ELCD 1008
Isolite Corp 31 Waterloo Ave, Berwyn PA
7
Note:
The system supports connection of up to 10 ELCD 1008 units connected in
parallel to the fire alarm device.
The ELCD 1008 features a single pole auxiliary relay that provides switching for installations utilizing 0–10V or
Digital Addressable Lighting Interface (DALI) controls. In the event of an emergency, the relay opens the control
circuit, sending any connected loads to their full intensity output.
0-10V Auxiliary Output
Note:
All low–voltage Class 2 wiring must be separated from all Class 1 wiring. Follow local codes
and installation restrictions.
Isolite
recommends limiting the distance run for the 0–10V control wiring from the
controller to the last ballast (driver) to 300ft, based on 18 AWG wire.
1. Run a +10V wire, typically purple, between the 0–10V controller and the 0–10V terminal 10 in the ELCD 1008
and secure the terminal onto the wire.
2. Run a +10V wire, typically purple, between 0–10V ballast and the 0–10V terminal 9 in the ELCD 1008 and
secure the terminal onto the wire.
3. Run a common wire, typically gray, between the 0–10V controller and the 0–10V ballast.
Fire Alarm Input
The ELCD 1008 features a single dry–contact input that can
be used to force the transfer from normal to emergency
state, even if both normal and emergency power are
present. The contact may be configured for either normally
closed (NC) or normally open (NO) operation by setting
switch 1 and 2 on the ELCD1008 control board.
1. Run a positive control wire between the fire alarm device
and the FIRE ALARM 11 “+” terminal in the ELCD 1008
and secure the terminal onto the wire.
2. Run a negative (common) control wire between the fire
alarm device and the FIRE ALARM terminal 12 “-”and
secure the terminal onto the wire.
3. Set the fire alarm contact input configuration switches for
either normally open or normally closed operation.
