3.3.4. Daylight Control Settings
Closed loop
A target Lux level is manually specified and the sensor will actively try to reach and
maintain the Lux level via a feedback loop (by
observing the results of its own changes). Sensors
are affected by luminaires and this mode can only
operate when it is the highest priority item on the
control hierarchy. An example of this is a group of
luminaires controlled by a daylight sensor located in
the same area as the luminaires.
Steps:
To avoid influence from other settings,
assign these to the CP initial values (see
appendix 1), then apply the steps below
1. Double tap on the scene that will have daylight
control to open the content of the scene. => Tap the
[Settings] icon at the bottom right
2. Choose the daylight control option
3. Set
Mode of operation:
a. Basic ON/OFF, or close loop or open loop.
=> choose
[Closed loop]
4. Select the
[Controlling sensors]:
a. Choose one from the list. When multiple sensors are
chosen, their average value will be used.
5. Enable
[Use the full dim range]. This MUST be set for
the CP Electronics sensor to respond.
6. Set the slider for
[Desired Illuminance]: e.g. 500 Lux.
a.
Tap the number to input exact value.
All the luminaires within this scene will now be under
the control of the daylight control function. Allow a minute or so for it to take effect. The default
settings will give a slow but smooth non-distracting response.
3.3.5. Faster Response Behaviour Settings
CP Electronics sensors can give faster daylight control
response if the
[Sensitivity] set higher. A lower
[Tolerance] setting aims to achieve closer to the desired
set level. The fastest response without much overshoot
is recommended as follows so try to stay under these
settings where possible.
Edit these properties of the light sensor by tapping
[Edit]
on the top right of the
[Luminaire] page:
Double tap the sensor and amend the properties
including those to do with light level control.
