(Classic) Sensor: LMS DALI-2 PIR CLS SENSORHEAD 16M

The multisensor is dedicated to mid-bay applications, e.g. factory buildings, storage buildings, warehouses, shopping centers, entry areas and passages.

The sensor-head must be used together with the mounting device:

How to use it in the LMS design?

To place the multisensor in the project, you need to remember the typical Ethernet2DALI limitations

Sensor covers

Sensor covers give the ability to reduce the detection area in aisle applications. These covers can be attached or removed from/to the front of the sensor at any time without the need of opening the luminaire.

Example: Sensor cover in aisles between storage racks. Thanks to this, the sensor does not react to movement in the adjacent aisle.

Example: Sensor cover in open space, along which the corridor runs. Thanks to this, people moving around the office will not turn on the lights in the corridor.

Example: Sensor cover at the entrance. Thanks to this, only the person entering the room will turn on the light.

How to commission it?

To program logic within the Node-RED tool you need to use a DALI2 Devs Common node, which is available in the node palette on the left-hand side of Node-RED UI. 

Click this node to enter the configuration window. Choose the serial number of the device in the Serial Number field. Uncheck the Motion/presence sensor checkbox. Below you have two fields where you can set the presence and transition time duration.

Then click Done in the upper right corner of the window.

Then you need to find the vertex action node in the palette. Set Mode as Motion sensor. Then select the group you want to control by this multisensor. Next, you should define actions in Presence, Transition, and No presence fields.  Define these actions as you need.

Don't forget to connect all your nodes and be sure that the vertex cluster node is present in your flow! 

Then click Deploy button at the upper-right corner of the Node-RED.

Import the ready flow using the code below:
