Pre-Commissioning
Creating a New Site
This is the Home Page for the LiteIP Control App. You can return here at any point by tapping on the site postcode. On this page you can view the sites you have set up locally on the tablet or have available to download from the server.
If you tap on a postcode under “Postcodes on Tablet” you will be able to see information related to that site. This will not work if you select a drawing under “Postcodes on Server” as the data must be downloaded first (see Postcodes section).
...
Post Codes
To create a new site tap on the “Add New Postcode” button.
This will open the postcode window. Simply enter both parts of the postcode and tap Validate, Register and then download. To do this you must be connected to the internet and logged in.
After 30 seconds you can then press close.
This will have now created the postcode within your “Postcodes on Tablet” window. Tap on the newly created postcode and then the drawings tab in the navigation panel.
If the postcode has already been created then after pressing Validate you will be prompted to press Download and not Validate.

Drawings - Importing
For the commissioning process to be as accurate as possible, drawings need to be imported onto the tablet. The most common way to do this is to provide LiteIP with drawings when the LiteIP–Tablet–Pack is ordered.A tablet request form is then issued to ensure the address and postcode of the site is captured. At this stage we will also request the gmail account which the OEM/client wish to use going forward. If no gmail account exists we will create one which is generally, lighting. sitexxxx@gmail.com.
Drawings can be manually imported onsite as follows:
Send the drawing to LiteIP Wireless Radio to resize and convert into a bmp file
Download and Save the file to the tablet
Load the LiteIP Wireless Radio Commissioning App > Drawings > New
Import a Drawing File by selecting Browse
Select the file and tap Okay
...
Drawings - Creating
If no drawings exist, then manual drawings can be created:
...
Note – if manual drawings are required then the OEM should be in attendance with the commissioning engineer to ensure they are satisfied with the drawing layout prior to any additional works being undertaken.
Simulating Devices - Array
The OEM can improve the speed and accuracy of the commissioning process by adding simulated devices to the drawings before onsite work commences. This allows for luminaire positions to be allocated and adjusted.
...
If you need to move the group (or a smaller group), drag your finger across the group and use the arrow in the bottom right of the screen
Repeat the process to add more arrays of fittings
Simulating Devices - Individual
Once you have simulated arrays for the majority of the devices it may be necessary to add one or two additional fittings manually:
...
The orange luminaires represent placeholders which will be replaced upon commissioning with real devices. This also serves as a check to ensure that all real devices have been captured on commissioning as an orange device only ever represents a simulated device.
...

Locate
In order to replace simulated devices with real devices:
Tap Locate, ensure your LiteIP Mate DONGLE is connected and Bluetooth Symbol is illuminated
For further details on connecting LiteIP Mate DONGLE - see Application Note - LiteIP Mate 4. First connection
Press Find, if you are in range of LiteIP Wireless Radio devices, the list will populate with up to 9 devices
...

It will be necessary to move around the site to locate all of the fittings. |
Emergency Fittings
If you have emergency fittings, these should be identified at this stage of the process. This should always be done in accordance with the drawings provided by the OEM, with a visual check of the luminaire to make certain it is an emergency luminaire.
When locating luminaires and you find an emergency luminaire -:
Tap ‘Configure’ in the bottom left of the screen and select Emergency on the left hand side
This will apply an 'E' to the selected fitting for identification
...
Creating Profiles
Once all luminaires are identified and placed onto the relevant drawing, the next stage is to create profiles in accordance with the Controls Philosophy.
...
Rename the device as appropriate and Save
Driver
Select the Driver, this will bring up the following options -.
...
Select the Driver for the fitting -:
Fixed Output - will not be dimmable will switch on/off only
DALI or 1-10v - will allow the following settings to be applied
...
Select the required settings for this profile -:
OnLevel - the maximum on level of the luminaire
FadeTime - the length of time the fitting will take to fade to Standby Level
StandbyLevel - the level of the luminaire once it is dimmed
StandbyTime - the length of time the luminaire remains at the Standby Level
Set at 127.5 for Never Off
PowerOn - enter the wattage of the luminaire at full output

E3Module
If there are emergency fittings of this luminaire type this select the E3 Module Box and the appropriate Emergency Manufacturer. It is not necessary to have a standalone profile for emergency and non-emergency luminaires of the same type.
...
If there is more than one type of emergency module manufacturer, you will need multiple profiles

LDR
The LDR box can be used to set up Daylight Sensors, Lamp Monitors or Temperature Sensors.
...
Daylight Sensors - if you have a Circular Recessed , Surface IP65 or Conduit Entry SensorIP20 or Surface IP56, review the Spec Guide to determine whether to use Sensor Up or Sensor Down
Lamp Monitor - select this if you have a V Sense Monitor
Temperature - select this if you have a Temperature Monitor

Daylight Sensor, Lamp and Temperature Monitors cannot all be combined in the same G2Controller. Only one option is available in a Slimline Controller. |
Device Icon
Once you have set up each profile, you can change the icon so it's easier to identify on the drawing
...
Repeat the process for as many profiles as you require, remembering to save each profile
Applying Profiles
Once you have created your profiles, they can be applied to the LiteIP Wireless Radio devices.
Select Luminaires > Configure
Select an individual device or group of devices by swiping your finger across a group of devices
Tap Profile and the drop down list will appear

Linking
Now devices need to be linked into groups.
Presence
Tap Luminaires > Link
Individual Link
To put an individual link between luminaires, determine the two fittings to be linked and drag your finger between the two devices.
This will put a link in the direction you drew the line
If you require a bi-directional link, draw a line back the other way
...
Multiple Links
Select the group of fittings you'd like to link by dragging your finger over them
You will be presented with 6 options -
...
Link All(xx) - this will link all luminaires together so that presence detected on any sensor will bring the other linked fittings on
Unlink All - this will remove all presence links for the group of devices
Link From X - this will provide a link from another device. If you select this option you will be prompted to enter the full device number
Link To X - this will provide a link to another device. If you select this option you will be prompted to enter the full device number
Link to Self – Link luminaires to themselves so they will operate independently
Me&2 - this will allow for smaller groups of fittings to be linked within a large group and is typically used in open areas. The '2' can be changed to a larger number with a long press on the 'Me&2'button
To implement -
highlight the whole group to be controlled in this way
long press Me&2
a popup box will prompt you to enter the group size > save
press the Me&xx button again (this will now display the number you entered)
a diagram will appear on the drawing

Backup
It is important that the commissioning tablet is the Master and is Uploaded to the cloud for several reasons:-
Unless the Project is uploaded to the cloud, no information will be available on the internet Dashboard.
Unless the Project is uploaded to the cloud, the Collators ACCESS POINTs (if installed) will not be able to upload information to the Cloud.
If the project is uploaded to the Cloud then it will be available for other authorised tablet users to download and potentially take control of.
If you lose or break your tablet, having a backup in the Cloud will allow you to restore the project onto a new tablet.
...
To Upload -:
Ensure the tablet is connected to the internet
Click on the blue Wi-Fi symbol > the yellow Cloud Control Box will appear
Ensure that Read Access, Write Access, Enabled, Uploading and Master are ticked
Press Re-sync
