UNIT DESCRIPTION

The LMLS-500 is an open loop photosensor that measures 

daylight in order to automatically switch or dim up to three zones 

of lighting. It is part of a Digital Lighting Management (DLM) 

system and sends light level signals to control loads connected 

to DLM switching or dimming room controllers. The LMLS-500  

has a photodiode with an extended range of 1-6,553 footcandles 

(fc) and photopic correction to mimic the human eye for precise 

measurement of visible light.
The LMLS-500 operates on Class 2 power supplied to a DLM 

local network by one or more DLM room controllers. Once set 

up, the LMLS-500 uses switching or dimming setpoints and other 

control parameters to manage the light levels throughout the day 

regardless of changing daylight contribution.

Sensor Installation and Configuration Overview

1.  Mount the photosensor so that the Daylight Viewing Port 

directly views the daylight entering the space through 

a window or a skylight. See Placement Guidelines and 

Mounting the Photosensor.

2.  Complete all wiring and turn ON power to the room 

controller.

3.  Use the LMCS-100 or LMCT-100 configuration tool to 

complete the configuration process. The LMLS-500 will not 

operate properly until the configuration and calibration is 

successful.
a. Select the LMLS-500 to configure and select  Zone 

Setup.

b. Choose the desired number of zones (1-3), then select 

the operating mode for each zone (Switched, Bi-Level, 

Tri-Level, Dimmed).

c. Assign individual loads to each of the configured zones.
d. Calibrate the LMLS-500. Use a light meter to measure 

the light level at each zone with the lights ON and OFF to 

determine the relationship between the light level at the 

task and light level at the LMLS-500.

e. Adjust Zone Settings and Advanced Settings to meet 

specific sequence of operation requirements.

f.  Use Test Mode to verify the LMLS-500 operation.
