BASIC FUNCTIONS
Page 3 / 77
LiveLink is a light control system that provides for automatic and/or
semi-automatic control for optimal quality and efficiency of illumination. The innovative operation by means of table and smart phone
provides maximum comfort for setup and operation.
LiveLink can be configured to be commensurate with a demand-oriented operation of luminaires. All luminaires and sensors that are
connected must be equipped with a DALI interface (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface). Luminaires, sensors and push-buttons are
connected per room to a LiveLink control device, wherein a room does
not necessarily have to correspond to a physical room.
The system is setup via tablet and operated via tablet or smart phone.
The highest security standards are being complied with in this (also
see chapter “WLAN Security”).
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Work on electric devices may only
be carried out while disconnected from electric power.
• Applicable safety and accident prevention regulations must be
adhered to.
• Regarding installation, please adhere to the corresponding instal-
lation steps from the installation instructions of the luminaire to
be installed.
Connectivity to an existing network structure is possible.
Available for setup are Use Cases which contain a pre-configuration
of luminaire groups and light scenes. Through further configuration,
each room can be individually attuned to the respective needs.
LiveLink is not intended for any application other than the one listed here.
Other applications are considered to be in violation of the intended use.
If LiveLink is used improperly, a safe operation cannot be guaranteed.

INTRODUCTION / SYSTEM OVERVIEWPage 4 / 77
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
LiveLink contains only one hardware component, the LiveLink control
device. Luminaires, sensors, push-buttons and/or push-button couplers are connected to the LiveLink control device via DALI.
In addition, LiveLink includes two software components: The “LiveLink Install” tablet app for the setup of the system by expert personnel, and the “LiveLink Control” tablet and/or smart phone app for the
control of the illumination by the end user.
The tablet and/or smart phone communicate directly with the control
device which is equipped with a WLAN of its own (access point) for this
purpose. But, as an alternative, the LiveLink control device can also
be integrated into the network structure of the building.

The controlling of the lighting can be performed in two ways:
1. The activating of light scenes or switching and dimming of luminaire groups can be carried out with commercial push-buttons via
the DALI installation.
In addition, a push-button can be connected directly to the LiveLink
control device.
2. Control via the “LiveLink Control” app. The app provides for access
to all light scenes and individual control of luminaire groups.

CONTROLLER
The control device – the intelligent command centre.
The core element of the LiveLink control device is a Linux-based
high-performance minicomputer which processes the incoming data
streams and issues control commands to the system components.
For a particularly straight-forward communication with the user,
the control device is equipment with an integrated WLAN module for
controlling via tablet or smart phone.
Compact design – great leeway.
Thanks to its compact dimensions with a construction depth of only
21 millimetres, the control device itself can fit without a problem even
underneath shallowly suspended ceilings. Upon request it is also
available integrated directly into a luminaire (master luminaire).
DALI interface for clever light management.
With the universal DALI interface, DALI-capable luminaires, sensors,
and push-buttons can be integrated, configured, and controlled effortlessly. Each control device can individually address up to 16 luminaire
groups. The maximum number of DALI participants is 64.
Comfortable control via tablet or push-button.
The luminaires and/or groups of luminaires can be controlled either
with a commercial installation push-button or via mobile app on a tablet or smart phone. Additional push-buttons can be connected via an
optional LiveLink DALI push-button coupler that is simply integrated
into the DALI control circuit. The push-button can be configured freely
– this way, “offline” groups of luminaires can be controlled, too, or
light scenarios called up.
Autarkic encryption for more security.
For protection against external access, the control device is equipped
with a WLAN network with autarkic encryption. This way, the system
remains unaffected by cyber attacks against the general computer
network.
Configuration survives power outage.
No reprogramming is required after a power outage; the system configuration is stored in the control device.

PUSH-BUTTON COUPLER
Interface for commercial installation push-buttons
The push-button coupler integrates additional push-buttons into a
LiveLink system. For this, up to 4 commercial installation push-buttons
can be connected to each push-button coupler. The push-button
coupler
passes the signals on to the LiveLink control device via DALI.
The function of the push-buttons is freely programmable during
commissioning.
Fits into the flush device box
The compact dimensions allow for an installation in flush device boxes
with a minimum depth of 60 mm. The push-button cables may have
maximum length of 25 m and must be installed in a separate plasticsheathed cable. The connections at the push-button coupler are not
suited to mains voltage.

INTRODUCTION / SENSORSPage 7 / 77
SENSORS
Any brain needs its sensory organs – and any light management
system its sensors.
Light only then and there where it is desired, and as bright as necessary.
For a light control commensurate with the requirements, the framework conditions must be detected precisely. This task is handled by
the intelligent sensor technology of STEINEL.
Dual HF. Doubly convincing across the board.
The high frequency corridor sensor Dual HF, with its detection area
of 20 x 3 metres, is suitable for long corridors. Decisive for a corridor
sensor is how well radial movements are detected. This refers to the
frontal direction of walking towards the sensor. The STEINEL high
frequency technology masters this perfectly.
Equipment and functions:
• Two integrated HF sensors with dual directional characteristic
for up to 20 metres of radial detection
• Detects equally well from any direction of walking
• Continuously variable, electronic setting
IR Quattro HD. Detects the most minute of movements all the way
into any corner.
The infra-red presence detector IR Quattro HD is ideal for medium to
large offices, conference rooms and meeting rooms as well as classrooms and lecture halls. Its high resolution detection is ideal in case
of sitting activities.
Equipment and functions:
• Highest quality of detection due to 4 pyro sensors
with 4,800 switching zones per 64 m
• Straight-forward planning with square detection area
• Quick setting due to patented mechanical scalability
without loss of quality
• 8 x 8 metres presence detection, 8 x 8 metres radial detections,
and 20 x 20 metres tangential detection
• Suitable for ceiling heights from 2.5 up to 10 metres
• Dual directional characteristic
for targeted detection of hallways and corridors
• Temperature-independent
• Compact design for installation in
luminaire or, optionally, in ceilings
• Upon request, available installed
in a LiveLink master luminaire

• The detection area of the sensor must be taken into consideration (see sensor’s product
data sheet). On the one hand, the sensor should detect areas of work and movement in the
room but, on the other, also the entrance so that the light can be switched on early on. If the
detection area is insufficient, additional sensors must be planned for.
• When using HF and/or radar sensors, it must be taken into consideration that a detection
through thin walls may occur. In addition, the narrow detection area (see product data sheet)
must be taken into consideration.
Light sensor
For the functioning of the daylight control, it is important that the light sensor and/or combined
presence and light sensor be position in a suitable location.
• The light sensor should not be positioned too close to window areas but also not too far into
the depth of the room.
• The sensor should be positioned where it receives an average intensity of daylight, for example
in the middle of the room or near work spaces to which the light control will be calibrated.
• If possible, the light sensor should be positioned above a suitable area. Ideally, this area
should also be utilised as reference area for the calibration of the illuminance. If possible,
this area should feature an average reflectance value. Well suited are, for example desk
surfaces or light-grey path areas.
• It should also be taken into consideration that no items be placed underneath the sensor
that have an influence on the function of the light sensor, e.g. pallets or higher pieces of
furniture.
Sources of interference
Any positioning near the following sources of interference should be avoided:
• Ventilation systems or heat sources, e.g. Heaters or also overhead projectors
• Interference sources of light such as luminaires the indirect light share of which radiates
directly onto the sensor
• Daylight reflections, e.g. by mirrors
• Radio and/or WLAN transmitters at a distance of approx. one metre

INTRODUCTION / WLANPage 11 / 77
WLAN
The setup or control of the LiveLink system via tablet and/or smart
phone app does only work in case of an existing WLAN connection
with the LiveLink control device.
In delivery condition, the LiveLink control device makes available a
WLAN of its own for a direct connection (AdHoc connection). Each

Page 12
INTRODUCTION / WLANPage 12 / 77
UTILISING THE WLAN WITH THE INFRASTRUCTURE
Instead of a direct WLAN connection between the iOS and/or Android
device and the LiveLink control device, an existing infrastructure can
also be utilised subsequent to the initial setup.
WLAN SECURITY
The WLAN access to the LiveLink control device is protected with a
three-tiered security concept.
1. In the first step, a password for the WLAN must be entered
(WPA2 encryption).
2. In the second step, a connection is established via https. This is an
asymmetrical encryption. Data that is transmitted from the app to
the LiveLink system, and vice versa, can not be read in transit.
3. In the third step, a user authentication ensures that only those who
are in possession of the administration and/or user password can
connect to the system and as a result make changes.
For this, the control device can be connected to the existing building
WLAN. The configuration takes place in the administrator menu, see
chapter “Room administration”.
The iOS and/or Android app can then also be used in the building
WLAN. Available to the apps are all LiveLink rooms that are, in turn,
connected to the building WLAM.
In this, the user access is set up restrictively (via a separate app and
separate password) and can merely control existing configuration but
cannot create new or change existing configurations.

BEHAVIOUR OF LIGHT CONTROL
BEHAVIOUR IN DELIVERY CONDITION
If the control device and the luminaires were already installed, but
the light control was not installed, yet, the lighting can be switched
and dimmed nevertheless (touch/dim function). Operation can be
performed via any push-button connected to the control device:
• Short push of button: Turning all luminaires on or off
• Long push of button: Dimming all luminaires
The touch/dim function allows for a quick testing of the installation of
all push-buttons and luminaires.
Caution: Initially, the touch/dim function is only available in

During a configuration process, the function is not
BEHAVIOUR IN OPERATION
The behaviour of the light control depends on how the system is being
switched on:
• Fully automatic presence detection
• Starting a scene with semi-automatic presence detection
• Starting a scene with light control
• Manual switching on of select or all luminaire groups
The decisive factor is, which controls (presence detection, light
control) are contained in the default scene. In the public Use Cases,
the respective most important scene is set as the default scene. In a
lot of cases, this is an automatic scene with fully automatic presence
detection and light control.
Additional information regarding this can be found in the chapter
“What is a Use Case? / Public Use Cases”.
On the following pages, the behaviour of the light control in the different situations is shown.

WHAT IS A USE CASE?
Each LiveLink room is set up based on a Use Case. A Use Case is a
pre-configuration that simplifies the further setup of the room.
A Use Case defines:
• The number of luminaire groups (presentation of a schematic
matching the room type)
• The assignment between sensors and luminaire groups
• Scenes included in the delivery (which, of course, can be supplemented
by scenes you created on your own)
In addition to the placement of luminaire groups, a Use Case also
includes a pre-configuration of the sensors.
A Use Case constitutes the foundation of the room setup. If individualised
Use Cases are needed, these can be created in cooperation with the
TRILUX light planners and loaded for utilisation as “Private Use Cases”.
PUBLIC USE CASES
The public Use Cases are included in the delivery and can be updated in
the Use Case administration (see chapter “Use Case administration”).
The following Use Cases are going to be covered on the next pages.
After completion of the steps for commissioning, the scenes pre-set
in the Use Cases can be adjusted or additional ones added. You can,
for example, change the switch-off delays, switch from fully automatic
to semi-automatic operation, or change the dimming level.
The daylight-dependent control requires an initial calibration with the
help of an illuminometer (see chapter “Administrating scenes”).

search for devices can be started again.
With a tap on the refresh button, a choice between a
new search run and a search for devices is available
• “Start new search run” once again search all
connected DALI participants and addresses all
devices anew. This is necessary if a previous
search run was incomplete or incorrect, for
example if - despite correct installation - not all
devices were found.
Caution: A renewed search run impedes the
functionality of the system. Due to the readdressing of the devices, the assignment needs to
be performed once again.
• “Search for new devices” finds devices that were
installed subsequently. This search run is significantly faster and does not lead to a change of the
existing configuration.
Public / private Use Cases
Initially, the corresponding Use Case collection is
selected by tapping on “Public Use Cases” or
“Private Use Cases”.
Additional information regarding this can be found
in the chapter “Use Case administration”.
A matching Use Case is selected by swiping. A
rough schematic and the designation help in the
correct selection, wherein the schematic does not
have to fit the room situation in all details.

Concluding the luminaire assignment
Little by little, additional luminaires can be
assigned. In this, not all luminaires need to be
assigned and not all luminaire groups need to be
used.
The assignment is performed analogously to the
luminaire assignment. In this, the control lamp of
the sensors serves for identification.
Testing the sensor
Subsequent to a long tap on a positioned sensor,
different functions can be called up.
The function “Testing the sensor” shows detected
movements. This way, the function of the sensor
and its detection range can be tested.
If a Dual HF sensor is utilised, the detection range
can, furthermore, be adjusted here.
With this function, a sensor can be removed from
the position. It is then available again in the bottom
area of the screen for a renewed assignment.
Push-buttons
The push-buttons are set up only in the next
steps. Shown are both the connected push-button
couplers as well as the push-button on the control
device.
Initially, it is selected whether the push-button is
intended to call up a light scene or to switch and
dim a luminaire group.
Depending on the selection all light scenes or all
luminaire groups are listed then, respectively.
After the scene or luminaire group has been stored,
a window signals that LiveLink is now waiting for
the assignment of the push-button.
Now, the respective push-button must be pushed
and held (for up to 5 seconds) until the assignment
is confirmed in the window.
Additional push-button assignments and overwriting of assignments
The push-button assignment is concluded and is
listed in the list.
Now, additional push-button assignments can be
added. But not all push-buttons and light scenes
need to be linked.
If a selected push-button has already been assigned,
a note is being displayed. At this point, there is the
option to overwrite the existing assignment of this
push-button.
Upon conclusion, a user password is specified, and after a summary has been
checked, the room setup is concluded.
Specify user password
Subsequent to the completion of the push-button
assignment, a password for user access is specified.
The password serves for light control by the end
user via the “LiveLink Control” app.
Caution: Memorise the password!
Specify user password
Check the summary and apply optional settings
In this view, the room setup can be checked based
on a summary.
If changes are necessary, it is possible to jump back to
the preceding steps via the navigation in the title bar.
If now changes are necessary, the room setup is
concluded.
Applying option settings
The optional settings steps “Setting up scenes” and
“Rename room” can be carried out at this point.
These steps are described in the following chapters.
In this view, light scenes are administrated and set up.
Typical scenes are included in the Use Case delivery. Additional scenes can
be created completely from scratch or duplicated from existing scenes. Of
course, all configuration options are available in either case.
A light scene consists of dimming settings of the individual luminaire groups
as well as sensor options. Depending on the equipment, the sensors can be
utilised for presence detection and/or constant light control. Different sensor
settings are available for both modes of operation.
New scenes can be created and configured
by tapping the plus symbol.
The dimming value of the individual
groups is specified in percent.
A group is activated by tapping it and
the value can be configured.

In this view, all existing scenes are listed. With a
long tap on a scene, a context menu is opened.
Here, the scene can be deleted, edited, copied, or
specified as the default scene.
Copy scene
With a tap on “Copy”, this scene is copied with all
settings. In the next step, a new name is assigned.
The subsequent steps guide through the setup of
the scene; they are identical to the setup of new
scenes which are described on the following pages.
Edit scene
Tapping on “Edit” starts the editing of the scene. The
subsequent steps are identical to the new setup of
scenes which are described on the following pages.
Set default scene
The default scene is activated automatically every
time the system is switched on.
By tapping “Set default”, this scene is specified as
the default. A dot in front of the scene designation
identifies this characteristic.
In this view, dimming values as well as sensor options can be adjusted now.
Selecting luminaire groups
A luminaire group is activated by tapping on it; an
active luminaire group is shown in red.
Multiple luminaire groups can be activated one after
another in order to configure them at the same time.
Specifying the dimming value
The activated luminaire groups can be dimmed to
the desired level with the control wheel.
By tapping a sensor, the sensor functions are offered.
Depending on the sensor utilised, a presence
detection and/or a constant light control can be
configured.
Subsequent to the selection of a function, the luminaire
groups linked with this function are provided with
a red background. The assignment of the sensor
controls to the luminaire groups takes place in the
luminaire assignment (see chapter “Room setup:
Assignment”).
Setting up the presence detection
Tapping on the sensor symbol (at the control wheel)
activates and/or deactivates the sensor.
The switch-off delay is set with the control wheel.
If the switch-off delay is set to “0” with the control
wheel, the IQ mode is activated.
The IQ mode analyses the utilisation of the room
based on the detected movements.
In IQ mode, the delay period is between 5 and 20
minutes long.
If a lot of movements are registered, the delay period
doubles, if hardly any movements are registered,
the delay period is cut in half.
In case of constant utilisation of the room, this does,
for example, result in the illumination not being
shut off directly when somebody leaves the room
or if somebody is not moving for a while. But if the
room is used only sporadically, the delay period is
automatically reduced to 5 minutes.
Presence detection: Fully automatic
The illumination is switched on and off automatically,
depending on brightness and presence detection.
Presence detection: Semi-automatic
The illumination is only switched off automatically
in this case. The switching on is performed manually.
In case of constant light control, the sensor is
continuously measuring the brightness in the room.
The automatic control adjusted the brightness of the
illumination in order to compensate for the changes
of the exterior light. This way, it ensures a constant
brightness at the highest efficiency.
Subsequent to selecting constant light control, the
desired brightness of the room is set via the control
wheel and stored as reference value.
Constant light control: In the calibration of the
light control, the following notes must be taken
into consideration:
• The calibration of the illuminance should be per-
formed with as little daylight as possible.
• Sources of interference and the casting of shad-
ows on the area to be calibrated must be avoided.
(See chapter “Sensor placement”)
For a uniform and efficient illumination, it may be
sensible to undertake a separate control of luminaires
that are close to the window and that are far from
the window.
If only one sensor is available, an offset setting may
be applied:
Once the constant light control has been activated,
the luminaires that are linked to this function are
marked in colour. By tapping the luminaire groups,
these can be activated and/or deactivated and as
such different target values can be set.
Caution: The target values are set for the condition
maximum incident daylight. If daylight is available
during the setup, the target values can be adjusted
optimally while observing the light distribution. If
no daylight is available, the target values must be
estimated.
Caution: For separate control of luminaires close
to the window and luminaires far from the window,
an individualised control with multiple sensors that
adjust the different luminaire groups separately is
better suited.
In the room administration, all items of the room setup can be called up and
changed after the fact. The operation of this menu is identical to the initial setup
and will not be explained further here.

Caution: All settings will be deleted!
For a hardware reset, the DALI connections are
short-circuited (connecting both DALI lines) and at
the same time the internal push-button on the control
device is held down for 20 seconds. For this, a
push-button should be connected to the designated
interfaced (S) of the LiveLink system.
Tapping on “Advanced sensor settings” provides
access to detailed settings of the sensors.
The functions that can be adjusted are dependent of
the sensor used. Typical default values are already
pre-set; in most cases, these do not need to be
adjusted.
