Glossary of Terms
•
Addressing
- how the controls on a link identify
each other. Control stations are assigned an
address between 1 and 32, using addressing
switches 1 through 5 on the unit. Refer to the
instructions shipped with the control station or the
LCP128 Installation Guide
for further information.
•
Afterhours Mode
- a time clock mode typically
used for turning selected lights off at the end of a
building’s normal business hours. The system first
warns occupants that the lights are going to turn off
by flashing the lights (flash count), then waits for a
period of time (off delay) before automatically turning
the lights off. If an occupant wants the lights to
remain on (or turn back on), they can press a
wallstation button that controls those lights. The
lights then remain on for a set amount of time (warn
time) and then the process repeats. This process
continues until an afterhours end time clock event
occurs.
•
Contact Closure Input (CCI)
- an input provided to
the system in the form of two contacts completing a
circuit (dry contact closure). This input could be
from a button or a relay controlled by another
system (fire alarm, building management system,
etc.)
•
Contact Closure Output (CCO)
- an output
provided from the system in the form of two
contacts completing a circuit (dry contact closure).
This output could be from a OMX-AV, OMX-CCO-8,
button, key switch, or time clock event.
•
Control Link
- the daisy-chained link of control
stations wired to the
LCP128
panel(s).
•
Control Station
- a device located on the control
link that provides low-voltage inputs and / or
outputs, typically a wallstation, key switch, OMX-
CCO-8, OMX-RS232, or OMX-AV.
•
Custom Scene
- a scene assigned to and
programmed for a specific time clock event, button
press, or contact closure input.
•
Delay to Off
- up to a 90 minute delay programmed
for a group of circuits before turning the lights off;
can be recalled by pressing a single button.
•
Emergency Mode
- a mode where all inputs to the
system are disabled and circuits are dimmed or
turned on or off as set in the emergency mode
setup. Activated by the loss of power on the
emergency sense line.
•
Flash Count
- the number of times the lights will
flash to warn an occupant that the lights are going
to turn off automatically.
•
Holiday
- a special time clock schedule that is set to
start on a specific date and last a set number of
days. The schedule for a holiday
overrides the weekly schedule that
would normally occur on that day.
•
Holiday Event
- a time clock event that is set to
occur on a holiday.
•
LCD (Liquid Crystal Display)
- the graphical display
built into the
LCP128
controller that is used to
configure the system.
•
LED (Light Emitting Diode)
- an illuminated
indicator to help in diagnosing controller and control
station operation.
•
Maintained vs. Momentary
- a CCO from the
LCP128
can be programmed to be a pulse
(momentary) or constant (maintained) output.
•
NTOMX-KS
- a control station that requires a key.
The key switch can be programmed for a clockwise
and counter-clockwise turn.
•
OMX-AV
- a control station that is connected to the
control link and provides up to 5 contact closure
inputs and 5 contact closure outputs.
•
OMX-CCO-8
- a control station that is connected to
the control link and provides up to 8 contact closure
outputs.
•
OMX-RS232
- a control interface device that
facilitates building management integration through
RS232 commands.
•
Open Action vs. Closure Action
- a CCI into the
LCP128
can be programmed to respond to the
opening or closing of the contact.
•
Scene
- programmed settings for a circuit or group
of circuits, creating an effect that can be recalled by
pressing a single button, turning a key, etc.
•
Time Clock Event
- an action that is set to occur at
a particular time of day or at a time relative to
sunrise or sunset (astronomical).
•
Toggle
- an action that switches the assigned
circuits between on and off. If the assigned circuits
are in a mixed state (some on and some off), the
circuits will turn on.
•
Wallstation
- a control station that mounts on a
wall, contains one or more buttons, and wires to the
control link. The buttons can be used to activate
scenes, toggle circuits, etc.
•
Warn Time
- the amount of time a light can be
turned on, by a wallstation or CCI, before
automatically being turned off in afterhours mode.
•
Weekly Event
- a time clock event that is set to
occur on a specific day of the week (Sunday -
Saturday).
