4. Press Next to advance to the Ctrl Type screen.
The control type assigns what the sensor is going to do to the specific loads it is assigned
to. There are three options: On/Off, Hi/Lo/Off, and Hi/Med/Lo/Off.
l
On/Off determines when the photo sensor turns lights on after ambient light levels
drop below the assigned threshold and when the photo sensors turn lights off after
ambient light levels rise above the assigned threshold.
l
Hi/Lo/Off allows the user to assign specific loads to the Lo and Hi settings. If
ambient light levels exceed the upper threshold, all loads are turned off. When
ambient light levels drop below the upper threshold, Lo loads are turned on. When
the ambient light levels drop below the lower threshold, Hi loads are turned on.
l
Hi/Med/Lo/Off allows the user to assign specific loads to the Hi, Med, and Lo
settings. If ambient light levels rise above the upper threshold, all loads are turned
off. If ambient light levels drop below the upper threshold, Lo loads are turned on. If
ambient light levels drop below the second threshold, Med loads are turned on and
Lo loads are turned off. If ambient light levels drop below the last threshold, Hi, Med,
and Lo loads are turned on to their high setting.
5. Highlight the desired option and press Next to adjust the threshold associated with the
setting.
Ctrl Type Screen
Lighting Threshold Settings
The Photocell Setup screen allows adjustment of the lighting threshold settings. The displayed
bar graph represents the settings.
l
The dotted section in the bar graph represents the hysteresis buffer that prevents the
lights from cycling when ambient light levels near the threshold.
l
A tick mark on the top of the bar graph shows the current ambient light level.
Photocell Setup Screen (on/off)
The settings determine the functionality of the loads as described below. Refer to the Light
Levels illustration that follows below for details.
