Programming the daylight linked function

The dimming curve for daylight management is set via the modular

DIM DM

 

module or via the light sensor itself. Two values are stored, appropriate to  
the external lighting conditions, Twilight and Daylight set points. 
Two switches on the modular

DIM DM

 module represent these positions.  

Light levels for the programming of the daylight set points are set via the 
modular

DIM BASIC

 module.

Programming of day time system set point

The settings should be programmed under sufficient daylight conditions,  
preferably, when the row of luminaires nearest the window, are dimmed 
to their lowest possible setting to achieve the designed light level.

1.  Set desired light level for each row of luminaires I – III via  
 modular

DIM BASIC

.

2.  Select respective channels via selector switch on  
 modular

DIM DM

 module.

3.  Save the daytime system point by pressing (> 5 s) the Sun key (Sys B)  
  by means of e.g. a ball-point.
4.  Storage of the system point is acknowledged by the flashing of the  
  lighting source.
5.  For programming further channels, repeat steps 1–4.
6.  Select the channel you wish to control via daylight management by  
  selecting the appropriate channel or combinations of channels using 
  the selector switch on the modular

DIM DM

 module.

Programming of twilight set points

The settings should be programmed under twilight conditions, preferably, 
when hardly any daylight is present. Alternatively, the settings may be 
programmed during the day, with the daylight-sensor covered.
