System Photocell
System Photocell FEATURES
Product Overview
The Avi-on® System Photocell provides photocell based sunrise/sunset control of both lights and sensors. One System Photocell can control any number of lights in a location as long as they are all able to communicate with each other within the Avi-on network.
The System Photocell allows customization of the trigger light level to turn on/off from full sun to dark twilight. The initial dimming levels of the lights can also be set from the System Photocell.
The unit will also enable/disable Direct Connect™ motion sensors at the same time the lights are turned on/off.
The System Photocell kit is comprised of an Avi-on 12-24V LVFA with a special System Photocell firmware and an Avi-on Direct Connect Outdoor PIR sensor. A 120-277V to 12VDC power supply and Direct Connect cable are included in the kit.
Installation
Install the System Photocell anywhere within the Avi-on network. Choose a location indicative of the light level you would like the lights to respond to, point the sensor toward that area, and away from artificial light sources or auto headlights, preferably side mounted.
Mount the control unit inside a waterproof junction box and surface mount the sensor to the box. Mount the antenna base to the case through a 1/4” hole and connect the external antenna. Connect to a 12-24VDC power source or 110-277V power adaptor to an AC source.
Applications
A single system photocell can control networks of any size as long as the unit and the controlled devices are all within wireless range of each other. The sensor can control up to 20 different sensors and/or groups of devices. Fixture-mounted sensors will automatically be controlled by configuring to the lighting group.
Use multiple system photocells if you want different daylight trigger settings or dim levels for different areas, or if there are separated network areas.
