LED Brightness Configuration
WARNING
This is not user configurable and must be set by a qualified electrician / installer as it requires isolating power to
the unit and removing the enclosure lid.
The brightness of the LEDs can be configured if the end user requests. This setting can be configured
using the brightness configuration DIP switch SW3 (Fig. C – 7) and the brightness configuration table in
Annex 1
Procedure
1.
Ensure power to the unit is off and has been isolated
2.
Remove the enclosure lid
3.
Carefully adjust the settings of DIP switch SW3 (Fig. C – 7)
4.
Replace enclosure lid and restore power the unit
Using Simple Load Share (SLS)
WARNING
This is not user configurable and must be set by a qualified electrician / installer. Installing and configuring SLS
for EcoLites need to be done with consideration for other components and infrastructure. Misuse of this could
cause fire and injury.
Two EcoLites installed near each other can make use of Simple Load Share functionality. This
integrated functionality, once enabled, will allow two EcoLites to safely share one supply. When two
EVs are plugged in, the SLS system will engage and share the total available power (nominally half to
each to vehicle). If one EV is plugged in or charging, then all power will be made available again.
SLS works in conjunction with the current configuration dip switch (Fig. C - 8), which sets the
maximum available current for the whole system and
must
be set the same for both EcoLites.
Procedure
1.
Ensure power to the unit is off has been isolated
2.
Remove the enclosure lid
3.
Connect the correct terminals together on each EcoLite as per connection diagram below
4.
Use appropriate grommets to bring the chosen wire into and out of the units
5.
Carefully adjust the settings of DIP switch SW3 (Fig. C – 7) using the table on Annex 2 as
reference (this table is also printed on the circuit board)
6.
Replace enclosure lid and restore power the unit
7.
Test the correct operation of the functionality
Note: We suggest using 2 x twisted pair of around 24AWG. Ethernet cable is suitable for this reason.
