LMS Detectors

Lighting management system (LMS) detectors provide optimum lighting conditions and maximum design flexibility for office lighting projects of any size.Driven by the presence of people rather than the time of day, linked detectors provide a fully integrated lighting and lighting management system far more effectively than old-style time-of-day lighting management systems and stand-alone controls. The enhanced performance of the system is made possible with linked detectors incorporating presence detection, light regulation and the ability to communicate with each other.Linked detectors offer many benefits to users:

Communication

Linked detectors communicate occupancy information throughout a building by way of a low voltage dedicated bus. This ability makes many of the unique features possible.

Setting-up Zones of Detectors

Linked detectors may be set-up to switch luminaires in groups over nominated work zones. These zones may be easily re-configured without alteration to hard wiring.A typical example of how a building is zoned can be seen below. A number (1,2,3 etc) within a shaded square area denotes a programmed zone; C denotes a Common Zone and B denotes a Building Zone.

Operation of Zones of Detectors

Presence detected anywhere within the zone ensures all the luminaires in the group remain on.

Operation of Common Zones

Notional corridors and safety routes may be configured as Common Zones. All the lights in Common Zones are held on when there is activity elsewhere on the bus network.

Photocell Control

Luminaires with regulating ballasts compensate for daylight automatically to ensure a constant lighting level on the working plane.

Global Zones

By assigning the detector to one of two global zones it can be activated from a single position which would be beneficial for security and when load shedding may be necessary.

Ballast Compatibility

LMS detectors are suitable for DALI, DSI and HF (detectors can not dim standard HF ) ballasts.

Scene-setting

Users can set up to six lighting scenes by infrared remote control and recall them with a single press of a button via the HC5 controller or the Scene Switch Panel. This unique feature makes the system ideal for multi-function rooms that require different lighting scenes on different occasions, as illustrated. There is also a Partition Switch feature for use in areas which can be sub-divided into separate rooms. A typical example of a meeting room utilising scene-setting can be seen below. Various LMS detection units are available for all shapes and sizes of areas and switching requirements to provide building-wide lighting management.

Group Dimming

Groups of luminaires may be brightened, dimmed and switched on/off by remote control.Entry and Exit ScenesThe entry scene is automatically selected when the area becomes occupied. Similarly, there is an option to select an exit scene for when an area is vacated.
