Connecting the SwitchesThe CDW12U5 is equipped to take a set of up to five SELV switches which will typically be two way, centre-off, momentary rockers, (e.g. the MK K4900 range). The logical function of a switch can be configured from a wide range of options and its action can be associated with any combination of channels. The switch connection consists of a 3-pole pluggable terminal block comprising a common and two returns from normally open contacts. The LCM is supplied fully populated with five plugs.

MLS InterfaceCard (if fitted)

Note that if the SELV status of any one of the switches is compromised by reason of inadequate insulation or segregation of the cabling, then the SELV status of all other switches AND OF THE SENSORS will also be compromised.

Introduction

The CDW12U5 is an intelligent lighting control module (LCM) or connection box providing connections for up to twelve luminaires, up to five sensors and up to five switch inputs. The unit is designed to simplify installation whilst providing an intelligent managed lighting system, including provision for emergency lighting.

Fixing

The box should be attached to a suitable smooth, flat surface, using the two end-located fixing points. Consideration should be given to the need for access to install and maintain the lighting system when choosing a location for the box.

The box must not be distorted when fixing. If the box is to be mounted on an uneven surface it may be necessary to use packing pieces or self-adhesive stand-off feet.

When the box is to be rod-fixed, the fixing should be substantial enough to withstand the action of plugging and unplugging the connectors.

Electrical Connection

The connections to this equipment should be made only by a suitably qualified person and in accordance with current wiring regulations.

A means of disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed mains wiring to this box in accordance with current wiring regulations.

It is imperative that the MLS Bus be wired in the correct type of cable. Normally it should be 1.5mm² unscreened twisted pair. See Application Note AN4001. Do not connect Mains to the MLS Bus.

The cover of the cable chamber is removed by inserting the tip of a flat bladed screwdriver into the catch recess and exerting light pressure on the handle in an inboard direction while lifting the long outboard edge of the cover.

The cable entries, for 20mm conduit, bushes or glands are semi-pierced in the walls of the cable chamber and can easily be removed from the outside with a 20mm hole saw.

If the cables are not routed right into the box through conduit or trunking, a cable restraining gland must be fitted at the cable entry for strain relief.

Connecting the Luminaires

Separate versions of the CDW12U5 are provided to control DSI, DALI and 1-10V Ballasts. (See Part Numbers list on the back page.)

Note: Ballast types CANNOT BE MIXED on a single CDW12U5

The CDW12U5 is equipped with twelve GST 18/6 sockets for the connection of individual luminaires. These connections are equipped to take Ex-Or's Latching Plug Shells. Alternatively non-latching "Wieland style" plugs with hoods of up to 21mm depth may be fitted.

The luminaire sockets are grouped into six channels, each capable of independent control, as follows:

2 channels each controlling 3 luminaire sockets,

2 channels each controlling 2 luminaire sockets,

2 channels each controlling a single luminaire socket.

The CDW12U5 may be commissioned with configurations which allow two or more of the six channels to act together, in any combination required.

Connecting the Sensors

The following SELV sensors are designed to interface to the CDW12U5:

MLS2500CDR Corner-mount Microwave sensor with photocell, semi-flush mounted. Available surface mounted (SM suffix)

MLS2401CDR 360º Microwave sensor with photocell, flush mounted. Available surface mounted (SM suffix)

MLSM2002CDR Control Module for 360º Mini PIR with photocell used with DHS or DHW mini detector head to form integral luminaire-mounted unit

MLSM2002CDRDHPBW Mini Detector with Control Module & Plasterboard Fixing Kit

MLS3000CDR 360º PIR sensor with photocell (flush or surface mount: F or SM suffix)

MLS3003CDR 360º PIR sensor with photocell with photocell with tilting lens (flush or surface mount: F or SM suffix)

MLS3003CDRMB Mid-Bay (for mounting up 12m high) 360º PIR sensor with photocell with tilting lens (flush or surface mount: F or SM suffix)

MLS3003CDRHB Hi-Bay(for mounting up to 16m high) 360º PIR sensor with photocell with tilting lens (flush or surface mount: F or SM suffix)

All connect to the CDW12U5 by means of an Ethernet-style RJ45 connector terminated patch lead which are available ready-made in 3m, 5m and 10m lengths. Up to five detectors may be connected to a CDW12U5 box. The maximum allowable cable length from the CDW12U5 to a detector is 100m.

Positioning the Sensors (for Fixing Details see installation instructions)

The MLS2500CDR is designed to project below the ceiling and to sense a volume of space defined by an slanting cone, radiating from its flat face. Typically sited in the corner of a room ceiling diagonally opposite the door, it can then sense presence over the entire room. At the maximum sensitivity setting it can sense an area extending to 20m from its own position.

The MLS2401CDR is designed to be set in the plane of the ceiling and to sense a conical space vertically below such that its diameter at floor level is equal to 2.8 x the detector's height above floor level (typically 7m diameter with a ceiling height of 2.5m).

Note that in the above two cases microwave presence detection is not completely blocked by materials such as plasterboard, wood, and glass, so the possibility of unwanted presence detection through lightly built partitions should be considered when determining sensor positioning and sensitivity settings.

MLS3000CDR & MLS3003CDR should be positioned in the centre of the occupied space. They sense a conical space vertically below with the following aspect ratios:

Avoid mounting next to an AC unit. For details of tilting lens, see installation instructions.

None of the sensor types above should be positioned within 0.25m of a luminaire.

The MLSM2002CDR and its associated DHS or DHW mini detector head can be mounted within the structure of the luminaire with only the small oval face of the sensor showing. See installation instructions for this product. (For remote mounting in plasterboard or suspended ceilings, use MLSM2002CDRDHPBW.)

For connection of the SELV switches, multi-core cable such as 3-core 300/500V 0.75mm² cable to CMA Reference 3183Y or, for LS0H, to CMA Reference 3183B or CAT5 cable for example may be used. The maximum allowable cable length between the switch mechanism and the CDW12U5 switch terminal block is 100m. Three separate singles cables should not be used.

The CDW12U5 can be commissioned using the QuickSet Pro hand-held programmer or from a dedicated programme running on a portable PC. Communication from the PC can be by means of a USB Infrared Transceiver which can signal directly to the CDW12U5's onboard infrared port over a short range or via any attached detector over longer ranges. Alternatively a specialised wired serial link can be established with the CDW12U5 itself. The main parameters available for configuration are shown below. Parameters may be re-programmed any number of times and all settings will be retained in the event of a power loss.

chosen lux level, maintaining respective percentage differences in output).

Ex-Or operates a genuine policy of continuous improvement. You may expect the specification to be regularly enhanced. For the latest technical information please visit www.ex-or.com

Important Additional Notes

1. The CDW12U5 must be earthed as it provides the only path to earth for luminaires connected through it.

2. A dimming control output should be connected only to the control inputs of ballasts, never to another channel's dimming output and never to other types of equipment.

3. Although nominally 12V, the dimming control outputs are not to be treated as SELV, due to their passage through multiple luminaire enclosures and therefore should be treated with the same respect as mains with regard to wiring practice.

4. This equipment switches lights no more frequently than would a responsible human occupant. However, manufacturers of some particular lighting types (e.g. '2D' luminaires) may specify a maximum number of switching cycles and/or a minimum on-time in order to achieve a predicted lamp life. Please check with the manufacturer of the luminaires to ensure that they are compatible with automatic controls in this respect.
