ICP Electronics EBDSPIR-AT-AD Product Manual

Overview

The EBDSPIR-AT-AD is a passive infrared (PIR) motion sensor combined with two output channels capable of controlling incandescent, fluorescent and compact fluorescent lighting.

Output Channel 1 comprises a mains voltage relay capable of simple on/off switching, while Output Channel 2 provides dimmable control of 1-10V ballasts.

Functioning as a presence detector, the unit can turn lights on when a room is occupied and off when the room is empty. Optional settings allow lights to be turned off in response to ambient daylight, or to implement a maintained illuminance (constant light) system. The unit also includes stored scenes for versatile manual control of lighting levels.

The EBDSPIR-AT-AD can be used as a standalone unit or integrated with other devices as part of a system. The built-in RF transceiver allows wireless communication with all other An-10® compatible products, e.g. the AT-BB-IN Input Unit, useful for push-button scene selection and absence detection.

All functionality is fully programmable.

Product Guide

Choosing a Suitable Location

The EBDSPIR-AT-AD is designed to be ceiling mounted and must satisfy the following criteria:

 Avoid positioning the unit where direct sunlight may

enter the sensor element.

 Do not site the sensor within 1m of any lighting, forced

air heating or ventilation.

 Do not fix the sensor to an unstable or vibrating

surface.

 Position the sensor so that the occupants of the room

fall inside the detection zone shown in below. Note that the detection zone illustrated is based on a recommended mounting height of 2.8m. A lower height will decrease the overall size of the detection zone.

Installation

Mounting Methods

The EBDSPIR-AT-AD is designed to be mounted using either:

 Flush fixing, or  Surface fixing, using the optional

Surface Mounting Box (part no. DBB).

Both methods are illustrated in below.

Example 1: Single channel switching

Example 2: Single channel dimming

Functionality

 Dimmable load control via suitable

ballast/transformer.

 Mains power to ballast switched

by channel 1.

 Presence or absence detection

(with or without Lux Level control).

 Manual scene/level control using

IR Handset or AT-BB-IN Input Unit and associated switch/button plate.

 Optional Maintained Illuminance

Level control.

Functionality

 Simple On/Off load control.  Presence detection.  Absence detection using an AT-

BB-IN Input Unit and associated switch/button plate.

 Manual On/Off control using IR

Handset.

 Lux switching.

Channel 1 (switched output) of the EBDSPIR-AT-AD can either be used to switch a separate channel of standard, non-dimming luminaires, or to isolate the mains supply to dimming ballasts (saving on the standby current of the ballasts).

Multiple luminaires may be connected in parallel to Channel 1 (via the N and L/Out terminals) as long as the maximum total load is not exceeded.

Channel 2 (dimmable output) of the EBDSPIR-AT-AD can be used to control the light output of luminaires that are fitted with dimming ballasts/transformers.

Up to 10 ballasts/transformers can be connected in parallel to Channel 2 (via the DIM– and DIM+ terminals). Ensure that correct polarity is maintained at each ballast.

The wiring examples below show common methods of connecting the output channels for a single detector unit.

Wiring examples

1-10V

When power is applied to the unit, the load will turn on immediately.

Vacate the room or remain very still and wait for the load to switch off (this should take around 10 minutes).

Check that the load switches on when movement is detected.

The unit is now ready for programming.

Power-up test procedure

What if the load does not turn ON?

 Check that the live supply to the circuit is good.  Check that the load is functioning by bypassing the sensor (e.g. link terminals L and L/ Out on Channel1).  Check that the unit is correctly addressed, see ‘Step 1: Set channel addresses and channel load type’ on page 7.  If the detection range is smaller than expected, check the diagrams in page 2. Rotating the sensor slightly may

improve the detection range.

HINT: The Walk Test LED function can be used to check that the unit is detecting movement in the required area

(see page 8 for further details).

What if the load does not turn OFF?

 Ensure that the area is left unoccupied for longer than the Time Adjustment Period (default is 10 minutes).  Ensure that the sensor is not adjacent to circulating air, heaters or lamps.

HINT: The Walk Test LED function can be used to check that the unit is detecting movement in the required area (see page 8 for further details).

Fault finding

Basic programming

The functionality of the EBDSPIR-AT-AD Sensor is controlled by a number of parameters which can be changed or programmed by any of the following devices:

 UHS4 Infrared Handset  UNLCDHS Infrared Handset (with LCD)

For most basic programming operations the UHS4 handset is recommended and the following procedures are based on using this device.

Point the handset at the Sensor and send the required programming commands to the unit as shown in Steps 1, 2 and 3.

Valid commands will be indicated by a green LED flash. See page 1 for details of other LED responses.

Basic programming

Step 1: Set channel addresses and channel load type

The Sensor has two output channels:

 Channel 1 - Switched Output  Channel 2 - Dimmable Output

and one input channel:

 Channel 3 - PIR Sensor

To relate the function of different channels it is necessary to set the addresses correctly. For example, a scene select message sent from a device with a Local Code of 1 will only be actioned by devices that also have a Local Code of 1.

To program the settings for a specific channel on the Sensor you must specify the appropriate channel number (i.e.1 to 3) using the programming device.

If no channel number (or channel 0) is specified, all channels will be set to the same address.

The output channels also have Circuit numbers. This allows different physical channels to be linked and controlled as a single Circuit.

Channel 2 (the dimmable output) can control 1-10V ballasts.

Note: for applications where there is only one channel of lighting being controlled in a room there is no need to select the channel number.

Step 2: Set-up sensor functionality

Detection Mode

The Detection Mode for both output Channels 1 and 2 can be set to behave in Presence or Absence mode:

 Presence mode allows a channel to turn on when

movement is detected. Once turned on, if no movement is detected the Time Adjustment (10 minutes by default) the channel will turn off.

 Absence mode requires the channel to be turned on by

some other means (e.g. by issuing a Scene Select message via an Input Unit or IR Handset). Once turned on, if no movement is detected for period of time (the Time Adjustment) the channel will turn off.

In either case, sensitivity to movement of the PIR sensor (Channel 3) can be adjusted using the Sensitivity parameter (set to 5 by default).

HINT: To assist in setting the Sensitivity, turn on the Walk

Test LED which will flash red when movement is detected.

By default when the detector turns on Local Scene 1 is selected. When the detector turns off Local Scene 20 is

selected. See ‘Scenes Used for Occupancy Detection’ in

Step 3 for further details.

Switch Level On/Off

Occupancy detection can be made dependant on the ambient light level using the Lux On Level and Lux Off Level parameters.

Maintained Illuminance

The detector measures the overall light level in the detection area and calculates the correct output for the luminaires, to achieve a preset lux level (maintained illuminance or daylight harvesting).

By specifying a Maintained Illuminance Light Level the unit adjusts the output Channel levels to maintain a near constant light level.

Programming Maintained Illuminance Light Level

 Presence detection Sensing mode (below)  Absence detection Scene mode (opposite)

Basic programming

Note: for applications where there is only one channel of lighting being controlled in a room there is no need to select the channel number.

The EBDSPIR-AT-AD has capacity to store 20 Local Scenes and 120 Area Scenes. By default all Scenes are pre-programmed with the following channel levels, but these can be changed as required:

NOTE: Local Scene 20 and Area Scene 120 are

designated ‘off’ scenes within a system and should

normally be programmed with all channels off or at zero. Scenes can be recalled by using an IR Handset or by a switch/button plate via an AT-BB-IN Input Unit.

Local Scenes

1 2 3 4 5 6 ... 19 20

Ch1 on on on on on on ... on off

Ch2 100% 75% 50% 25% 100% 75% ... 50% 0%

Area Scenes

101 102 103 104 105 106 ... 119 220

Ch1 on on on on on on ... on off

Ch2 100% 75% 50% 25% 100% 75% ... 50% 0%

Step 3: Re-program scenes

Each Scene has a Fade Rate, which is the time taken for the existing output channel levels to fade to the levels defined in the selected Scene. By default this is set to 3 seconds for all Scenes.

Each Scene also has a Maintained Illuminance Level setting. By default this is set to 0 (i.e. disabled) for all Scenes.

Scenes Used for Occupancy Detection

If movement is detected (in Presence mode), Local On Scene 1 is selected. By default this switches Channel 1 On and sets Channel 2 to 100% with a 1 second Fade Rate.

If no movement is detected for the Time Adjustment Period (in Presence or Absence mode), Local Off Scene 20 is selected. By default this switches Channel 1 Off and sets Channel 2 to 0% with a 1 second Fade Rate.

NOTE: These ‘On’ and ‘Off’ Scene selections cannot be

changed using the UHS4 handset. You can, however, reprogram the levels for Scenes 1 and 20 if required.

Basic programming

Example 1: Offices and corridor

Application examples

Example 1 shows two small offices, each with four downlighters controlled by a single EBDSPIR-AT-AD sensor. These are set-up for Presence detection such that the lights turn on when anyone enters the room and turn off when the room is vacated.

Similarly, the corridor lights are controlled by two sensors such that if either sensor detects movement, all of the corridor lights turn on. Note that only one sensor is physically wired to the lighting circuit.

In this arrangement the devices in each room need to be programmed with a unique Local Code, although the two devices in the corridor share the same code so that they can both control the corridor lights.

In addition, each unit needs its Time Adjustment Period set to an appropriate value.

Application examples

Example 2: Meeting room

Example 2 shows a more advanced application for a typical meeting room. Two EBDSPIR-AT-AD sensors are used, set

-up for Absence detection.

One sensor controls the six downlighters via Channel 1 (switched output) and two wall lights via Channel 2 (dimmed output). The other sensor controls the striplight over the whiteboard via Channel 1 (switched output) and the other two wall lights via Channel 2 (dimmed output).

Fully independent control of all four circuits can be provided with suitable scene programming. Scene selection and manual control of all circuit levels can be achieved via an IR Handset.

In addition, this example shows two AT-BB-IN input units used in conjunction with wall mounted button plates to provide manual selection of scenes.

Since the detectors are in Absence detection mode, lights will only turn on in response to manual operation of the button plates or IR Handset. If no movement is detected for the specified Time Adjustment Period, the lights will automatically turn off.
