The EcoSystem solution is designed to fulfill the needs of light
control in the 21st century. Specifically, EcoSystem revolutionizes
energy savings, flexibility, and maintenance in a way that changes
the workplace.
Designed for open office spaces and K-12/university classrooms,
EcoSystem easily integrates environment sensors, such as daylight
and occupancy sensors, with personal controls, such as wallstations
and infrared remotes. With up to 50% of energy use in offices
(60% of energy use in schools) going to lighting, the combined
effect of multiple environment sensors and personal controls
operating together brings unparalleled energy savings to spaces
that previously had none.
Beyond the energy savings, EcoSystem creates a more flexible
workspace. Composed of digital ballasts that have individual
addresses and communicate via control wires, EcoSystem ballasts
can be programmed, instead of wired, to work individually or as
a group. This eliminates the need for an area to be rewired when
changes take place, creating flexibility in a space that adjusts
to the shifting needs of a company.
Finally, EcoSystem reduces lighting system maintenance.
All of the environment sensors and personal controls connect
directly to any ballast, removing interfaces, power packs, and
control devices that on other systems require more parts,
programming and maintenance.

Here are the 4 steps to designing an EcoSystem:
Step Ballast Selection
A Determine number of fixtures that will be connected to EcoSystem.
Note: Do not consider control zones, since they will be programmed rather than wired.
B Classify the type of ballast in each fixture.
Note: Use a Ballast Module Fixture-mounted (BMF) in conjunction with a ballast for dimming
down to 1% or for lamp types where EcoSystem is not yet available. A BMF connected
to any Eco-10
™
or Hi-lume®ballast gives full EcoSystem functionality to that ballast.
Step Sensor/Receiver Selection
Determine what sensors should be connected to EcoSystem.
Note: EcoSystem ballasts are compatible only with EcoSystem daylight sensors.

E1 and E2 wires are polarity insensitive
•
Bus length is limited by the wire gauge
used for E1 and E2 as follows:
Wire Gauge Max Loop Length
#12 AWG (2.05mm) 2,200' (670m)
#14 AWG (1.63mm) 1,400' (426m)
#16 AWG (1.29mm) 900' (274m)
#18 AWG (1.02mm) 550' (167m)
Attention Electricians and Contractors
Regardless of bus wire gauge, ballast and
BMF terminals will hold only one
#16 to #18 AWG solid wire. In most cases
a wire connection to the EcoSystem bus
is required.
Note: Two different color wires are
recommended for the EcoSystem bus.
This prevents accidentally creating
a loop circuit with one wire.

Class 2 Terminal Operation and Bus Supply Programming
Contact Closure Inputs
•
Contact closures on the Bus Supply may be used for integrating a BMS system
or occupancy sensors with relay outputs to an EcoSystem Lighting Network
•
CCI-1 and CCI-2 are programmable to control two different groups of ballasts (one group per CCI).
CCIs force the assigned groups to an “Occupied mode” or “Unoccupied mode”
•
Occupied mode enables the system to operate normally: wallstations, daylight
sensors, occupancy sensors, and infrared transmitters control ballasts as programmed
•
Unoccupied mode turns EcoSystem ballasts and BMFs off. The off setting is overridden by an
occupancy sensor, or the contact closure input. Unoccupied mode is locally overridden if an occupancy
sensor in the space detects motion. Once the local sensor times out, the space becomes unoccupied.
•
Each input may be normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC) (see below for required OPT switch settings)

emergency system integration
In order to ensure that environment sensors and personal controls
do not override each other in a way that disturbs users, a hierarchy
was established for the sensor and control inputs.
Input Priority to EcoSystem Ballast or BMF (highest to lowest)
Priority 1: Emergency Command (typically lights to full on)
Priority 2: Configuration Commands, Status Responses, Addressing Commands,
and Load Shedding (ballast responds to in-progress programming)
Priority 3: Occupancy Sensor Input
Priority 4: Daylight Sensor Input
Priority 5: Personal Control (IR, wallstation), IR Input, Phase Control
The occupancy sensor turns the lights on to
the programmed “occupied” level.
If enough daylight is entering the space, the daylight sensor will reduce the light level to maintain
the designed proper luminance level for the room.
In the middle of the day, the light level is reduced
to the load shed level to reduce energy during
peak usage hours.
If the person uses a wallstation or IR remote they can
adjust the light level below the level set by the daylight
sensor. The person always has the flexibility to set
the lights to any level below the maximum light level
programmed for the room.
After a programmed time-out setting, the occupancy
sensor will set all the lights to the programmed
“unoccupied” level.

Lamp Seasoning
Refer to your lamp company
for lamp seasoning requirements
prior to dimming.
Lamp Mounting for T8
Keep lamp 1/2" ± 1/4" away
from the grounded metal surface.
Having a lamp too close to the
grounded metal will not reduce
lamp life but may cause a visible
difference in brightness along
the length of the lamp.
