Eaton's range of motion sensors are able to control multiple compatible luminaires and replace the previous ‘Intellect’ Groupmaster units.
Groupmaster provides the opportunity to utilise intelligent lighting controls where it is not possible to use individual intelligent luminaires, perhaps for reasons of budget constraints. Groupmaster provides the benefits and set up features of the ILS ‘Intelligent lighting system’ with reduced equipment costs.
Supplied as a stand-alone unit, each Groupmaster can operate a number of luminaires fitted with switching or digital dimming control gear, sharing light level and on/off control signals.
Standard System Features | Groupmaster Detectors are supplied as a stand alone control unit, for surface or recessed mounting into ceiling systems. System features depend on the exact sensor selected the may include: Groupmaster Functions (variant dependent) • Absence function • Occupancy detection • Daylight linking • Constant illumination • Illumination control • Infra-red system set-up • Stand alone operation or BUS loop communication • Background light mode |
System Components | • Groupmaster Sensor - Take care to select appropriate switching or dimming variant. • Luminaires - Compatible luminaires fitted with digital high frequency dimming or switching control gear. A comprehensive list of luminaires suitable for use with Groupmaster can be provided by contacting our technical support and application department. |
System Design and Installation | • Groupmaster system lighting design is carried out exactly as a conventional system would be, selecting compatible luminaires that are available fitted with high frequency dimming or switching control gear • Light switches are not essential, although a recognised means of isolation is required to facilitate maintenance and re-lamping • Groupmaster units should be located in the most appropriate position for detection purposes. In large areas this is generally in the centre of each group. In small areas, it is likely to be more beneficial over the task area • A mains power supply is connected to the luminaires and Groupmaster units • An additional 2 core communication BUS cable is required to link control units in ILS Groupmaster installations. Polarity must be observed when connecting the BUS cable to each Groupmaster unit • Where ILS Groupmaster sensors are linked with a BUS wiring loop a BUS power supply will be required • The sensors are set up using the 2-way digital programmer (LCSQSP) • We recommend that you contact our technical support and application department for advice on design and system application as Groupmaster is highly project specific |
