2. Function and performance The presence detector series PlanoCentro is intended for ceiling mounting. ● Installation in suspended ceilings (false ceilings) ● Installation in flush-mounted junction box (set into concrete ceiling) Devices are available in the delivery unit with matching assembly sets for ceiling installation and flush-mount ceiling installation.

Channels A, B light switch lighting on with presence and insufficient light, and off with absence or sufficient light. The light can also be switched on/off manually using push buttons or switches. Channel C light on the PlanoCentro 300 only controls lighting by presence, for example for switching on blackboard lighting in classrooms.
3. Installation 3.1 Presence detection The ideal installation height is between 2.0 - 3.5 m. The sensitivity of the detector reduces with higher installation heights. The presence detector requires a clear view of people in order to clearly detect people. Offices, mobile partition walls, plants, hanging lighting etc. can hinder (shadowing) the pres- ence detector.
3.2 Light measurement The detector measures artificial and natural light, which is reflected from surfaces below the detector (beam angle for each ± 30°). The presence detector has two targeted light measu- rements, which separately record the light from two lighting groups.
3.3 Ceiling installation Ceiling installation of the presence detector takes place via the PlanoFix E installation frame and straps in the cut out ceiling element. PlanoFix E installation frame 1. Draw ceiling cut out (A hinge is integrated into the top of the packaging) ...

3.4 Flush-mounted ceiling installation Flush-mounted ceiling installation of the presence detector takes place via PlanoFix U in a flush mounted socket. Details about the flush mounted socket can be found in the technical data page 131, section flush mount installation. The screws included are intended for installation in the flush- mounted socked.
4. Connection / Operation mode The PlanoCentro presence detector can be combined as master and slave. ● Master in single unit operation ● Master in parallel switching mode ● Master - slave parallel switching 4.1 Single unit operation With individual switching, a PlanoCentro 201 controls two lighting groups as a «Master» as well as e.g.
Page 13
4.2 General parallel connecting The parallel signal is sent via P-terminal and also received. Every detector, regardless of whether it is master or slave, sends the presence signal via P-terminal. This allows a Master and Slaves, as well as several Masters, to be switched together with a parallel signal. See following chapter on parallel switching options.

Lighting group C does not have a brightness measurement and only switches according to presence.
5. Start-up The detector is delivered ready for operation with basic settings. The specifications are guide values. The management remote control SendoPro is available as an option for start-up. It enables remote setting of all parameter values. See chapter 6 page 114. 5.1 Basic settings The PlanoCentro has 6 basic settings.

The basic settings have to be activated after the rotary switch position SW1 has changed. Adjusting the rotary switch during operation (live) does not have an effect. Activation Description Powerup The rotary switch position SW1 is monitored during the first 5 hours of operation.
Page 21
5.3 Behaviour on switching on Every time the voltage is switched on, the detector goes through the start-up phase, which is indicated by the LED. The presence detector runs through several tests during the start-up phase. If the tests run without any problems, then the presence detector switched to normal operation mode.
6. Parameters The basic settings are selected with a rotary switch on the back of the presence detector, see page 110. Parameters can be adjusted and optimised with the SendoPro Management remote control. The following parameters are available with the PlanoCentro 201 and PlanoCentro 300: Parameter Page Operation mode...
6.1 Adjustment with the remote control The parameters are sent to the presence detector via SendoPro management remote control. The parameters can be selected before making changes. Changed parameters are immediately accepted and applied by the detector.

Presence detector is used as staircase time switch. Manual switching off with push-buttons or theSenda S not pos- sible.. 6.5 Brightness set point value channels A, B light The brightness level defines the minimum required brightness. The current prevailing brightness is measured separately below the presence detector to the window (A) and to the room interior (B).
Page 25
The standard value is 0.3 and is suitable for most applications. Changes only make sense in extreme situations. Value range Adjustable values 0.05 - 10 Standard value, suitable for most applications. Adjustment of the detector brightness actual value Procedure: 1. Lux value below the presence detector to the window (A) or to the room interior (B) can be set separately via the lux meter 2.
Setting limits Set the room correction factor in such a way that room correction factor x brightness actual value is between 10 lx and 26000 lx. 6.7 Time delay channels A, B light or channel C light Value range Adjustable values 10 sec ..
The switch-off delay time is used according to set parameters. When entering an unoccupied room for a maximum of 30 seconds, the light switches off after two minutes. 6.9 Control inputs S1, S2, S3 (channels A, B, C light) Control inputs S1, S2, S3 for manually switching lights on/off (channels A, B, C light) automati- cally recognise push buttons or switches.

By selecting the operation mode test presence, the set sensitivity level is not changed. The parameter can be changed during test presence. 6.11 Function channel H presence (PlanoCentro 201 only) The potential-free relay contact may be used either for presence depending HVAC control or the control of lighting.
Page 29
6.13 Switch-off delay time channel H presence (PlanoCentro 201 only) The presence channel always switches, regardless of whether the function mode is set to full or semi- automatic. Set values remain unchanged (no self-learning effect). The relay contact only opens upon completion of the set switch-off delay time when presence is detected.
6.16 Group address channels A, B, C light This parameter is used when using the theSenda S. Channels A, B light can be allocated a group address (basic setting is I for channel A, I I for channel B and I I I for channel C). Group addresses can be programmed with the theSenda S in the PlanoCentro or adjusted with the SendoPro.
8. Test-Mode The PlanoCentro has two test modes. ● Test presence, page 123 ● Test lighting, page 125 The test mode can only be started with voltage. 8.1 Test presence The test presence serves to test presence detection and parallel switching. The test presence can activated directly on the presence detector (without power up) or with the SendoPro management remote control.

Test response - Brightness measurements deactivated, lighting outputs do not react to brightness - Detector does not respond as in fully-automatic function mode, also if semi-automatic is set. - Channels A, B, C lighting have a fixed switch-off delay time of 15 sec. - Channel H presence / room monitoring responds normally as in normal mode.

8.2 Test lighting The test light operating status is activated via the SendoPro management remote control. - Test lighting «On» with the SendoPro management remote control Activate The test lighting can always be activated. Terminate With subsequent restart: - Test lighting «Off» with the SendoPro management remote control - Power outage and thus power up - The presence detector automatically restarts after 10 minutes (see page 113) Without restart:...
Page 34
Test response The presence detector behaves 100% as in normal operation, only the reaction to light/dark is faster. Thus the brightness threshold and the adaptive response is tested. All selected functions and parameters remain unchanged. Commands and adjustable parameters During test mode the following commands are possible with the SendoPro management remote conrol: - Terminate test lighting - Activate basic settings (Reset) - Change detection sensitivity...
9. Control commands Control commands are available as follows: Teach-in channel A The actual measured brightness value is applied to the brightness level channel A. Teach-in channel B The current measured brightness value is accepted as brightness setpoint value. Teach-in channels A, B The current measured brightness value is accepted as brightness setpoint value.

Error display Solution Hardware malfunction Send in device for repairs with a short description of the problem to the responsible specialised dealer.
