•
If the pre-sequencing test indicated that all of the installed heads were illuminated, the
unresponsive head must be replaced.
•
If the pre-sequencing test was not performed, look for loose or reverse polarity wiring at the
unresponsive head.

Compiling the Ordered Heads list
Location testing is done to identify the physical location of each installed luminaire. Each luminaire
is moved from the Unordered Heads list into the Ordered Heads list in the order that the tests are
conducted. To do the location testing, use a screwdriver (or a length of wood like a broomstick) to
strike the shaft of the luminaire (if it is not possible to strike the luminaire’s shaft, strike the fence
post on which the luminaire is mounted). Strike the shaft once firmly, to register the luminaire in the
Ordered Heads list. This will cause the luminaire to flash twice, pause for a second, and then flash
three times to indicate the luminaire has been moved into the Ordered Heads list. In the Ordered
Heads list, the luminaire is identified by a number indicating the test order and by its 5-digit
network Id (see
).
If the luminaire flashes 4 times, this indicates that a second luminaire has also detected the
location test event. In this case, repeat the procedure using less force when striking the shaft.
If the luminaire flashes 5 times without pausing, this indicates that the luminaire is already included
in the Ordered Heads table. In this case, proceed to the next luminaire and continue the location
testing.
1.
Select the Record button below the Ordered Heads table and proceed to the designated first
luminaire (usually the luminaire AP).
2.
Strike the shaft of the first luminaire firmly once.
The luminaire will flash twice pause and then flash three times. The number one and the
luminaire’s 5 digit Id are displayed at the top of the Ordered Heads list.
3.
Proceed to the second luminaire and strike the shaft of the second luminaire once.
The luminaire will flash twice pause and then flash three times. The number two and the
luminaire’s 5 digit Id are displayed on the second line of the Ordered Heads list.
4.
Proceed around the perimeter doing a location test at each luminaire, thereby, moving each
luminaire to the Ordered Heads list in the desired sequence.
5.
After conducting the location test at the final luminaire on the perimeter, return to the UCM
computer and select the Stop button.
6.
The Ordered Heads table is now populated by luminaires in the same order that the location
tests were done.

Compiling the Head Sequence list on page 55

Compiling the Head Sequence list
The Head Sequence list can be compiled one by one, or all of the heads in the Ordered Heads
column can be moved to the Head Sequence table at once. To compile the list one head at a time,
select a head from the Ordered Heads list then select the double arrow beside the Head
Sequence column. To move all of the heads to the Head Sequence table at once, select the first
luminaire in the Ordered Heads list, hold down the shift key and select the last luminaire in the
Ordered Heads list to highlight all of the luminaires. Next, select the double arrow button to move
the Ordered Heads list to the Head Sequence list in the same order.
Tip
Use a site plan and mark the number down (in the same order the tests
are conducted) beside each luminaire’s location as the tests proceed.
