Terminology Used in this Guide
This guide uses standard terminology to describe the various aspects of equipment and operation. This brief section
provides an overview of certain terms.
Source Controller
A cabinet containing power dimming and/or switching circuitry to which lighting (or other) loads are
directly connected.
Control Panel
A compact fold out console which is contained
within the front panel door of the SC-UN Source
Controller. The control panel has an LCD screen
and a keypad, and permits many conguration settings to be made to the SC-UN Source Controller.
Output
An Output is physical circuit where electrical loads
are connected and controlled. SC-UN Source
Controllers can have between six and twenty four
separate Outputs, depending on the model.
All SC-UN Outputs can be congured to dim or
switch high voltage loads and can also provide low
voltage dimming control signals where required.
Each Output within the SC-UN Source Controller
has a physical number which cannot be altered.
Zone
A Zone is a virtual representation of one or more
Outputs. For instance, a room might contain three
lights, each of which is connected to a separate
Output on the Source Controller. If all three lights
need to be switched On or dimmed in the same
way, then it makes sense to represent them all as a
single Zone.
The Outputs represented by a Zone do not need to
be within the same Source Controller, they could
be spread across any number of different Source
Controllers.
Once the Outputs are represented by a Zone, the
physical number related to each Output is only of
relevance within the Source Controller that contains
it. To all other devices, the Zone is the only item of
interest.
Scene
A Scene is a collection of settings for any number of
Zones. They are the equivalent of cues in theatrical
lighting.
For example, a hotel restaurant has breakfast, lunch
and evening sittings. There are four Zones: Ceiling
spots, wall washers, chandeliers and table lights.
The manager wants to create a different mood for
each sitting. Rather than adjusting each of the
four Zones individually every time, you can collect
different dimming levels for the channels into three
separate Scenes (one for each sitting) and apply
each to a different button on the wallstation.
Changing between the sittings becomes simple and
consistent thanks to easy Scene selection.
Area
An Area is a collection of one or more Zones that
might have related operations. The most common
example for an Area would be a single room.
Imagine a restaurant with three zones: main ceiling
lighting, worktop task lights and a pendant lamp
over the table. The room has two wallstations.
By grouping the three Zones into a single Area, it
becomes straightforward to allow each wallstation
to adjust any of the Zones within the room.
Contact Closure Input
Each Source Controller has two volt-free contacts
which can be used to accept inputs from external
devices like re and intruder alarms so that lighting
can be automatically taken to a predetermined level
to assist with visibility.
Source Type
There are many different technologies that are used
in today’s buildings to create light. Incandescent,
Fluorescent (dimmable and non-dimmable), LED,
Neon/Cold Cathode, MLV - Magnetic Low Voltage,
and ELV - Electronic Low Voltage are examples of
source types.
P5
Wallstation
A wall mounted User Interface with either physical
buttons or a touchscreen that allows occupants of
a room to adjust lighting levels or controlling other
devices like A/V equipment or shades.
Device
Any iLumin equipment. For example, an Ineo is a
Device. A Source Controller is also a Device.
Node
Any iLumin Device connected to the iCAN network.
For example, Source Controllers, Ineo’s and Revio’s
connected to the iCAN network are Nodes.
Segment
Devices connected together on the iCAN network
in a daisy chain. Each Segment is terminated with
120-ohm resistors at both ends of the daisy chain.
A Segment can contain up to 100 Nodes.

Objective: To identify the layout of the CAN network (also known as iCANnet) and connect the SC-UN Source
Controller (and other devices) to it. Verify the electrical characteristics of the network and terminate the end devices.
To identify the CAN network wiring layout
1. Use the installation plans to determine the layout of
the installed CAN network.
2. Determine where the SC-UN Source Controller(s) are
connected in the CAN network. In particular, identify
the devices that are located at either end of the CAN
network segment - these are the devices that must be
terminated.
General CAN network requirements
The CAN network requires devices to be linked together in a daisy-chain arrangement. A single run of
daisy-chained devices is called a Segment.
CAN network wiring
To wire all devices to the CAN network
1. Open the main panel door.
2. Remove the small access hatch cover located at the
base of the central panel by removing the four retaining screws.
3. If not already done, feed the CAN network cable(s) via
one of the four base knockouts through to the control
board area.
Note: There should be two CAN network cables un-
less the SC-UN Source Controller is at the end of the
network segment, in which case there will only be one
cable.
IMPORTANT: Keep all low voltage control wiring separate from high voltage power cabling to ensure safety
and noise immunity.
4. Connect the CAN network cable(s) to the iCAN
connector(s) on the control board according to the
following pin-outs:
Un-terminated device
Terminated device
There are three main constraints for a CAN network
segment:
• The combined cable lengths of the segment may
not exceed 3280 feet (1000 meters), and
• No more than 100 devices or nodes may be con-
nected within a single segment.
• Terminate the devices at each end of the segment
with a 120- ohm resistor. Leave the remaining
devices on the segment un-terminated.
Where more than 100 devices or excessive overall
cable lengths are required, it is necessary to use a
Bridge device to link two or more segments together.
Contact Cooper Lighting Solutions for details about
bridge devices.
5. Connect all other remaining devices to the CAN
network according to the installation plans and the
specic instructions for each device.
P12
To terminate end devices
iCAN
TERM

TERM
1. Locate the iCAN termination jumper on the control
board of the SC-UN Source Controller. It is next to one
of the two iCAN connectors.
2. Set the jumper according to the position of the SC-UN
Source Controller within the CAN network layout:
• If the SC-UN is one of the end devices, set the
jumper to the ‘iCAN TERM’ position.
• If the SC-UN is NOT one of the end devices in the
network, set the link to the other end of the jumper
block.
3. Check all remaining devices to ensure that only the
end devices are terminated.
Note: Some devices use jumper links (like the SCUN) for termination control, others require a 120 Ohm
resistor to be placed between the CAN-L and CAN-H
connections. Check the documentation for each device.
4. Replace the small access hatch cover and secure with
the four screws removed earlier.
P13
Step 2: Visually inspect all wiring and components and Power up the Source
Controller

Objective: To conrm the location, type and current of the loads attached to each Output, prior to removing the bypass
jumper.
To apply power to each Output and determine the location and type of the load
WARNING: Before applying power to any Output, check
that the associated load wiring and load(s) are in a
safe condition and are ready to be energized. With the
bypass jumper in place on the Output card, power will
be fed through to the load as soon as the breaker is
switched on.
For SC-UN
1. For a single Output, place the associated breaker into
the ON (Up) position to supply power to that Output.
2. Using the installation plans as a guide, walk around
the installation site and identify which luminaires have
been energized as a result of switching on the breaker.

3. Log a description of the luminaires against the Output
number. Also note the type of luminaires used as this
information will be needed when setting the Output
behaviors prior to removing the bypass jumpers.
4. Leave all unused breakers in the down (off) position.
WARNING: Before applying power to any Output, check
that the associated load wiring and load(s) are in a safe
condition and are ready to be energized. With the bypass
jumper in place on the Output card, power will be fed
through to the load as soon as the channel HOT screw
terminal is connected.
For SC-UN-FT
1. For each used Output, make certain that the orange
disconnect lever on the breaker wiring terminal block is
engaged across the hot terminal. Ensure that the bypass
jumper is still in place on the output card.
2. Locate the circuit breaker that feeds the rst dimmer out-
put.
3. Energize the circuit breaker.
4. Using the installation plans as a guide, walk around the

Measure the current draw of the load
For SC-UN
1. For the Output that is currently energized, locate the
live wire that exits from the base of the breaker.
2. Carefully place a clamp meter around the wire and
read the current. If the reading exceeds 16 amps then
you must not proceed any further with this circuit. There
may be a short circuit or the load is too large. Check all
wiring and each luminaire. If necessary, consider split-
ting the load across more than one Output.

Options when conguring Output behaviors
There are various options available to congure the
behaviors of each Output to suit their connected loads.
These pages summarize all of the options.
Standard Type
Use this option to quickly congure all of the default
settings for a particular type of load connected to an
Output. The various default settings are summarized
below:
Once the standard type settings are in place for the
Output, you can then optionally visit the other options
separately to adjust the conguration if required.
Set Zone/Area
This option allows you to assign the Output to a Zone
and Area number, without the need to use the iCANsoft application. The Zone number will be used to
identify the Output across the iCANnet network.
Power Curve
This option determines the relationship between the
requested dimmer level and the actual power level
supplied to the load. There are three options to cover
the various load types that can be controlled.
• Linear produces a like-for-like response, i.e. 40%
level requested, 40% power level supplied.
Linear

curve
Square Law
response
curve
• Square Law modies the relationship to account for
how the human eye adapts to reduced light levels.
The above graph reects the difference between the
linear and square law power response curves.
• Switched is either fully on or fully off. Any dimming
level request above zero will cause full power to be
instantly supplied.
P21
HF Curve
This option denes the relationship of the low voltage
(0-10V) Output to the dimmer level. The ranges that
can be selected are: 1-10V, 0-10V, 10-1V, 10-0V.
Min/Max
Allows you to dene the minimum and/or maximum
dimming levels. This option is used primarily when
loads of certain types are used, such as neons, which
become unstable at extremely low dimming levels.
Both settings are expressed as percentages of the
total standard dimming range. When the range of an
Output is congured in this way, its reduced dimming
range will be scaled to t within the normal 0 to 100%
dimming instructions received from wallstations and
other controllers.
Stabilization
This option invokes a system that lters uctuations in
the main power source to maintain a consistent true
voltage level to the connected load.
Relay Zero-Cross
When this option is set to ‘Switch at 0 Volts’, the opening and closing of the relay will be synchronized with
the zero-crossing point of the sine wave in order to
protect the relay contacts from arc damage.
In most instances, you should leave this option enabled.
Operation at Min
This option determines what the Output should do
when the chosen Minimum level is reached.
When this option is set to ‘Turn Off’, the Output will
switch off when the corresponding minimum level is
reached.
When this option is set to ‘Stay at Min’, the Output will
remain at the corresponding minimum level.
Startup Action
This option determines how the selected Output
should recover from a power failure once the supply is
restored. There are three settings available:
• Restore Last Scene reinstates the scene that was
being displayed when the power outage occurred.
• Use Emergency Scene will display the scene that
is dened within the ‘Conguration’ > ‘Emergency
Scene Edit’ option.
• Select Scene allows you to assign any standard
scene numbered up to 128. When you select this
setting, a sub page will request the scene number.
Air-Gap Isolation
This option relates to the operation of the relay which
is used within each output to ensure full ‘air gap’ load
isolation when the dimming level is at zero.
When this option is set to ‘Open at 0%’, the relay will
isolate the circuit when the dimming level reaches
zero.
When this option is set to ‘Disabled’, the relay will
maintain contact continually and will not isolate the
circuit at any time.
P22
Step 6: Remove the bypass jumpers on
used Outputs.
Step 7: Cover the Source Controller and
power the unit
Objective: To release each active Output circuit so that
dimming control becomes possible.
To remove the bypass jumper

What is the Emergency Scene?
The Emergency Scene is a group of settings for one
or more Outputs that will only be used in cases of
emergency, generally to provide evacuation lighting.
The Emergency Scene can be invoked in any of four
ways:
• When a Contact Closure Input places the Source
Controller into the Emergency State (a condition
where most CAN messages are ignored and the
Emergency Scene is displayed until such time
that the Emergency State is cancelled).
• During the restoration of the supply following a
power outage (dependant on the setting within
the Congure Outputs Startup Action option -
see page 20).
• By using the ‘Operation’ > ‘Output Override’ >
‘Select Scene’ option and selecting Scene 132.
• On receipt of an iCANnet Emergency message.

Step 16 (continued)
Event options
Type
This option determines whether the event should be
based on an absolute time (‘Time’) or a variable occurrence (‘Astro’) such as dawn or dusk. A ‘Disabled’
setting allows you to make the current event inactive.
Repeat
Exact Time - Begins the selected action only at a
specied time, day, month and year.
Daily - Begins the selected action at the specied time
every day.
Specic Days - Begins the selected action at the
specied time on every day that is chosen within this
option. When you rst choose this option, the screen
will show: ‘No days selected’. Press the numeric buttons between 1 and 7 (button 1 = Sunday, 2= Monday,
etc.) to include or exclude the days when the event
should occur.
Annually - Begins the selected action once a year at
the specied time and date.
Time (and date) setting
The time (and date, where appropriate) setting has
different effects depending on the setting of the ‘Type’
option:
• If ‘Type’ is set to ‘Time’ then this setting provides an
absolute start time for the chosen action.
• If ‘Type’ is set to ‘Astro’ then this setting provides an
offset period for the chosen action, from the astro-
nomical event. For example, if the ‘Before Dusk’
option is set and the time setting shows 02:00, then
the event will be started two hours before dusk.
Astronomical setting
These options appear only when the ‘Type’ option is
set to ‘Astro’. This setting will appear in the summary
screen, immediately after the time setting. The system uses the location coordinates as well as the time
and date to calculate when each astronomical event
should occur.
Absolute Time - Changes the ‘Type’ option from ‘Astro’ back to ‘Time’.
Before Dawn - Begins the selected action at a period
(dened by the time setting) before dawn.
After Dawn - Begins the selected action at a period
(dened by the time setting) after dawn.
Before Dusk - Begins the selected action at a period
(dened by the time setting) before dusk.
After Dusk - Begins the selected action at a period
(dened by the time setting) after dusk.
Action
The list of actions are collected into two groups: ‘Basic’ and ‘Advanced’ (there are links from one group to
the other within the list). In all cases, the chosen action
occurs when the corresponding event’s time conditions are met.
Basic
No Action - Effectively disables the event.
Select Scene - Displays a Scene (within a particular
Area) over a selected fade time.
Zone Level - Applies a nal dimming level to a single
Zone (within a particular Area) over a selected Fade
time.
Advanced
Zone Increment - Increases the dimming level of a
single Zone (within a particular Area) by a chosen percentage over a selected Fade time.
Zone Decrement - Decreases the dimming level of
a single Zone (within a particular Area) by a chosen
percentage over a selected Fade time.
Scene Modify - Selectively alters the dimming level of
any currently displayed Scene within a particular Area
over a set fade time. Within each Scene, only those
Outputs that have been previously marked as ‘Scene
Modify’ (in iCANsoft) or ‘SM’ (in the Source Controller
menu) will be altered. All Outputs that have not been
marked will remain unaffected by this action. See Step
9 for details about applying the ‘SM’ mark.
Zone Toggle - Changes between the current dimming
level of a single zone (within a particular Area) and the
level entered in this option over a selected Fade time.
Start Sequence - Sets a pre-programmed sequence
(created using the iCANsoft application) running, be-
ginning at any chosen step from 1 to 30.
Stop Sequence - Stops a pre-programmed sequence
at any chosen step from 1 to 30.
Pause Sequence - Pauses a pre-programmed se-
quence.
Send CAN message - Transmits a CAN message that
has been pre-programmed using iCANsoft.
Enable Event - Allows another event to become active
when the parameters of this event become true. This
is useful for conning repetitive event actions to occur
only within a set period of time.
Disable Event - Changes an active event to its disa-
bled state when the parameters of this event become
true.

Objective: Congure DMX to allow DMX consoles to control the Source Controller Outputs.
To map Outputs to DMX channels
DMX Output Mapping allows you assign the SC-UN
Outputs to any DMX control channels between 1 and
512. This can either be done sequentially from a particular
DMX channel or you can assign each Output individually.
1. From the Conguration menu, highlight the ‘DMX Op-
tions’ entry and press the
options will be displayed:

Output Mapping menu.
Individual mapping
a. Highlight the ‘Individually’ option and press the
button.
Note: The default for each Output is set to “w.p.”- ‘DMX
When Present’. This means that DMX controls the output
when present, otherwise CAN does.

To set the DMX Air-Gap mode
The Air-Gap mode is a standard feature which ensures
that the load circuits connected to each Output are isolated (via opened relay contacts at the live terminal) when
the dimming level reaches zero. In certain cases this may
be undesirable, for instance when lights are regularly being dimmed or ashed on and off, due to slight delays in
lamp response that may be caused.
A DMX input from a theater-style controller may often
be used to induce such behavior, therefore, this option
provides an ability to disable the air-gap relay protection
only when the control signals are being received via the
DMX input.
1. From the Conguration menu, highlight the ‘DMX Op-
tions’ entry and press the
options will be displayed:
2. Highlight the ‘Air-Gap Mode’ option and press the

button:
• When set to ‘Opens at 0%’, the relay will open when

• When this option is set to ‘Disabled’, the relay will
maintain contact continually and will not isolate the
circuit at any time while under DMX control.
