Overview Introduction

Introduction

Thank you for choosing Leviton’s Z-MAX line of products for your relay needs. The ZMAX product line offers a scalable solution of relay and relay control which can fit any application from the simple 2 or 3-circuit needs with time clock control, to a complete campus solution, fully integrated with your building management system products.

This user’s guide is has four parts:

1 Detailed operational information, 2 A complete description of Simple programming mode, 3 An Advanced Programming Guide, and 4 A Systems Design Guide.

Part 1 contains detailed information about panel operation from the front panel

interface. This section walks you through all front panel features with complete descriptions of each.

The second, Part 2, contains a complete description of simple programming mode with documentation on all required programming steps and their application.

The Advanced Programming Guide, found as Part 3 of this manual, is your complete manual to configuring your Z-Max product. It covers all Z-Max features with a complete description of all menu options. The advanced programming guide assumes a basic familiarity with relay systems and Z-Max cabinet programming philosophy.

Part 4 of this manual contains the System Design Guide and is designed to familiarize yourself with the requirements common to more complex installations of ZMax and their related products.

on recommends always checking our

website at http://www.leviton.com/lms for latest version of this guide and late breaking notes, requirements, application information, and firmware updates.

This manual covers all products in the Z-Max product line as the steps given are somewhat generic in nature. The particular requirements for your product, especially as related to terminal location, may differ slightly from that shown. Please review all markings and labels on your product to ensure that your actions are correct.

Product Specifications & Capabilities

The specifications and capabilities for each product are shown in the table below, however, generally your product will fit into one of four categories. As the four categories are used throughout this manual, it’s helpful to recognize which category your product fits in so you know which sections of the manual apply to each product type.

Master "Master" relay panels offer the full suite of capabilities of the Z-Max products including

all networking functionality and modular relays. Relay panel sizes range from as few as 8 relays per panel up to 96 relays per panel.

Basic The "Basic" relay panel is very similar to the Master except the feature set has been

reduced. It’s designed to be used in stand alone installations where only basic capabilities are desired.

Remote "Remote" relay panels are designed for remote installation and mounting where relay

switching from 4 to 48 load circuits is desired, but control intelligence, programming, and interface to other systems is required at a central location. Exactly (1) Master panel must exist on the same network as the remote relay cabinets, and the remote panels can control relays, accept discreet inputs, and accept an emergency input.

EZ-Max Panels designated as "EZ-Max" panels are very similar to a "Basic" relay panel except

that in addition to the feature set being reduced, the hardware as also undergone change to make it a more economical and easy to install package. For example, on an EZ-Max panel, the relays are not modular. You still get the superior switching technology of the Z-Max panels, just in a non-modular format.

Product Specifications & Capabilities Chart

The table below gives a generalized overview of the specifications and features of a ZMax Relay Cabinet. In the table, the following abbreviations are used:

Y = Yes N = No O = Optional * = An asterick in any column indicates that there is support for this feature, however,

there are conditions with which you should be aware. Consult the specific sections of the manual dealing with this feature for additional information and requirements.

Part I - Front Panel Operation & Visual Status

Your relay panel has many unique operational features which can be accessed directly from the front panel. Relay control, relay overrides, and basic status information are all available features. Secondly, both internal and external to your relay panel are several "status" indicators which will assist you in determining how your panel is operating and whether or not it is operating properly. This part of your guide addresses both of these topics.

Set the Astronomical Time Clock

The Z-MAX Scheduler allows you to turn lights on or off in relation to sunrise and sunset. For example, yard lights can be set to turn on an hour before sunset, and turn off an hour after sunrise, according to the time of year.

The astronomical time clock (Astro Time) calculates the time of sunrise and sunset for every week of the year depending on the location of the installation. To use Astro Time you must know the approximate latitude (in degrees) (See Appendix A for various cities in North America) of the controller’s location, as well as the present time of sunrise and sunset (often found in the daily newspaper). Visit www.srrb.noaa.gov/

highlights/sunrise/sunrise.html for a complete listing of Latitude, Longitude, Sunrise

and Sunset information.

Visual Status and Operational Feedback System Status LED’s

Visual Status and Operational Feedback

What are all these blinking lights?

Your Z-MAX relay cabinet has a variety of feedback mechanisms which are designed to alert you as to how your panel is operating and the current status of each relay. The main feedback mechanism, the LCD display is covered at the beginning of the “User Interface” chapter. The feedback mechanisms we’re discussing here cover all of the red, amber, or green LED’s inside the panel.

The LED’s inside the panel can be broken up into two categories, ‘System Status’ and ‘Relay Status’ LED’s.

System Status LED’s

System Status LED’s are designed to tell you at a quick glance the operational characteristics of your system. For example, whether or not your system is receiving data on one of the communication lines! This will assist you and our technical support team should any diagnostics be necessary.

Use the following table to determine the possible colors and patterns of the LED’s which represent their status.

Generally, the following conventions apply:

• Green – All Systems Go! No alerts detected.

• Flashing Green – All Systems Go! Receiving or transmitting data.

• Solid Red – Alert Condition. Specific alert depends on LED

• Slow Flashing Red – Systems operating Normally, usually a heartbeat

• Quick Flashing Red – Alert Condition or Override Condition, specific alert depends

on LED.

The specific functions and states of each LED are listed below:

Touch-Tone Telephone Interface

Configuration of your touch-tone telephone interfaces requires carefully setting up security/passcodes as well as several configuration items relating to the modem itself. These processes are covered in detail in the Advanced Configuration Guide. This chapter outlines the user operation of the interface.

The touch-tone interface, TIM, allows for control of groups at one of many security levels over the telephone. Regardless of the "Mode" of operation which is applicable, the following keys and indications are valid

• # key is must be pressed at the conclusion of every entry

• * starts over the entire process as if you just called into the panel

• *# immediately signals the panel to terminate the phone call. (Note that at any

time you may hang up your phone and the communication will be terminated)

• After every command, a series of beeps will indicate that the command was completed

• 1, 2, or 3 short high beeps usually indicate successful execution

• 1 quick high beep followed by a long low beep indicates command failure or

incorrect data entry

• 1 long low warbling beep indicates that the panel is about to disconnect the call.

Using the TIM requires the following steps:

Step 1: Call your relay panel, wait for it to answer, and wait for (3) short beeps Step 2: Enter your password followed by the pound (#) key Step 3: Hear (2) short beeps indicating command or user mode, or (1) short

beep indicating admin mode

Step 4: One of the three modes below are entered

Command Mode

If your password is associated with Command mode, upon successful password entry the command is executed and the panel hangs up. All functionality of command mode passwords are completely configured by the system administrator.

User Mode

In user mode, you have complete control over a single "Group" of relays as defined by the panel administrator.

emember that each relay can belong to one or

more Groups; groups are global meaning that any network panel which receives a group command will activate it’s relays assigned to those groups. This allows a simple way of total system control, from the touch tone interface.

Z-Max Advanced Programming & Systems Design Guide rac00-sdg Revision A:11/2005 Page 17

Page 28

After the two short beeps are heard (step 3 above), any of the following commands can be entered, followed by the pound (#) key:

• 0 - Turn group off at normal priority, all other actions can override

• 1 - Turn group on at normal priority, all other actions can override

• 2 - Turn group on at high priority, most other actions can not override

• 3 - Turn group On at normal priority only for a defined period of time (defined by

your administrator)

• 7 - Relinquish control of the group to all other actions and controlling sources

• 8 - Turn group off at high priority, most other actions can not override

• 9 - Turns group Blink Warn Off at normal priority

• 10 - Cancels blink warn for this group at normal priority

Administrator Mode

In administrator mode, you have complete control over all "Groups" of relays as defined by the panel administrator. You know that you’re in administrator mode because after entering your password, you hear 1 beep instead of two.

In administrator mode, the complete process is as follows:

Step 1: Call your relay panel, wait for it to answer, and wait for (3) short beeps Step 2: Enter your password followed by the pound (#) key Step 3: Hear (1) short beep indicating admin mode Step 4: Enter one of the following commands, followed by the pound (#) key:

• 0 - Turn group off at normal priority, all other actions can override

• 1 - Turn group on at normal priority, all other actions can override

• 2 - Turn group on at high priority, most other actions can not override

• 3 - Turn group On at normal priority only for a defined period of time

(defined by your administrator)

• 7 - Relinquish control of the group to all other actions and controlling sources

• 8 - Turn group off at high priority, most other actions can not override

• 9 - Turns group Blink Warn Off at normal priority

• 10 - Cancels blink warn for this group at normal priority

Step 5: Hear (2) short beeps indicating that the command is valid Step 6: Enter a group number followed by the pound (#) key Step 7: Hear (2) short beeps indicating that the command was executed Step 8: Repeat steps 4, 5, 6, & 7 or hand up to terminate the call.

Part II - Simple Mode Programming

Your relay cabinets contain two modes of programming: simple, and advanced. Simple mode is designed to give you a very simple, question & answer means of programming your relay panel but only gives you access to a limted feature set of your product. Advanced mode programming in the next part gives you access to the full capabilities of your relay product.

Configuration the Simple Way Panel Configuration in Simple Mode

Configuration the Simple Way

Your relay panel has two modes of configuration, Simple Mode and Advanced Mode. The default configuration mode is called Simple Mode and is designed to be a less complex streamlined mode for configuring and operating your relay panel. Simple mode differs from advanced mode in that many of the advanced features and configuration items have been removed from the menu structures. Additionally, all configuration is more question and answer based allowing for more self-navigation without dependence on this manual.

Changing Configuration from either simple mode to advanced mode, or from advanced mode to simple mode will never result in loss of configuration information. This can be used to your and the end-users advantage by first making all required configuration settings, then changing the panel configuration mode to Simple Mode. This will allow the user to make basic changes, but prevent them from making potentially dangerous configuration changes.

The following configurations and configuration changes can be performed when the panel is in simple mode:

• Setup the Time Clock Date, Time, and Astronomical Time Clock Settings

• Add & Change Scheduled Events

• Configure Inputs, Devices connected to inputs, and relays assigned to inputs

• Change Configuration Mode

All other configuration options must be defined in Advanced Configuration Mode.

Panel Configuration in Simple Mode

Configuration of your relay panel by simple mode is really a simple process. (pun intended) The steps are as follows:

Step 1: Install your cabinet and terminate all power and control wiring Step 2: Configure your inputs Step 3: Configure any scheduled events

These three steps of course will vary greatly depending upon your particular installation so generalized instructions are provided here to help you learn what some of the functionality is. The next few pages will show you how to configure a low voltage switch, a photocell, and then an occupancy sensor. That will cover step 2. Step 1 has already been covered in prior chapters. Step 3 illustrates the methods used to create and schedule events, or rather relays turning on or off at a specific time.

Low Voltage Switch Inputs

Configuration of this type of input is used when you have some type of switch or other triggering device connected to one of the inputs from which you desire to turn on or off relays. Several different behaviors are available for configuring of this type of input.

CONFIG INPUTS

LV SWITCH

Step 1: From the main menu, navigate to Configuration, Config Inputs, then LV

Switch.

Remember that when navigating menus, pressing Select always selects the current menu, and pressing Cancel always navigates to the previous menu.

Step 2: Enter the input number of the switch input you wish to configure. This is

determined by looking at the terminal on your cabinet to which the switch is connected. After entering the number, press the Select key

Step 3: The relay panel now asks for a behavior:

Z-Max Advanced Programming & Systems Design Guide rac00-sdg Revision A:11/2005 Page 23

ENTER LV SWITCH

INPUT NUMBER:002

SELECT BEHAVIOR

MOMENTARY

Your selection for the behavior of your switch will be determined by the type of switch you have and how you desire it to operate. The available behaviors are as follows:

• Momentary - The first press turns on the assigned relays, the second press turns off the assigned relays

Page 34

• Momentary Timed - Upon the first press, turn on the assigned relays for the specified amount of time. When the time elapses, control of the relays is relinquished to other controls (which generally results in the relays turning off.) If the switch is pressed a second time, the timer is reset.

To specify the amount of time used for timed inputs, change configuration mode to Advanced, go to System Setting under the configuration menu, then Global Defaults and change the Tswit value. Valid settings are 1-254 minuntes

• Maintained - Maintained inputs turn On the relays while the switch is pressed, then turn off the relays when the switch is released

• Preset Off - Turns off all relays in the current preset group.

• Preset On - Turns on all relays in the defined preset group.

• Momentary On/Off - Momentary On/Off is used with switch inputs

connected to switches that have separate on & off outputs and in coordination with our switch input adapter cards or switch input adapter kits. These kits provide both the on and off signal on the same switch leg AND require the switch input setting to be defined as Momentary On/Off

Step 4: This optional step only applies when using the Preset On/Off Types

ASSOCIATE PRESET

NEW NUMBER: NO

• Z-MAX panels use associate preset groups to define the group of buttons that are all a part of the preset group. All inputs that are part of the same group number work together and only one of the inputs can be active at any one point in time.

• If you have already defined a number for the group to which this input belongs, select NO at this prompt and select the number.

• If you have not defined an associate preset group number or need to create a new group, select YES at this prompt and then enter the new number.

Step 5: Relay assignment - There are two methods which can be used to assign

relays to switch inputs, "Quick" and "Menu."

• Quick method allows you to assign relays to this input by pressing the override button adjacent to the relay. Note that only the LED indicates status, relay state does not change.

relay assignment method involves

access to the override buttons which requires opening your relay panel, this programming method is only appropriate for both authorized and trained personnel as dangerous voltages are present inside your relay cabinet.

Use

select your relay assignment method:

ASSIGN RELAYS

MODE: QUICK

Step 6: If Quick Assignment Mode was selected, use the override buttons

adjacent to each relay to set whether that relay should be on or off. In this programming mode, the relay will not change state, however, the LED adjacent to each relay will light on or off matching the state of the real as assigned to the input.

Step 7: If Menu Assignment Mode is selected, the relays which should be

controlled by this input can be selected by using the following keys

• Use to increase or decrease the relay number

•

• Use to select any of the possible three actions for this relay

•ON - turns this relay on when the switch is pressed

•OFF - turns this relay off when this switch is pressed

•IGNORE - instructs the relay panel to not change the state of this

relay when the switch is pressed

Step 8: Press Save/Select to save your settings and complete

configuration of this input.

Photocell Configuration

Photocells are used with relay panels to control the switching on and off of relays relative to the amount of light received by the relay panel. Two types of photocells are supported by your relay panel, called switching and 0-10V. Switching photocells interact with your relay panel just like a switch. They output a low voltage signal to the relay panel when the amount of light received by the photocell crosses a pre-set threshold. 0-10V photocells output 0-10V, proportional to the amount of light received. Switching photocells must be configured to trip at a specific level which is also appropriate for your project. 0-10V photocells must be optimized for the range of lighting levels to which the photocell is intended.

Step 2: Enter the Input Number. Usually a photocell is connected to the PhotoCell

input and the screen would read as follows

ENTER PHOTOCELL

INPUT NUMBER:PC

Step 3: Select Photocell Behavior

SELECT BEHAVIOR

FORCE OFF

• Force Off - The photocell will be turning off voltage, usually indicating that the photocell is receiving more light. The trigger to turn on the relays must be from another source, like the scheduler or a switch. This application is useful for parking lot lighting which is turned on by the scheduler and off during the day.

• Force On/Off - The photocell will be turning on and off relays and no other source (at the current or lower priority level) will be able to alter this condition. This behavior is appropriate for applications where the photocell will be the only controlling source for the relays.

• Force On - The photocell will only be turning on lights and some other control will turn off the lights. This behavior is appropriate when lights must be on when it’s dark, but only turned off by a switch, building sweep, scheduler, switch, or other control device.

Step 4: Enter the delay time. This is the time between when the photocell

triggers the action and the action actually occurs. Longer delay times are

Occupancy Sensor Configuration

Occupancy sensors are devices which sense when a person enters a particular room or area. Leviton’s Occupancy Sensor’s are designed for a variety of applications, using a variety of technologies which can be applied to your specific need. The Occupancy sensors which this relay panel is designed to work with are those which are powered by +24Vdc and provide a ~+24Vdc output when the covered area is occupied.

These instructions assume that your Occupancy Sensor is connected to the OCC input. If your Occupancy Sensor is connected to one of the other inputs, configuration will be similar.

Step 1: Using the menu navigation buttons, navigate the menus to Configuration,

Config Inputs, then to Occ Sensor, and press Select/Save

Step 4: Enter the Behavior of the occupancy sensor

SELECT BEHAVIOR

MANUAL ON

The choices for behavior are as follows:

• Manual On - The occupancy sensor will turn off the assigned relays when the occupancy sensor indicates an occupied state. When the room become occupied, the relays will not be automatically turned on, instead, the user will have to manually turn on the lights from a wall switch or other input.

• Auto On - In this mode, the Occupancy Sensor will turn the assigned relays both on and off based on either an occupied or unoccupied stated indicated by the occupancy sensor

Step 5: If you desire a blink warn to be issued prior to turn turning off the lights,

the response to this question should be Yes. If not, the response should be No

ENTER BLINK WARN

ENABLED: YES

A Blink Warn is not only advisable to keep people from suddenly being left in the dark but is also required by some authorities having jurisdiction. When blink warn is enabled, the lights will "blink" prior to actually being turned off. After the blink, the user can press the on button to cancel the off, otherwise, the lights will automatically turn off.

Step 6: Enter the time delay between when the occupancy sensor indicates an

unoccupied state and the relays actually turn off

• IGNORE - instructs the relay panel to not change the state of this relay when the trigger point is crossed

Step 8: Press Save/Select to save your settings and complete configuration of

this input.

Quick Schedule

The quick schedule menus are used to create a new event, change the time of an existing event, and delete an event. An event is an action which occurs at a time. For example, Relays 1, 2, & 4 turn ON at 7:30am is an example of an event which might be schedule in a venue where relays 1, 2, & 4 are connected to lobby lights, when doors open at 8:00am.

In technical Z-MAX lingo, an "Action" is what actually occurs. In the case of the above example, the action is relays 1, 2, & 4 turning on. An "Event" is one scheduled occurrence of an action. In quick schedule programming, both actions and events are rolled into one seamless programming process.

To create a scheduled event using the quick scheduler:

Advanced configuration mode is designed to allow front panel access, operation, and programming of your relay panel, supporting the full capabilities of the product. This section of this user’s guide documents the advanced mode configuration menu structures. Both advanced mode and this documentation assumes that you have familiarity with the relay panel, relay applications, and a good grasp of the Z-Max user interface. As such, many of the discussed procedures leave out irrelevant information and proceed directly to the "meat" of the topic.

If you do not yet have familiarity with the Z-Max relay cabinets and their user interface, please first review the features and procedures found in the previous part of this manual addressing Simple Mode Configuration.

CONFIGURATION

The global default menus give you access to many configuration parameters and options which "globally" affect your relay panel.

Although these settings can help you quickly make changes to your panel, please make sure that you understand and expect the results. For example, changing the relay type in global defaults, will automatically and without warning change the relay type for every relay controlled by this cabinet. As such, any previous changing of relay type at the relay level will be lost.

Changing the # of Local Relays

Sets the number of local relays in the cabinet. Usually this is set to the maximum number of relays which can be installed in your relay cabinet. For example, if you have an (8) relay cabinet, this setting would be 8. If you have a 24 relay cabinet it would be 24.

The starting relay number for remote relays is dependant upon this setting. The first remote relay is addressed by the relay number indicated by adding 1 to the number of local relays. For example, if you have 24 local relays, the first remote relay is 25.

Remote Relays

This setting determines the number of remote relays addressed by this relay cabinet when implementing a Master/Remote network. This should be set to the total number of relays in all remote cabinets.

For example, if you have (1) 24 remote relay cabinet and (2) 4 remote relay cabinets, the setting for this entry will be 24+4+4=32 indicating that 32 remote relays will be controlled by this cabinet.

The relay numbers for remote relays start at 1+the number of local relays. So if you have 24 local relays, then in this scenario the local relays are 1-24, remote relays 25-

56.

Sequence Delay Time

Use this feature to change the delay time between each relay when turning on a group of relays. The system allows you to set the value to a 0.0 delay or up to a 25.0 seconds delay for architectural installations where power surges are a concern.

In most applications, a short sequence delay time is appropriate. For example, if the sequence delay time is set to 0.5 seconds and the relay cabinet is told to turn on relays 1-4, relay 1 will turn on immediately when the command is executed. Relay 2 will turn on 1/2 second later, relay 3 1 second later, and relay 4 at 1.5 seconds.

Level Cut-In Value

Use this feature to change the threshold value that triggers when the relays turn on when responding to a control input other than a switch. This is used when the controls are set up for dimming as well as relays, like a D8000, D4200 or DMX control device.

Blink Warn Parameters

The blink warn feature is used to issue a warning just before the relay cabinet turns off the lights. The warning is issued in the form of a "blink" of the lights. Hence the term "Blink Warn". The blink warn feature has several configurable parameters to determine the actions of your cabinet.

•

BW Tovrd

cancels a blink warn for their particular zone. The setting defaults to 120 minutes.

• BW lights turn off (go black.) The setting defaults to 5 minutes.

•

BW Twto

An example to of the blink warn features is as follows:

• Assume that an over-zealous worker is working in their office late on a Saturday afternoon. The lights in the facility are scheduled to be turned off at 5:00pm.

• At 5:00pm, the event triggers to turn off all of the lights. As such, all relays which are enabled for blink warn, turn off for 1/2 second ( immediately turn back on.

• Since the worker isn’t done yet for the day and noticing both blink warn and the fact that his wall switch is flashing, the blink warn for their office can be delayed for the Tovrd value, 2 hours in this instance, by pressing their wall switch.

• Now, at 5:05pm, ( turned off except for the worker’s office.

• 120 minutes later ( time only for David’s office. Again, if the worker is still in his office, he has 5 minutes to delay the blink warn or the lights will turn off.

Time Master settings

When using Luma-Net and other future protocols in development by Leviton, you can specify the time master network settings for this panel. A time master is a cabinet which acts as the "Master" time clock for the network. All other devices on the network will automatically set their time from the Time Master. This configuration option has the following settings:

•

Auto

- the relay cabinet upon power up will see if a Time Master panel already exists on the network. If it does, it will always set it’s time from that panel. If not, control as time master is negotiated between panels

•

- upon power-up, this panel will elect itself as the time master for the network. Only one panel on the network should be set to "ON". Although this panel will never relinquish being the master, it’s clock can be set by any other panel.

Power On Restore

The power on restore feature when enabled tells the panel to restore the relays to the state they were in prior to any loss of power, when power is restored.

•

- indicates that relay state should be restored upon power up AND that the current state of the relays should be stored to non-volatile memory every two minutes.

•

- Indicates that the state of the relay should always be "Off" upon power up and

that the current state will not be saved to memory.

The relay state is stored to memory only a few seconds after every relay change so the most recent relay state is always what should be restored. That means that when power returns, the restored state of the relay will be the state the relay was in 2 minutes prior to the time of power failure.

To assign relays to groups

Groups are used when you want multiple relays to be controlled collectively from a single button press, occupancy sensor, action,...etc. They are collections of relays which can be all located in a single cabinet or spread throughout multiple cabinets on an entire network. The groups are activated, on/off, by group on/off commands from a controlling source.

A relay can belong to a maximum of 32 different groups, numbered 1-32, and each group is also numbered, 1-65,535. Currently Z-Max only allows assignment of group numbers 1-9,999. By default, each of the (32) group associations are set to "None".

Group commands are always broadcast across all data networks. Therefore, group assignments are not in turn general to the entire network

To make relay 1 part of groups 14 & 57, follow the procedure below:

Turning feedback On or Off:

The feedback setting is used to toggle Luma-Net feedback on or off. When Luma-Net feedback is on for a relay, it means that when a level request is issued from that network, the relay with feedback "on" for that channel will respond.

en more than one relay is assigned to the

same Luma-Net channel, only one of them should have feedback turned on.

To alter if a relay will respond to a blink warn message.

Sometimes, it is necessary to override the relay so it will not respond to a blink warn command. This is especially true of HID fixtures. This feature can be used to turn off or on blink warn for a particular relay. When blink warn is turned off for a relay, the relay will not blink before turning off.

Cabinet Luma-Net Address

Each Luma-Net device requires it’s own unique address on the Luma-Net network to which it is connected. Valid addresses for Luma-Net devices are between 1 & 127. If your cabinet is only going to respond to Luma-Net commands and will never have to issue a command, the cabinet can operate in Passive mode. In passive mode, the cabinet does not need an address as it passively listens and processes commands from the network. Anytime your cabinet must issue a command, anytime you are using groups, or anytime you are using digital switches, your cabinet requires a dedicated system address or system ID.

The valid values for this setting are as follows:

•

PASS

- Indicates the cabinet is in passive mode

•

Master Feedback

Feedback is the ability of a relay to respond to a status request. For example, a network device might ask for the on/off status of relay #13. If Master Feedback is on AND relay #13 is instructed to respond to feedback messages, the relay cabinet will respond with the current on/off state of the relay. Likewise, if Master Feedback is OFF and regardless of the feedback setting in the relay menu, the cabinet will not respond to any request for status.

Turning Relays On/Off from the front panel and front panel overrides

Pressing the Relay Button enters relay control mode. When in this mode, the following keys can be used

• Use to adjust the relay number (number keys can also be used, but 2 digits are always required)

• Use to adjust the relay state, UP for ON, DOWN for off.

• Pressing (up arrow twice) puts the relay into an override ON state.

When in this state, no other relay panel function can alter the state of this relay other than the front panel. (Only one arrow press is required if relay is already on.)

• Pressing (down arrow twice) puts the relay into an override OFF state. When in this state, no other relay panel function can alter the state of this relay other than the front panel. (Only one arrow press is required if relay is already on.)

• Pressing Select when in either override on or off mode will allow you to enter a time and then activate Timed Override mode by pressing Select again. A timed override forces the relay into the ON (or off) state for the elapsed period of time. Once the time expires, the relay returns to the function indicated by other controlling devices, or off if none are indicated.

Individual Relay Override Switches

Figure 10: Location of Individual Relay Override Switches in the 8 Cabinet

These switches have one primary use with two modes of operation:

Z-Max Advanced Programming & Systems Design Guide rac00-sdg Revision A:11/2005 Page 61

Page 72

• Local override of individual relay without having to go through the Control Module

• Temporary - Any control input with a higher priority can change its state

• Locked Out - Event scheduler and control inputs, regardless of Priority will not

be able to alter its state

To temporarily change a relays state using its override Switch:

Step 1: Open the cabinet door using the supplied key Step 2: Press the switch next to the relay you wish to change

The relay will audibly click when it changes states (ON to OFF and vice versa)

There is a green LED above each relay override switch. If the LED is on, the relay is ON. If the LED is OFF, the relay is OFF.

Step 3: Press the switch again to turn the relay on and off.

Pressing the individual relay override switch will always clear higher priority overrides for the relay. This allows manual control of the relay even when Emergency or Master Override is active

To lock out a relay using its override switch:

Step 1: Open the cabinet door using the supplied key Step 2: Get the relay to the state that you want to Lock it in. For example, if you

wish to lock the relay in the On state and it is Off, press the switch one time to toggle the relay to the On state.

Step 3: Press and hold the Switch for approximately 5 seconds until the LED

beneath the switch begins to blink.

The relay will audibly click when it changes states (ON to OFF and vice versa)

There is a green LED above each relay override switch. If the LED is mostly on when it blinks, the relay is locked ON. If the LED is mostly OFF when it blinks, the relay is locked OFF.

To unlock a relay using its override switch:

Step 1: Open the cabinet door using the supplied key Step 2: Press and release the switch of the relay that is locked out

The relay will change its state from On to Off or vice versa

Priorities

MAIN MENU SELECT

CONFIGURATION

There are many control signals and events all coming into the relay cabinet at the same time. Priority levels are used to distinguish which event actually occurs when competing commands are sent.

For example, consider the situation where you want the scheduler to turn the lights on in a lobby at 7:30am and off at 5:30pm so that the lights are on during business hours. Also consider for a moment that there is a switch in the lobby which can be used to turn on/off the lobby lights. Now, consider that the scheduler turns the lights on at 7:30am but Joe the janitor comes in and presses the switch to turn off the lights at 7:45am. The lights could remain off all day long! To resolve this problem, priorities can be used.

Your Z-MAX relay cabinet has (16) priority levels which can be assigned to control signals and events. 1 is considered to be the highest priority, 16 is considered to be the lowest priority.

Your Z-MAX relay panel presents a warning when you change the

priority level. This warning is present because simply changing the priority level of a control signal can drastically change how your panel operates. Make sure you understand what you’re doing and have a good reason for doing it. If not….you probably should leave them alone.

CONFIGURATION SYSTEM SETUP

SYSTEM SETUP

PRIORITIES

Each relay has a defined state at each priority level:

•

- indicates that the relay should be on at the specified priority level and any

lower priority commands should be ignored

•

OFF -

indicates that the relay should be off at the specified priority level and any

lower priority commands should be ignored

•

RELINQUISH

a lower priority level

When a relay determines what state it should be in, it steps through each priority level and looks for any controlling commands. When it finds one it executes it. If the command is relinquish, it proceeds to the next priority level. If it steps through all 16 priority levels and finds no on or off commands, then the relay is turned off.

When a signal or event is executed at a priority level, no lower priorities will have any effect on that relay until control at the higher priority level is relinquished. The control signal or event will continue to be updated at the lower priority, it just will have no effect on the relay.

- indicates that control at the specified priority level is relinquished to

DMX can be somewhat of an exception to the priority rules in that it has a special configuration option called “Force”. When DMX is in “Force” mode, DMX will automatically take control over all other control signals at the same priority level anytime a DMX signal is present.

The factory default for priority levels is as follows:

Default Priorities should only be changed with full and complete understanding of the implications of your change and the priority system. Incorrect settings can cause relays to function incorrectly. In the event that a high-priority actions is required, Leviton recommends always using actions to which any execution priority level can be assigned.

Switch/Discrete Inputs

MAIN MENU SELECT

CONFIGURATION

The inputs section of the configuration menus allows you to configure all of the local and remote switch inputs to your relay cabinet. Configuring any switch input is a twostep process:

Step 1: Define the type of switch input Step 2: Assign actions and behaviors to that input

The define types menu is where you define the type of device or function of the input, and the assign actions menu is where you define what happens when an input signal (or lack thereof) is received at the particular input.

The system accepts the following switch Input types:

• Low Voltage Switches

• Momentary

• Preset ON

• Preset OFF

• Maintained

• Momentary Timed

• Momentary On/Off

• Digital Switches

• Occupancy Sensors

• Photocells

• Contact Closure Inputs

Switch Numbering

There are a maximum of 240 definable switch inputs in the programming structure. These inputs are allocated first to any local inputs, second to any remote inputs from master/remote connected panels, and lastly to network switches.

The first available input for a digital switch can be calculated as 1+[number of local relays]+[number of remote relays]. For example, if in the global defaults you had defined 24 local relays and 48 remote relays, then your relay number would be as follows:

• 1-24 local inputs

Define Switch Types

The system programming is defaulted for all input types to be set up as Switches and their behavior as Active High. If you do not have any other type of input or behavior type, then you can skip this section.

To define the type of switch input

Step 1: Once "Define Types" has been selected from the menus, press or

enter a number from the keypad until you get to the desired input number or type in the three digit number from the keypad.

Step 2: Press Select/Save Step 3: Press until you reach the desired switch type. The following are the

choices:

• SWT = Switch

• PHO = Photocell

• OCC = Occupancy Sensor

• CC = Contact Closure

• --- = nothing connected

Step 4: Press . once to position the cursor in the next field Step 5: Press the or to toggle the input behavior field to the desired

value. See the following list for the available behavior types:

• SWT = Switch

• Act HIGH - Active High (All Leviton Low Voltage Switches and Z-MAX

Digital Switches)

• Act LOW - Active Low

• PHO = Photocell

• Fc:1-999

• OCC = Occupancy Sensor

• Act HIGH - Active High

• Act LOW - Active Low

• CC = Contact Closure

• Act HIGH - Active High

• Act LOW - Active Low

Assign Actions to Inputs

Once you have defined the Switch type, you must associate an action to that switch. An action consists of two parts, a behavior which dictates how the switch input interacts with the relay cabinet, and second, you must assign relays and/or groups to reach to the input.

When assigning actions, a different menu structure is employed for each of the following previously defined input types:

• Switch Inputs

• Photocells

• Occupancy Inputs

• Contact Closures

The general procedure for assigning actions to inputs is as follows:

Switch Inputs

There are six behaviors that can be assigned to a switch input:

• Momentary

• Maintained

• Preset On

• Preset Off

Z-Max Advanced Programming & Systems Design Guide rac00-sdg Revision A:11/2005 Page 73

Page 84

• Momentary Timed

• Momentary On/Off

Momentary

: This behavior assigns a toggle (push On/push Off) function to the input. Only active states are recognized. Upon a new active state, the input will either turn on or turn off the relays assigned based on their current state.

Momentary Timed

: this behavior will allow you to turn "on" the assigned relays for an

amount of time specified in the global defaults Tswit setting

Momentary On/Off

: This unique input type is used with any momentary on/off (2 pole) center off switch with or without LED feedback. When using this switch input behavior, the input expects to receive approximately +24vdc at the switch input to signal an "ON" state and approximately +12vdc at the switch input to signal an "OFF" state. For this input type, the use of rac00-2sb or rac00-2sc switch input adapters are required, or, the use of an LV240-00W entrance station.

Maintained

: Under this behavior, the assigned relays will be on whenever the input detects an active (on) state. The assigned relays will be off whenever the input detects an inactive (off) state.

Preset On

: Presets can only operate with a momentary switch. The advantage of a preset input is that it is included in a preset association. This allows multiple switch inputs assigned to the same association to interact together, allowing only one to be on at a time.

EXAMPLE

For example, if three inputs are configured as Preset On, with the inputs assigned relays 1, 2 & 3 respectively, only one relay can be on at a time. If Switch 1 is activated, relay 1 turns on. If Switch 2 is then activated, relay 2 turns on and relay 1 turns off along with switch 1 input.

Preset Off:

When a switch input has a Preset Off behavior, it will turn off all relays that are assigned to switches configured as Preset On providing they are in the same preset association.

Remember that Preset On and Preset off have Preset Associations. This allows you to associate switch inputs with different preset associations (groups). Thus you can have several switches that utilize the Preset function but do not affect other switches. A good example of this is a 2 button switch where button 1 is for turning lights on and button 2 is for turning lights off.

Digital Switches

Digital Switches are an extension of low voltage switches in that a digital switch is assigned to a "virtual" discrete input which is then programmed identically to a local

discrete input. The only difference is the way they are wired to the system and how they are networked over Luma-Net. Set up is very similar in philosophy.

For information about inputs which are available for use as a digital switch input, See “Switch Numbering” on page 69.

To set up a digital switch:

Step 1: Press the Menu Button Step 2: Press until you get to the Configuration Screen Step 3: Press Select/Save Step 4: Press until you get to the Discrete Inputs Screen Step 5: Press Select /Save Step 6: Press until you get to the Define Types Screen Step 7: Press Select /Save Step 8: Press until the flashing field reads 49 or greater (this depends on

which switch you are trying to set up)

You can also type in the 3 digit number of the switch. Therefore if

you are trying to set up 49, type 049 from the keypad.

Step 9: Press Select/Save Step 10: The Cursor will jump to the type field and if still at factory default

values, will be flashing SWT as Shown:

Step 18: Press until you get to the desired button Step 19: Press Select/Save

Step 20: Repeat Steps 8 - 19 as necessary for every button on every station you

If th

are programming.

Step 21: Assign actions just as for a local switch.

Occupancy Inputs

The process for setting up Occupancy Sensors as inputs to your Z-Max relay cabinet is identical to low voltage switches except that the type should be defined as OCC.

When assigning actions to occupancy inputs, the following three behaviors can be assigned to the input:

• NORM ON - AUTO OFF: When the occupancy sensor detects movement and goes

active, relays assigned to this input will turn on only if all relays have been off for more than the Re-trigger Delay time (set later). Relays will turn off when the occupancy sensor goes inactive after the Off Delay time (set later). This scenario is used to hold off reactivating the relays by the sensor when one or more lights has been manually turned off to temporarily adjust the lighting levels in the room.

• ALWA ON - AUTO OFF: When the occupancy sensor detects movement and goes

active, relays assigned to this input will turn on. Relays will turn off when the occupancy sensor goes inactive after the Off Delay time (set later).

• MAN ON - AUTO OFF: If the input is set to this behavior, the occupancy sensor has

no effect on the relays when it goes active. Instead, the relays must be turned on via any other means (typically a switch input). When the occupancy switch goes inactive it will turn off the relays. This application is good for when manual control is desired from a switch but you want the lights to turn off when someone forgets to turn them off. This functional operation is required by California Title 24 in most applications.

Additionally, when setting up occupancy inputs, several additional questions are asked:

Blink Warn

Indicates whether or not a blink warn should be issued before turning off the lights associated with this occupancy sensors.

Delay from vacancy until lights off

Allows you to set a delay between when the occupancy sensor indicates that the room has become vacant and the lights turn off.

e occupancy sensor used already has an

internal delay, the off delay time will be added to

the sensor delay. When using sensors with

internal delay, set delay to 0 (default)

Re-trigger Delay

Allows you to set a mandatory delay between when the lights are turned off (by occupancy sensor or other method) and the earliest point at which the lights can be turned on, regardless of occupancy state.

Switch/Discrete Inputs Assign Actions to Inputs

Relay Assignment

Assign relays and groups to this input just as for other input types.

Contact Closures

Contact closures are switch inputs which instead of having relays or groups assigned to them, instead have actions assigned to them. Contact closures have two possible behaviors:

Maintained

: Under this behavior, two actions can be assigned. The first action, Action 1, occurs whenever the input detects an active (on) state. The second action, Action 2, occurs whenever the input detects an inactive (off) state.

Alt Action:

This behavior assigns a toggle function to the input. Only active states are recognized. Upon a new active state, the input will issue Action 1 if Action 2 was issued last or Action 2 if Action 1 was issued last.

Photocells have a variety of uses and applications but most can be broken down into two categories: simple on/off control and the more complex daylight harvesting. Your Z-MAX cabinet is capable of doing both. To connect photocells to your relay cabinet, please see the installation chapter which addresses the installation of a photocell with the cabinet. This section will walk you only through the configuration aspects of photocell operation. Additionally, you may find it helpful to review the sidebar information on this page which addresses both background information on photocell operation and daylight harvesting. Configuration of your Z-MAX cabinet for use with photocells assumes that you’re already comfortable with both topics.

Photocells operate in one of three modes, these modes define the characteristics of how photocell operation interacts with the relay panel. It’s crucial to understand the three modes prior to commencing programming to ensure that the desired result is achieved. The three modes are as follows:

• Relinquish / Force Off

• Force On / Force Off

• Force On / Relinquish

Page 78

Page 89

Switch/Discrete Inputs Assign Actions to Inputs

The modes express what happens to the assigned relays/groups at the "ON" trigger point followed by what happens at the "OFF" trigger point. The On trigger point occurs as the foot candle levels from the photocell drops and the Off trigger point occurs when the foot candle level from the photocell is rising. Another way to think about the modes is that the first part of the mode indicates what action will happen when the "sun" is rising or getting brighter and the second portion of the mode indicates what will occur when the "sun" is setting or getting darker outside.

Mode 1, Relinquish On/ Force Off,

applications where you want to turn relays on manually and off automatically when it gets bright. This mode also allows manual control to turn relays off and on. This is the typical daylight harvesting application. For example, think about a classroom where there is only an on/off switch for use by the occupants. The teacher comes in the morning, when it’s dark outside, and turns on the switch. All of the lights come on. When the sun comes up and natural light fills the space, the photocell would detect lights which would pass the trigger point and then turn off some or all of the lights in the room. When the sun goes down or prolonged cloud cover exists making the room dark again, the photocell would detect the darkness and then turn the associated relays on and then relinquish

control back to the manual switch which if in the on position would turn the lights on. Since up to (16) trigger points for the same photocell

is useful for

Daylight Harvesting

In a daylight harvesting application, the goal is to maintain a consistent lighting level within the space, regardless of the source of light which could be either daylight or dimmable artificial light. If this lighting level can be maintained completely with daylight, no artificial light is necessary. However, if the day lighting is not sufficient to meet the desired level, it can be boosted by the artificial light connected to your relay cabinets

can be programmed, this can be used with multiple zones of relays to allow different levels of ambient light in the room, or rather multizone control.

Mode 2, Force On / Force Off

, is useful for applications where you do not want to to allow manual control of the lights at all. The relays come on when it’s dark, and go off when it’s bright. Think about parking lot lighting, when it’s dark the lights go on, when it’s light the lights go off and you don’t ever want anything else to override it.

Mode 3, Force On / Relinquish OFF

when it gets dark and then allows for manual control when it gets bright. A typical application of this would be when you have a parking lot or step lights and you want the lights to turn on as the sun sets or a large dark cloud rolls in, but you have a switch in the system for manual override purposes.

Configure Photocell Interaction with Relays

Photocells

Photocells are devices which sense the incident light levels, and output a voltage proportional to the dynamic range which the photocell has been preconfigured to support. For example, Leviton's ODC0P00W calibrated photocell senses 0-70fc. When the photocell receives 0fc of incident light, the output voltage will be 0V. Likewise, when the photocell receives 70fc of incident light, the output voltage will be +10VDC. Your relay cabinet converts this 0-10VDC input to a "FC" level, scaling based on the maximum FC level input when you configure the analog input for a photocell.

when the light levels are FALLING (OFF). Then press the .again to advance to the next field.

Step 12: Press Select/Save to add relays and/or groups to trigger for this trigger

point.

As mentioned earlier, each photocell can have up to (16) trigger points and relays or groups of relays which are activated at specified rising (on) and falling (off) levels of the photocell. To configure these trigger points:

Step 1: From the "Discrete Inputs" menu, select

"Assign Actions"

Step 2: Use the to select "Photocell

Levels", then

Step 3: Press the Select/Save Step 4: Use the to select the number of the

enabled, the default action is "YES".

Step 7: Select the photocell operation mode,

•Relinquish On/ Forced Off

•Forced On / Forced Off

•Forced On / Relinquish Off

Step 8: Set the Delay Time, valid range is 0-240 min.

Delay Time is used to prevent rapid changes to

ACTION EDITOR

ADD/EDIT ACTIONS

The action editor is used to manage the actions defined in your relay cabinet. Actions are used to execute commands or create groups of commands which are called by a contact closure input or by the event scheduler.

n order to create any event, an action must firs

be created. The action is "what happens" the

event is "when it happens."

Each action is made up of a list of items. You can have as many action items as desired, up to the system limit of 2000. There are four submenus in the Action Editor

• ADD A NEW ACTION

• EDIT AN ACTION

• DELETE AN ACTION

• EXIT (DONE)
