Owlet Wireless Autonomous Outdoor Lumen controller LuCo-AD 1-10V/DALIDatasheet

General DescriptionThe LuCo-AD is an autonomous, intelligent control node fitted to outdoor

luminaires for residential, road and urban applications.

The LuCo-AD controls the driver/ballast through either a DALI or 1-10V

interface.

The LuCo-NX also provides a sensor input which is compatible with the

dry contacts of a wide variety of presence, movement or traffic detectors

to adapt the light levels on demand and the LightSync technology which

ensures dusk/dawn detection.

It also provides independent energy saving algorithms with a Constant

Light Output (CLO) feature which compensates for the depreciation of the

luminous flux over time and a Virtual Power Output (VPO) feature which

equalises wattage steps in a luminaire to prevent excess lighting.

Based on the ZigBee wireless protocol system, all the LuCo-AD nodes

together create a robust and reliable autonomous mesh network to control

the luminaire based sensor signals (such as motion detection) to adapt

the light intensity when required and to group dimming profiles for

customised lighting levels and maximum energy savings.

• Each lamp is equipped with a LuCo-AD node (1).

(AD = Autonomous Dimming)

• An external sensor can be connected (2) to each LuCo-AD

(such as a motion detector).

• A LuCo-AD can also be used without a lamp and only

with a sensor.

• All LuCo-AD nodes communicate with each other wirelessly (3).

• A mobile commissioning device (4) is used

to transfer the configuration to the LuCo-AD node.

General operationThe LuCo-AD is designed to perform two major tasks.

1. Control and detection

The LuCo-AD receives incoming commands (sensor events) from sister

nodes in the mesh network and acts accordingly to adapt the light

output of the luminaire using its 1-10V/DALI interface (0 - 100% light).

If a sensor is attached to the sensor input of the LuCo-AD, it will send

a detection event to the RF mesh net and all of the associated

luminaires will act according to the event and idle dim profile stored

in the LuCo-AD nodes.

Behaviour in case of disruption / uncommisioned installation

In case of disrupted RF communication, the Luco-AD node will operate

with the maximum value of the Idle or Event profile and reacts to its

own sensor.

If the installation is not commissioned, the LuCo-AD will turn its out-

put (1-10V/DALI) to 100% power on.

2. Generate Energy Savings

The LuCo firmware has two inbuilt remotely configurable energy

saving algorithms:

i. Constant Light Output (CLO) which compensates for the

depreciation of the luminous flux over time according to the

maintenance factor of the luminaire/lamp/LED assembly.

ii. Virtual Power Output (VPO) which equalises wattage steps

in a luminaire to prevent excess lighting.

ApplicationsThe LuCo-AD controls LED drivers and ballasts as per the

wiring diagrams below.

It is designed to be used in outdoor luminaires for residential,

road and urban applications.

Behaviour with Idle/EventEach LuCo-AD node normally runs the configured Idle profile. Each LuCo-AD can be configured to be activated by specific sensors for the Event

dimming profile. A LuCo-AD node can be activated by up to 15 sensors.

Network All LuCo-AD nodes are connected to each other using wireless

ZigBee. This connection enables each LuCo-AD node to react

to every sensor.

External sensorsAn external sensor can be connected to each LuCo-AD node

(such as a motion detector). When the sensor is activated, a

signal is sent to all other LuCo-AD nodes.



MountingThe LuCo-AD is designed to fit into the gear compartment of the

luminaire. The recommended antenna position is on top of the

luminaire to provide optimum conditions for wireless communication.

The COAX antenna cable must be installed so that it is fixed with a

radius of 10mm minimum. If damaged, the antenna (and cable) must

be replaced. Only one LuCo controller can be fitted per luminaire.

ZigBee/IEEE addressThe LuCo-AD is a node in a large mesh network of LuCo-AD nodes.

To represent the node in a map and address it individually, the

geographic position and the unique ZigBee address needs to be

recorded. This address is printed on four barcode labels on the

node. After installation on-site, the barcode must be scanned

during the configuration of the system.
