Daylight Harvesting

What are three methods of configuring Closed Loop as the Daylight harvesting mode using the Lumos Controls mobile app?

Maintain current light level, Identify desired light level, Enter sensor value

Closed Loop configurations can be performed using three different methods

1. Maintain Current Light Level

This method is intended for users who want to maintain the ambient lighting they are currently exposed to but are unaware of the exact Lux values to be configured to the daylight sensor.

2. Identify Desired Light Level

This method can be used if the user knows what Lux value is to be maintained at his workstation (the area where he wants his desired lighting) but is unaware of the Lux value to be configured to the daylight sensor.

3. Enter Sensor Value  

This method can be used if the user is well aware of the exact Lux value to be configured to the daylight sensor.

Note: The light level that the sensor is exposed to and the light level falling on the workstation will be different as the sensor is usually mounted above the workstation.

 

Note: The values are configured in terms of Lux for the sensors Radiar SD10, Cyrus AP and Cyrus AM, and in terms of 'V' for the AC powered sensors connected to input channels of Radiar AR10 or Ldrive 40W.
