Example
: The presence detector from lighting group 1 measures that the
light value is lower that the light target value and detects presence. Both
signals are transmitted to the SmartDriver via DALI, which sends a switch-
on command to all lights in lighting group 1.
The presence detector from lighting group 2 also reports a light value below
the light target value, but does not detect presence. Lighting group 2 is
therefore not switched on. Lighting group 2 activates either the lighting or
the orientation light, depending on the settings, only if the ELC bus trans-
mits the notification of a detected presence from lighting group 1 to light-
ing group 2.
Differences in the number of lights that can be controlled:
The ELC bus increases the number of lights that can be controlled because
it can connect up to 10 lighting groups:

4.4.2 Establishing an ELC bus connection
The required cable with RJ-11 plugs is included in the scope of delivery.
The RJ-11 sockets are wired in parallel, there are therefore no input or
output sockets.
The ELC bus configuration switch does not switch the bus connection on or
off, instead it configures the device for the bus connection. For this pur-
pose, the switch activates terminating resistances that must be present at
the start and the end of the ELC bus connection. If a switch is set incor-
rectly, the signal transmission is interrupted.
