6. Creating profiles

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.

Profiles hold all the parameters to be applied to the device.

To access this menu:

• Profiles > Components

• Create a new profile by clicking on the drop down box on '100 - Default'

• Tap NEW PROFILE TYPE (this will create a copy of the profile selected)

• 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

  • DayNightEnabled - See Application Note - Building Occupied & Unoccupied Mode

  • Save Changes

Device type

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

• Save Changes

LDR

The LDR box can be used to set up Daylight Sensors.

• Daylight Sensors - if you have a Recessed IP20 or Surface IP56, review the Spec Guide to determine whether to use Sensor Up or Sensor Down

Repeat the process for as many profiles as you require, remembering to save each profile
