and occupancy sensors won’t require any adjustments.

  • Page 8: Switches

    (see Advanced Confi guration Options). The switches and dimming switch (dimmer) operate on 24VDC supplied by WattStopper room controllers. Their current consumption is 5mA each. They communicate with other DLM devices over the DLM Local Network. Each switch has two RJ-45 ports for DLM Local Network connections.

  • Page 9: Power Up Functionality

    Touching the bottom of a rocker paddle turns OFF bound loads. With the default PnG confi guration, if an occupancy sensor is connected to the DLM Local Network containing DLM switches or dimmers, Load 1 operates in Auto-ON mode and all other loads operate in Manual-ON mode.

  • Page 10: Advanced Confi Guration Options

    » Switches LMSW & LMDM continued Advanced Confi guration Options You can change the function and operating mode of any LMSW button using advanced confi guration tools [LMCT-100(v21) or LMCS-100]. The options for button type are load button or scene button. A load button is intended to turn one or more loads ON or OFF.

  • Page 11: Lmsw-105 Operation

    LMSW & LMDM continued LMSW-105 Operation The scene switch operates on a DLM local network, typically within a single room. When initially installed, PnG binds all lighting loads in the local network to all the scene buttons and the rocker on the scene switch.

  • Page 12: Active Dim

    All PnG functionality will be restored. To reset the system: 1. Press and hold the confi guration button until the red LED starts blinking to put the DLM local network into PnL, about 3 seconds.

  • Page 13: Occupancy Sensors

    Upon initial power up, the system Load 1 Loads 2-8 Plug Load automatically takes inventory of the devices or more*** on the DLM Local Network. It sets up a MANUAL-ON if switch is Plug n’ Go™ (PnG) confi guration allowing connected. ON Mode...

    If still not successful, turn OFF bright lights, close blinds and try again. • If still not successful, the IR lenses on the DLM devices may be dirty. Clean the lenses with a soft material such as an eyeglass lens cleaning cloth.

  • Page 15: Configuration Tool

    You can use it to change any of the DLM occupancy sensor parameters such as sensitivity, time delay and more. With the LMCT-100 you can also change load confi gurations, without any new wiring. For systems including daylighting sensors the LMCT-100 can set or change the daylight level parameters.

    2. Press and hold the confi guration button in the battery compartment for 20 seconds. System Reset - This reset returns ALL DLM devices to their factory default PnG settings. All system and device settings will be reset to factory defaults; all customized binding relationships will be lost.

  • Page 18: Lmrh-105 Handheld Scene Control

    The transmitting range is the same as the LMRH-105: up to 32 feet at a maximum angle of 40°. Default Functionality: Plug n’ Go™ (PnG) As shipped, the rocker paddle and scene buttons control all loads on the DLM local network. To change the loads controlled by the LMRH-105 and to record scenes see UNIT ADJUSTMENT.

  • Page 19: Unit Adjustment

    The LMRH-105 is pre-set for operation as described in the Default Functionality section. Adjustment is optional. A “confi guration” button in the battery compartment allows access to the WattStopper Push n’ Learn™ technology to change the operation of the LMRH-105.

  • Page 20: Recording Scenes

    1. Point the LMRH-105 at an IR enabled DLM local network device. 2. Put the DLM local network into PnL: Press and hold the confi guration button in the battery compartment for approximately 3 seconds until the red LED starts blinking (see Step 1 in UNIT ADJUSTMENT for details).

  • Page 21: Troubleshooting

    1. Make sure the DLM local network is not in PnL. turn ON and 2. Be sure you’re pointing the remote at a DLM IR enabled device that is OFF but light within range. To test, see if you can put the network into PnL using the levels don’t...

  • Page 23: Push N' Learn (Pnl) Procedure

    » Push n’ Learn (PnL) Procedure Push n’ Learn (PnL) A confi guration button (Confi g) on all communicating DLM devices allows access to the WattStopper patented Push n’ Learn™ technology to change binding relationships between sensors, switches/ dimmers, and loads. This process also allows you to include/exclude loads from scenes.

    WARNING: Do not use the DLM system to control loads other than lighting if the load is not in view of a person at all control locations. Do not use DLM to control any load that might be dangerous or cause a hazardous situation if accidentally activated.
