LED driver

Key Features

  • Bluetooth and Zigbee Connectivity: Wireless drivers operate within a Zigbee mesh network and use BLE for commissioning via the Glamox Wireless ZigBee app.

  • Compatibility with Sensors: Wireless drivers can work alongside our Zigbee sensors and switches to provide occupancy-based lighting control and daylight regulation.

  • Grouping and Zoning: Supports configuration into groups and zones, allowing multiple lights to operate together.

  • Energy Reporting: Can track and report energy consumption when used with compatible D4i LED drivers and our Zigbee sensors.

  • Firmware Upgradability: Wireless drivers can receive over-the-air (OTA) updates through the Glamox Wireless ZigBee app or via gateways.

Commissioning Wireless Drivers

Wireless drivers can be added to a Zigbee network using the Glamox Wireless ZigBee app through:

  1. List-Based Commissioning: Devices are discovered and sorted based on their signal strength (RSSI).

  2. Flashlight Commissioning (for luminaires with integrated sensors): A flashlight triggers a response from the sensor to confirm its presence in the network.

Configuration Options

Wireless drivers support the following configurable settings:

  • Field Task Level: Sets the maximum output level of the luminaire.

  • Eco-On Level: Defines the energy-efficient brightness level when a room is occupied.

  • Background Light Level: The dimmed light level when a space is unoccupied.

  • Daylight Regulation: Adjusts light levels based on the amount of daylight detected.

  • Occupancy Modes: Supports Auto-On/Auto-Off, Manual-On/Auto-Off, and Manual-On/Manual-Off configurations.

Limitations & Considerations

  • WZ LED drivers may not be compatible with the old firmware of the MPW sensor.

  • Daylight regulation only works with luminaire-integrated sensors when wireless drivers are used.

  • Wireless drivers must be at firmware 2.1 or higher to function properly in hybrid networks with other Zigbee devices.

  • Mixing Tunable White and non-Tunable White fixtures within the same group is not supported.

Integration with External Sensors and Switches

Wireless drivers can be controlled using:

  • Self-powered Zigbee GreenPower switches

  • Mains-powered external sensors for occupancy detection and daylight sensing

  • Luminaires with an integrated MPW sensor for occupancy detection and daylight sensing

Energy Reporting

Energy reports can be generated using the Glamox Wireless ZigBee app, displaying:

  • Total energy consumption (kWh)

  • Energy usage over a specified time interval

  • Historical energy reports

Firmware Updates

Wireless drivers can receive firmware updates via:

  • The Glamox Wireless ZigBee app (BLE-based updates)

  • A Zigbee gateway (OTA updates)

Troubleshooting

  • If a wireless driver does not respond to group configuration, a network refresh is recommended.

  • Inconsistent energy reporting may require device recalibration or firmware updates.

  • If a wireless driver fails to commission, ensure Bluetooth is enabled and firmware versions are compatible.
