  • Components/Safety Considerations

    LitePak: Directions & Applications page 4 lighting controls

    General Description Each LitePak Panel has an 8-output controller and, depending on model, 4, 8, 16 or 24 single-pole HID relays. Or 4, 8 or 12 or 2-pole HID relays. The LitePak Panel has a separate high voltage and low voltage compartment.

    Each controller output can control up to 4 relays. The controller is programmed using the menu buttons and keypad following prompts shown on the LCD display. Programming options include: time scheduling, astronomic, photo control, flick warn, sentry and time-out.

    An optional WPS-5527K Photo Sensor can connect to a LitePak Panel to provide photo control. Each output can then be programmed to have precise light level switching points.

    Remote switch stations can be connected to permit easy user override. Connect switches directly to the relays for individual control or connect to the group switch input to switch groups of relays.

    Safety Considerations Unless the LitePak Panel is powered down, do not touch anything in the high voltage compartment.

    Always power down the LitePak Panel before replacing or terminating wires.

    Do not allow the LitePak Panel to get wet.Relay Output 1Relay Output 2Relay Output 3Relay Output 4Relay Output 5Relay Output 6Relay Output 7Relay Output 8

  • Mounting/Installation

    LitePak: Directions & Applications page 5 lighting controls

    Mounting and Installationrefer to 'External Connections' & 'Internal Connections' on pp. 32-33 for more details.1. Select the location(s) for mounting the LitePak Panel and, if used, the Expansion Panel(s).

    The panel(s) must be mounted indoors in a stationary, non-vibrating, non-corrosive atmosphere and in non-condensing humidity. The ambient temperature must always be within the range of 32°F to 140°F (0°C to 60°C).

    It is best to locate the LitePak Panel in an area that is easily accessible for programming and is relatively close to the voltage breaker.

    The Expansion Panel(s), if used, should be located close enough to the LitePak Panel so that the maximum wire length (refer to table at lower right) will not be exceeded. If any Expansion Panels are used, the total number of relays in all panels should not exceed 24.

    2. Remove the cover(s) to access the four 1/4" mounting holes and attach the panel(s) to the wall. Refer to the diagrams at the right for mounting dimensions.

    3. Install conduit(s) and connect the load circuits to the relays. The largest wire size that can be used is 12 AWG. Make note of which circuits connect to each relay.

    4. On the LitePak Panel, make note of which relay is connected, via its red control wire, to which controller output.

    For 8-relay models, factory default is each controller output to the relay having the same number: controller output #1 to relay #1, etc. For 16-relay models, default is 2 adjacent relays connected to an output in numerical order. This can later be changed by rewiring the terminal block once the relay schedules are determined. Up to 4 relays can be connected to one controller output.

    5. (optional ) If an Expansion Pak is used, connect its relay inputs and 24V input to the LitePak Panel via an 11-conductor bus. Refer to "Internal Connections" on page 33 of this manual for connection details.

    6. (optional ) If a WPS-5527K Remote Photo is used, mount it and connect its wires to the 'Sensor Wire' terminals in the LitePak Panel.

    Do not mount the sensor where artificial light shines directly on it. For best results, mount it facing the northern sky. The sensor should be mounted, whenever possible, either indoors or in a sheltered area.

    7. (optional ) Mount and connect any remote override switches, if override switches will be used. An override switch can control individual relays or groups of relays.

    Low voltage switches controlling relay(s) should have their red control wire connected directly to the red terminal of the relay(s), in parallel to the controller output.

    A group switch for controlling some or all of the Litepak controller ouputs may be connected directly to the 'Group Switch Inp' terminal in the LitePak Panel.

    Refer to "External Connections" and "Internal Connections" on pages 32-33 of this manual for connection details.

    8. Install the controller module in the panel. Plug the wire control harness into the terminals, position the module onto the top and bottom hinges, then secure by inserting the top hinge screw. After the controller is mounted, re-install the cover (by securing screws at edges) on each panel used.

    9. Supply power to the transformer.

    CAUTION: Do not connect 277V to the 120V wire (black) of the transformer as the overvoltage will permanently damage the LitePak controller.

    10. By using the manual override lever on the relays, verify that the correct loads are connected to each relay.

  • First Time Operation

    LitePak: Directions & Applications page 6 lighting controls

    Initial Setuprefer to the following sections of the manual for details on these procedures.1. For each panel fill out the relay panel schedule, which lists the load

    circuit, the controller output, any overide switch(es) and the type of control(s) for each relay in the panel. (Blank relay panel schedules are provided in Appendix C of this manual.)

    The type(s) of control can be:- timer control (ON or OFF at specified times);- photocell control (ON or OFF in response to light levels measured by

    a photocell);- astro control (ON at dusk, OFF at dawn)- other control (Time Out, Flick Warn, Sentry Switch).

    2. Based on the relay panel schedule(s), identify any relays with identical control schemes. Connect those relays to the same output from the controller. Also, any relays controlled by the same local override switch should be connected to the same output.

    A maximum of 4 relays can be connected to the same output. Note the new relay output connections on the relay schedule(s). CAUTION: make sure that the no relay is connected to different controller outputs and that no controller outputs are connected together.

    3. For each output, fill in the event schedule (Blank event schedules are provided in Appendix D of this manual.)

    The event schedule lists what actions are to occur for the circuits controlled at which time and on which days. Manual controls, local switches or group switches are not listed.

    These events will all be programmed into the controller in a later step.

    4. Power up the Lite Pak. The power indicator LED on the controller face should be ON and the Main Menu should appear in the controller LCD display.

    Use the Manual Menu (MANU) override relays option to verify that the correct relays are being switched by each controller output.

    5. Use the Setup Menu (SETUP) adjust Date/Time option to set the correct date and time. Use the Setup Menu Daylight Savings option to make the correct daylight savings time setting for your area.

    6. If astronomic control will be used, use the Setup Menu Astro Settings option to activate astro control, enter the location and time zone (the controller will compute dawn and dusk times based on these values) and enter any offsets.

    7. If photocell control will be used, use the Setup Menu Photo Settings option to activate photo control.

    8. If a group switch will be used, use the Setup Menu Group Swt option to assign relay outputs to it.

    If sentry switch control will be used, use the Setup Menu Sentry option to assign relay outputs to it. These outputs should have no other type of control except for timed OFF.

    9. Use the Schedule Menu (SCHED) to enter all the events listed in the event schedules. Make sure that all the events listed for each output are entered.

    The Astro feature factory default is disabled. This setting should be enabled if there will be schedules using dusk and dawn times.

    The latitude, longitude and the time zone must be entered for the LitePak to automatically calculate the dawn and dusk times. Then, the schedules that include the Astro commands will switch ON at dusk and OFF at dawn.

    The switching times can be offset to occur before or after the calculated dawn and dusk time. The offset can be adjusted between a range of +180 minutes to -180 minutes. The default is 0 min. offset for both dawn and dusk.

    A negative offset will result in lights switching ON before dusk or OFF before dawn. Positive offset has the opposite effect: lights switching after dusk and after dawn.

    The relay outputs on the Litepak can be set to provide a pulsed OFF signal for Sentry Switch Control.

    The factory default for the Litepak is no relay outputs set for Sentry Switch Control.

    WHAT IS SENTRY SWITCH CONTROL?

    Sentry switches are often used in retrofit applications to provide automated lighting control. Sentry Switches control the line voltage current (120V or 277V) to the new fixture. Whenever the power is interrupted for longer than 5 seconds, the Sentry Switch resets itself to OFF. When power is returned back ON, the fixture remains OFF because the Sentry Switch has reset to OFF. Occupants can then turn lights back ON by activating the Sentry Switch.

    � From the Setup Menu select option (e), using the A and B buttons, to enable Sentry Control and adjust the Sentry settings.

    1 Sentry Control Setup

    Outputs that are programmed for other forms of switching such as Astronomic Control, Photo Control or Flick Warn should NOT be programmed for Sentry Control.

    The Group Switch menu lets users select relay outputs to be controlled by the group switch input. Connect any model of Douglas 2-wire switch to the Group input (WR-8501, WR-8001 & WRK-8201).

    The default setting is all relay outputs can be controlled by the Group Switch input.

    Group Switch(es) are ideal in applications requiring a master override switch. An example would be an office space consisting of four individual offices each with a local switch plus a common office area. The Group Switch would be capable of switching OFF and ON all 5 areas at the same time.

    Scheduling: Types of Schedules

    Timed Schedules� Use timed schedules to automatically

    switch lights. � Remote switches permit occupant

    ON/OFF switching.

    Astronomical Control� Using longitude, latitude, time zone

    and date, the controller calculates the sunset and sunrise times. An output can be programmed to switch at these calculated times.

    � An offset time (± 180 min) can be entered to cause the switching to occur before or after the actual sunset and sunrise time.

    Time-Out Mode� The Time-Out mode causes the

    controller output to start an internal timer when it detects the relay is switched ON by a switch. When the timer expires, the output switches the relay OFF.

    � The time-out mode can be enabled and disabled with a time schedule. For example, switches work normally during business hours and function with time-out mode during closed hours.

    Flick Warn� Flick Warn feature is used to warn

    occupants that lights will be switched OFF in 5 minutes.

    Regular & Holiday Schedules• Schedules - there are two type of schedules - Regular & Holiday.

    • Regular Schedules - operate year round on a weekly basis.

    • Holiday Schedules - operate on a specific date and have precedence over Regular schedules that repeat each week. Each holiday has an independent schedule, allowing unique schedules for each holiday date.

    Regular and Holiday schedules both provide the same type of scheduling features. The process of setting up a Regular or Holiday schedule is virtually identical, with the only difference being Holiday schedules are set up to operate on specific dates rather than on days of the week.

    • Memory Capacity - The LitePak controller can store up to 900 unique scheduled events. This is more than sufficient for the majority of applications.

    • Power Failure - Both Regular and Holiday schedules are retained indefinitely should power be disconnected to the unit.

    *If switches are installed, ON schedules should not be used, because the switches permit the lights to be turned ON only when needed. The OFF schedules ensure lights are eventually switched OFF.

Make sure to fill in the appropriate schedules found in Appendix C and Appendix D at the back of this manual. Once all the schedules have been completed, the user can enter all this information into the LitePak.

    1

    � Determine the number of lighting control zones that are required.

    � LitePak is equipped with 8 relay outputs. So, ensure that there are no more than 8 zones of control. Also ensure that none of the zones (relay outputs) are controlling more than 4 relays.

    � If the design exceeds these requirements, contact the local Douglas representive or contact the factory via our web site at www.DouglasLightingControls.com for information on Douglas products better suited for larger applications.

    Determine the Number of Lighting Zones

    � Based on the number of required lighting control zones determine the appropriate quantity of relays per zone.

    � List the circuit number and a description of the load next to each relay on the lighting control panel schedule.

    � Check mark on the schedule all the various types of control that are required for each relay.

    � For 8-relay LitePak models, each relay output comes factory wired to one relay (i.e. Output #1 is wired to Relay #1). For 16-relay LitePak models, 2 adjacent relays are factory wired to an output in numerical order. These can be changed by rewiring the terminal block. A maximum of 4 relays can be connected to a relay output. CAUTION: Ensure that different outputs are not connected to the same relay(s).

    � Identify the relays with identical control schemes and ensure those relays are controlled by a common relay output.

    � There should be no more than 4 relays controlled by common relay output. In the event that there are more than 4 relays to be controlled with the same schedules, program 2 outputs with identical schedules and split the relay group.

    � For each relay output there should be a separate event schedule. Use this schedule to enter the event time, type of action and the days of the week the event will be executed.

    � The type of action can be determined by looking to see what control strategy boxes were check marked on the Relay Panel Schedule.

    � Manual controls (Local or Group Switch) are not entered onto the Event Schedule.

    Time control can be usedto switch lights OFF andto disable sensor effect.

    Override Switching(not a Scheduled Event)� To override circuits at the panel, use

    the manual ON/OFF levers built into the relays or the manual override option of the controller.

    � � Install switch stations at locations convenient to occupants.

    � � To control an individual circuit, connect a switch directly to the relay. To control a number of circuits, use the group input on the controller.

    Scheduling: Accessing the Scheduling Menu

    Regular & Holiday Schedules• Schedules - there are two type of schedules: Regular & Holiday.

    • Regular Schedules - operate year round on a weekly basis.• Holiday Schedules - operate on a specific date and have

    precedence over Regular schedules that repeat each week. Each holiday has its own independent schedule, allowing unique schedules for each holiday date.

    Regular & Holiday schedules both provide the same type of scheduling features. The process of setting up a Regular or Holiday scheduls is virtually identical. All the same programming features are available to both. The only difference is Holiday schedules operate on a specific date.

    • Memory Capacity - The LitePak controller can store up to 900unique scheduled events. This is more than sufficient for most applications.

    • Power Failure - Both Regular & Holiday schedules are retainedindefinitely should power be disconnected to the unit. In the event of a power failure, the date and time are retained for a period of 72 hrs. If more than 72 hours elapses, date and time must be re-entered. All programmed schedules, however, are saved indefinitely if power is lost.

    Scheduling BasicsThe Scheduling Menu lets the user enter both Weekly & Holiday scheduled events into the Litepak controller memory. The following is a guide on how to set up all the various types of schedules.

    The procedure for creating or editing a Weekly or Holiday schedule is virtually identical, except that Holiday schedules require the user to first enter a specific date on which the schedule will be executed. Once the holiday date is selected, the procedure is the same as for a Weekly schedule.

    The procedure for starting a Holiday schedule is shown on this page. The examples and explanations depicted on the pages that follow in this section will be for a Weekly schedule.

    What is a Flick Warn (OFF+Flick) ?Flick Warn is used to warn occupants that an impending OFF sweep will occur in 5 minutes. When the flick command is initially issued, the relays will turn OFF and ON signaling the impending OFF signal. Occupants can cancel relays from being switched OFF by flicking them again with a local switch within the 5 minute time period.

    Flick Warn is best utilized in applications where occupants work extended hours. Best results are obtained if occupants are aware of how to disable the OFF sweep after the Flick Warn. However, even if they are unaware, properly located switch stations will permit occupants to turn the lights back ON.

    ACTIONTIME

    What is a Time Out (TIMEOUT ENB) ?The Time Out feature is ideally used in applications where a switch is directly controlling lights in a room. This feature provides a convenient way of automatically switching the light (relay output) OFF when the occupants forget to turn the light OFF after leaving the room.

    When the Time Out mode is enabled, the relay output will automatically monitor the state of the relay. At any time during the Time Out period, if an occupant were to turn ON the relay by using a local room switch, this would automatically start the internal counter. Let's assume the occupant leaves the room without turning the relay OFF. Upon time expiry of the counter, the relay output will switch the relay OFF.

    To disable the Time Out mode, an OFF schedule must be programmed after the Time Out mode is scheduled.

    Example Application: If business hours are 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, the Time Out feature can be enabled at 7:00 PM and disabled by an OFF schedule at 5:00 AM. As a result, the switches would operate normally during business hours and function in Time Out mode during closed hours. The diagram below shows this utilization of the Time Out feature.

  • LitePak: Directions & Applications page 25 lighting controls

    Scheduling: Programming Types of Schedules

    How the Photocell Control (PHOTO ENB) works:The LitePak will automatically keep track of the measured light level (in footcandles) transmitted from the sensor head. This information will be displayed on the Main Menu. The measured light level can be used to switch relays ON or OFF depending on the setpoints.

    The following diagram shows the relationship between measured light level and the setpoints.

    CAUTION: Do not schedule an ON, OFF+FLICK, Time Out (TIMEOUT ENB) or Astronomical (ASTRO ENB) event when the Photocell mode (PHOTO ENB) is scheduled to operate on a relay output.

    5fcLow Level Setpoint

    20fcHigh Level Setpoint

    15fccurrent measured light level

    from sensor head

    When the measured light level passes above the high setpoint, the relay will turn OFF. The opposite occurs when the measured light level passes below the low setpoint.

    Note the switching action only occurs when the light level goes past a setpoint or when the Photocell is enabled by a scheduled event. The relay outputs will issue a momentary signal ON or OFF.

    The LitePak will wait 3 minutes to switch the relay. The purpose is to nullify any temporary changes to the light level that could cause false switching.

    Photocell control is used primarily in exterior or interior skylighting control applications. Typically, for an exterior application the setpoints would be 20fc for the high & 5fc for the low.

    For an interior application that switches lights on a cloudy day, typical setpoints would be 1000fc for the high and 700fc for the low.

    � DUSK-to-DAWN - To achieve this type of control, it is advised that the Photocell Control feature be enabled for every day of the week. An example time would be 4:00 AM. Make sure no other schedules are operating the same relay output.

    The relay (lights) will turn ON at Dusk and OFF at Dawn. By adjusting the high & low setpoints, the user can vary the amount of light required to switch the relays ON or OFF. Dusk-to-Dawn control is ideal for security lighting applications. The following diagram shows a typical Photocell Dusk-to-Dawn control cycle.

    Photocell enabled, light levelbelow low setpoint, relay turns ON(probably already ON by dusk signal)

    Light level goes above highsetpoint, relay turns OFF

    Light level goes below lowsetpoint, relay turns ON

    The Photocell Control can be set up to operate in several different ways, as described as follows.

    To utilize this feature, the Astro Settings Option must be turned ON in the Setup Menu. The Astro Dawn and Dusk Offsets are also adjusted in the Setup Menu.

    ASTRO ENB

    How the Astro Control (ASTRO ENB) works:When the Astro Settings option is enabled via the Setup Menu, the LitePak controller will automatically calculate the sunrise and sunset times for all the days of the year. This information is displayed in the Information Menu. These calculated sunrise and sunset times can be used to switch relays ON or OFF.

    When sunrise occurs, the relay will turn OFF. When sunset occurs, the relay will turn ON.

    Note the switching action only occurs when sunset or sunrise occur, or when the Astro feature is enabled by a scheduled event. When the Astro feature is enabled, the LitePak will check if sunrise or sunset was the last action to occur and will issue an ON or OFF signal to the relay output depending on what was the last action.

    The Astro control can be used as a substitute for Photocell control for applications where a Photocell Sensor is not installed.

    � DUSK-to-TIMED OFF - To achieve this type of control, the Photo control must be enabled to initiate the Photo feature. A timed OFF command is issued to switch the lights OFF at the desired time. The timed OFF command also disables the Photo feature. If the feature is required for the following day, it must be entered for each day. The best time to enable the Photo feature is sometime during the day, say 3:00 PM.

    By adjusting the high and low setpoints, the user can vary the amount of light required to switch relays ON or OFF. The following diagram shows a typical Photo Dusk-to-Timed OFF control cycle.

    � DUSK-to-TIMED OFF, TIMED ON-to-DAWN - To achieve this type of control, the Photo control is enabled at a time before dawn when the lights are to be switched ON, for instance 4:00 AM. When enabled, the Photo command will issue an ON signal before sunrise or an OFF signal after sunrise. At sunset, an ON signal is issued. Late at night, a timed OFF signal occurs to switch OFF the lights. At 4:00 AM the Photo enable occurs and the cycle repeats.

    By adjusting the high and low setpoints, the user can vary the amount of light required to switch relays ON or OFF. The diagram below shows a typical Photo Sunset-to-Timed-OFF control cycle.
