Site Survey for Wireless Installations
ArcSystem transmitters and luminaires operate in the unlicensed 2.4 GHz band using the IEEE
802.15.4 standard. This band is shared with other technologies such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, low power
sensor networks, wireless AV transmitters and some radio microphones.
Before commissioning a system, a wireless site survey is essential.
Gathering information on how your wireless lighting system will overlap with all other Wi-Fi traffic in
the area will help determine setup of transmitters and which luminaires should be re-broadcasting,
not just receiving wireless data.
Installation Requirements
•
Indoor installation only: 0–40°C (32–104°F), 5–95% non-condensing humidity.
•
Dry locations only.
•
Installation location must support the weight of the luminaire, driver, and applicable mounting
hardware.
CAUTION:
ArcSystem luminaires and drivers are not suitable for use in spaces
with restricted air flow. Enclosing the luminaires or drivers temporarily or
permanently may cause damage to the luminaires or drivers.
Preparing the Ceiling for Recessed Luminaires
This section is specific to the recessed/flush mounted variant of luminaires. For Pro One-Cell yoke-
mounted luminaires, proceed to
Installing One-Cell Yoke-Mounted Luminaires on page 11
The luminaire retaining clips accommodate 3–24 mm (1/8–15/16 in) ceiling thickness. Cut a hole in
the ceiling or ceiling tile to accommodate the luminaire’s retaining clip anchors. Cut the hole larger
than the minimum hole diameter listed below and smaller than the luminaire’s outer bezel. The
images below provide an example of the bezels on the Pro One-Cell luminaires.
Luminaire
Minimum Hole Diameter
Pro One-Cell
16.5 cm (6-1/2 in)
Pro One-Cell High Output
17.0 cm (6-11/16 in)
Pro One-Cell Small
9.5 cm (3-3/4 in)
Pro One-Cell Micro
7.6 cm (3 in)
Note:
If you are installing the luminaire into an ArcSystem Recessed Ceiling Adapter,
refer to the
ArcSystem Recessed Ceiling Adapter Installation Guide
for the minimum
diameter hole to cut in the ceiling to clear the flange on the bottom of the bracket.
Note:
Maximum ceiling thickness for safe use of the luminaire retaining clips is 24 mm
(15/16 in).
