UNIT DESCRIPTION
The LMLS-500 is an open loop photosensor that measures
daylight in order to automatically switch or dim up to three zones
of lighting. It is part of a Digital Lighting Management (DLM)
system and sends light level signals to control loads connected
to DLM switching or dimming room controllers. The LMLS-500
has a photodiode with an extended range of 1-6,553 footcandles
(fc) and photopic correction to mimic the human eye for precise
measurement of visible light.
The LMLS-500 operates on Class 2 power supplied to a DLM
local network by one or more DLM room controllers. Once set
up, the LMLS-500 uses switching or dimming setpoints and other
control parameters to manage the light levels throughout the day
regardless of changing daylight contribution.
Sensor Installation and Configuration Overview
1. Mount the photosensor so that the Daylight Viewing Port
directly views the daylight entering the space through
a window or a skylight. See Placement Guidelines and
Mounting the Photosensor.
2. Complete all wiring and turn ON power to the room
controller.
3. Use the LMCS-100 or LMCT-100 configuration tool to
complete the configuration process. The LMLS-500 will not
operate properly until the configuration and calibration is
successful.
a. Select the LMLS-500 to configure and select Zone
Setup.
b. Choose the desired number of zones (1-3), then select
the operating mode for each zone (Switched, Bi-Level,
Tri-Level, Dimmed).
c. Assign individual loads to each of the configured zones.
d. Calibrate the LMLS-500. Use a light meter to measure
the light level at each zone with the lights ON and OFF to
determine the relationship between the light level at the
task and light level at the LMLS-500.
e. Adjust Zone Settings and Advanced Settings to meet
specific sequence of operation requirements.
f. Use Test Mode to verify the LMLS-500 operation.

  • Page 2: Placement Guidelines

    PLACEMENT GUIDELINES WARNING: DO NOT USE THE DLM LOCAL NETWORK TO CONTROL LOADS OTHER THAN LIGHTING IF THE LOAD IS NOT IN VIEW OF A PERSON AT ALL CONTROL LOCATIONS. DO NOT USE DLM TO CONTROL ANY LOAD THAT MIGHT BE DANGEROUS OR CAUSE A HAZARDOUS SITUATION IF ACCIDENTALLY ACTIVATED. The LMLS-500 switches or dims electric light in response to daylight.
  • Page 3: Mounting The Photosensor

    MOUNTING THE PHOTOSENSOR In most applications, the unit is mounted through a ceiling tile, with only the lens being visible from inside the room; the remainder of the unit rests on top of the tile. It can also be mounted on or through the wall of a skylight light well. In these types of applications, an accessory plastic mounting bracket is required.

    WIRING DIRECTIONS OPERATION Installation shall be in accordance with all applicable regulations, The LMLS-500 communicates to all other Lighting Management wiring practices, and codes. devices connected to the DLM Local Network. It is dependent on a DLM Room Controller (LMRC-100 series for ON/OFF switched The DLM Local Network is free topology low voltage wiring.
  • Page 5: Operating Modes

    OPERATING MODES Plug n’ Go The LMLS-500, unlike most other DLM Components, will not auto-configure. The LMLS-500 must be manually configured using the LMCT-100 or LMCS-100. Push n’ Learn Push and Learn™ (PnL) provides for remote load binding and configuration within the room, without requiring direct access to the Room Controller(s).
  • Page 6 CONFIGURATION The configuration process establishes the appropriate parameters for operation. This is done through the use of an LMCT-100 configuration tool. If no configuration steps are taken, the sensor will use its default values for setpoints. The LMCT-100 Wireless IR Configuration Tool is a handheld tool for setup and testing of Wattstopper Digital Lighting Management (DLM) devices.

    TROUBLESHOOTING Lights do not switch or dim when desired, under daylight control • Use the pushbutton on the photosensor face to manually test load control (see SENSOR PUSHBUTTONS on page 3). If the lights do not switch ON and OFF, check Zone Settings to rebind the loads. If the lights do switch ON and OFF, use the Zone Settings screen to verify that the ON and OFF setpoints are correct (if Switching / Bi-Level / Tri-Level), or if dimmed, dimming setpoint is correct.
