OPERATING MODES

Plug n’ Go

The LMLS-500, unlike most  other DLM Components, will not auto-configure. The LMLS-500 must be manually configured using the 

LMCT-100 or LMCS-100.

Push n’ Learn

Push and Learn™ (PnL) provides for remote load binding and configuration within the room, without requiring direct access to the Room 

Controller(s). While the  

LMLS-500 must be configured through the use of a configuration tool (e.g., LMCT-100), the CONFIG button at the back of the product 

can be used to force the system into or out of PnL, and/or to step to the next load in sequence.

Confirmation of Load Binding

To provide a confirmation of load bindings after installation, a quick press using a paper clip on the USER button sequences through 

three states: 

1st press

 - all controlled loads forced ON at 100%

2nd press

 - all controlled loads forced OFF at 0%

3rd press

 - exit load binding confirmation mode and resume normal control. (Confirmation mode cancels automatically after 5 minutes if 

no further action is taken after the 1st or 2nd press.)

Test Mode 

In Test Mode, time delays are reduced to 5 seconds (to create near-immediate reactions to changes in measured light levels), and the 

ramp rate increases to 20%/second (to cause the changes to be immediately visible).
To activate Test Mode, press and hold the USER button for 2 seconds or use a configuration tool. If not cancelled by the user, the 

controller automatically exits Test Mode after 5 minutes.

User Override of Levels Set by Daylighting Control

The electric light levels of loads configured for daylighting control can be adjusted from DLM wall switches, within limitations established 

by LMLS parameters that are set using the Advanced Settings screen of the LMCT-100.
The light level can always be reduced (by turning off loads in a switched zone, or by lowering the level of loads in a dimmed zone) 

without restriction. When a load is dimmed down from its daylighting-permitted level, the new level set becomes the maximum electric 

light level for that load (a “cap” level), regardless of daylight contribution, until the load is turned off and back on again, or until the 

level is adjusted upwards. If a load has been dimmed, a single tap on the top of a controlling switch’s rocker will return the level to the 

maximum allowed by daylighting at that time, and cancel the level restriction (“cap”) set by the earlier user adjustment.
Increasing the light level above that set by daylighting is possible only if 

Allow Override

 is set to 

Yes

 (the default is 

No

). For switched 

modes, this means that the loads can be turned on even when the present ambient light level is above the On Setpoint. In the case of 

dimmed mode, a load will turn on and adjust to its daylighting-permitted level, but a subsequent tap on the top of a controlling switch will 

increase the level to maximum. In either mode, the affected loads will be temporarily removed from daylighting control, and be placed in 

an “override” state. The levels of the overridden loads can be changed or adjusted, and they will not return to daylighting control unless 

they are turned off and back on again (for example, by a cycle of occupancy).
If the 

Override Time

 parameter is changed from its default (

Infinity

) to a fixed time (e.g., 1 hour), all loads presently overridden will 

return to automatic daylighting control after the selected time period lapses.
Any loads not affected by the switch actions causing the override will continue to be controlled by daylighting; overrides occur on a load-

by-load basis.
If any daylighting loads are presently overridden, the blue LED in the sensor head will flash once every four seconds.
To provide the ability to set arbitrary light levels in Dimmed applications, a switch with a dimming control rocker (e.g., LMDM-101 or 

LMSW-105) should be used.

Scene Control and Daylighting

Setting a new light level using a scene switch is possible, provided 

Hold Off

 is set to 

No

 (default). Such a light level change is not 

considered an override. If daylighting control is active when the new scene is selected, daylighting control suspends until the new scene 

is displayed, and then resumes, with the new light level established by the scene as the maximum electric light level (“cap” level), on 

a load-by-load basis, until a subsequent user action changes the level. Any daylighting loads not included in the scene will continue to 

operate as before the recall.
Optionally, daylighting control can be temporarily disabled for any loads on which a scene has been recalled. If 

Scenes Stop DL

 is set 

to 

Yes

, daylighting control for a load affected by a scene will not resume until the level of the load is changed by another user action, or 

the load is turned off and on again.
