Description
REGULATOR
A light sensor that measures the indoor illumination is installed.
An occupancy sensor is installed.
REGULATOR_NO_OCC
A light sensor that measures the indoor illumination is installed.
No occupancy sensor is installed.
REGULATOR_AUTO
Similar to REGULATOR, but a manual override is
automatically relinquished when the room becomes
unoccupied.
REGULATOR_BEDROOM
Similar to REGULATOR_AUTO, but a manual override is not
automatically relinquished when the lights are overridden to
off.
CONTROL
A light sensor that measures the outdoor illumination is
installed.
An occupancy sensor is installed.
CONTROL_NO_OCC
A light sensor that measures the outdoor illumination is
installed.
No occupancy sensor is installed.
CONTROL_AUTO
Similar to CONTROL, but a manual override is automatically
relinquished when the room becomes unoccupied.
CONTROL_BEDROOM
Similar to CONTROL_AUTO, but a manual override is not
automatically relinquished when the lights are overridden to
off.
PRESENCE
Based on occupancy the lights shall be switched on and off.
PRESENCE_AUTO
Similar to PRESENCE, but a manual override is automatically
relinquished when the room becomes unoccupied.
MANUAL_ON_AUTO_OFF
Lights are switched on manually, but shall be switched off
when the room becomes unoccupied.
AMBIENT
Effect or ambient lighting is switched on based on the measured
illumination level.
UPDATER
A DALI sensor with constant light controller functionality shall
be mapped to the CEA-709 network. Only the setpoint shall be
adjustable via the CEA-709 interface.
Table 23: Constant Light Controller Operation Modes
Regulator Mode
The REGULATOR mode has to be selected if the installed light sensor measures the indoor
brightness. The constant light controller receives the current indoor lux level via the input
network variable
nviLuxLevel
and adjusts the lamp level (from 0% to 100%) by means of a
fuzzy control algorithm.
When the light is switched on the control algorithm selects a lamp value which results in a
lux level close to the desired setpoint and then adjusts the lamp value in increments once
every second until the configured setpoint is reached. The size of increments is adjusted
dynamically but will never exceed the percentage value defined in the configuration
property
nciStep
.
The regulator mode is available in different flavors:
With our without occupancy sensor
: If an occupancy sensor is installed and the room
becomes unoccupied, the current light level is saved and the light is dimmed to
unoccupied level (see Section 8.2.8.8). If the room becomes occupied before the light
has reached the unoccupied level, the saved light level is restored.
With automatic relinquish
: Any manual override will be automatically relinquished
when the room becomes unoccupied. In a special bedroom mode the automatic
