EC-Light is a complete
LONWORKS lighting control system, designed
to meet the requirements of any commercial or
industrial application. EC-Light allows energy
efficient lighting applications including general
area or accent lighting as well as lighting schemes,
sequences and relay group management.
EC-Light is a networkable lighting system which
interfaces with the LONWORKS network and its
subsystems (such as HVAC), providing an integrated
energy management system.
The EC-Light devices are easily configured using
an EC-Configure LNS based plug-in, with a network
management tool such as Distech Controls’
Lonwatcher.

Mounted
in steel enclosures ready for mounting within
an electrical room, the EC-Light Panels
are available in sizes 8, 16, 32 and 64
relays. The Panels come standard with input
controller, heavy-duty relays, output controllers,
120/277/347 Volt transformer, and movable
protection plate between high and low voltage
sections.
For additional functionality, an
EC-Light-Scheduler
or EC-Light-Display
can be mounted onto the panels.
Each
input controller allows for 8 low-voltage
switches, which share a common low-voltage
wiring run thus eliminating expensive multiple
home runs or 16 dry contacts. Furthermore,
the input controller is compatible with
low-voltage switches, and sensors, such
as occupancy or photocell sensors. The output
controls a selection of two-wire relays,
allowing for 16 outputs per controller.
The HID, two-wire relays offer true feedback
and manual override, are latched and have
a life cycle of 50,000 cycles.
Relays
can be organized into groups allowing the
following parameters to be set for additional
energy efficiency:
- Warning
period through flickering of lights to
announce system will turn off, giving
time for local users to bypass the system
if necessary or to leave the building.
- Maintenance/security
crew bypass of lighting system for a specific
amount of time.
- Hold
time through switch or motion detection,
allowing the user to initiate the system
for a specified time period.
- Time
delay override, allowing a user to override
the lighting system for a specific amount
of time.
The
EC-Light panels are fully configurable using
the EC-Configure LNS based plug-ins, with
a network management tool such as Distech
Controls’ Lonwatcher.

The LONWORKS EC-Light
Scheduler is a device dedicated to storing
and managing the scheduled events required
for your lighting control system, with a
capacity to store up to 16 independent schedules.
Each
schedule includes a template for days of
week with a capacity of up to six events
per day. For added flexibility, there are
four special day templates per schedule
object, for holidays or other exceptional
events in your scheduling. The EC-Light
Scheduler also allows you to configure scene
function and number (pre-set lighting action)
based on time of day or based on relative
time to sunset and sunrise. The integrated
astronomical clock facilitates applications
such as outdoor lighting whereas the real-time
clock provides for accurate timekeeping
with controller applications. Furthermore,
there is a dedicated output network variable
for each of the schedules supported, which
can be bound to any of the other devices
on your network.
The
EC-Light Scheduler is easily configured
using an EC-Configure LNS based plug-in
software, with a network management tool
such as Distech Controls’ Lonwatcher.
The
EC-Light Scheduler can be used as on itself
or mounted within an EC-Light Panel.

The
LONWORKS EC-Light Display is a multi-function
LCD device allowing you to display and interface
with up to 250 network variables and store
and manage up to 16 independent schedules.
The EC-Light Display is the perfect interface
for any sized lighting system, where a PC
front end is not always required or where
a manual interface is desired for a faster
and more convenient access.
The EC-Light Display can be used with the
Distech Controls easyCONTROLS system as
a human-to-machine-interface. However, being
fully interoperable, it can also operate
with any LONWORKS device using SNVTs or
UNVTs.
Each
schedule includes a template for days of
week with a capacity of up to six events
per day. For added flexibility, there are
four special day templates per schedule
object, for holidays or other exceptional
events in your scheduling. The EC-Light

clock provides for accurate timekeeping
with controller applications. Furthermore,
there is a dedicated output network variable
for each of the schedules supported, which
can be bound to any of the other devices
on your network.
The EC-Light Display can be configured through
any LNS based software such as Distech Controls’
Lonwatcher. Furthermore, EC-Configure LNS
based plug-ins are available to configure
the features of the EC-Light Display and
allows grouping of up to 5 points (variables)
per group, with a maximum of 50 groups.
The group and variable names are customizable
with up to 13 and 16 characters respectively.
