Table 2: Indicating LEDs and contactor outputs
Four green LEDs indicate light-level switch combination (no averaging applied) regarding to
current light condition. For example : When light conditions are below the level set for L1,
first LED 1 is lit , when between L1 and L2 second LED 2 is lit, then LED 2 and LED 3 is lit,
etc. Red LEDs indicate the same light conditions and current status of 230 VAC outputs with
averaging applied.
Light levels, output combinations and moving-average interval are software adjustable (refer
to PC software).
2. 4. 2. Use of U/I Analog Outputs
Analogue outputs directly follow current light conditions (no averaging is applied). There are
two outputs for this purpose: voltage (0-10 V) and current (4-20 mA). Simultaneous use of
both is not recommended and can affect accuracy. 230 V AC contactor outputs can be used
at the same time with no affect to accuracy. (For example: tunnel lighting can be switched
on/off by using contactor outputs while light conditions are monitored via analog outputs
connected to SCADA). For distance over 100 metres use of I-current output is preferred. For
brightness calculation use following equations:
