CP Electronics VITP7-MB Lighting Control Module
Product Information:
-
Product Name: VITP7-MB, VITP7-MB-DD Lighting control module (LCM)
-
Model Numbers: VITP7-MB, VITP7-MB-DD
-
Product Type: Lighting control module
WARNING : This device should be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the latest edition of the IET wiring regulations.
Product Features:
- Designed to be ceiling-mounted.
- 18 switch connections in the wiring compartment.
- Can supply power to a maximum of either 3 microwave detectors or 6 PIR detectors.
- Can connect combinations of microwave and PIR detectors.
- Compatible with dimming luminaires.
Product Usage Instructions:
Positioning:
- Install the device in the position shown on the installation drawings, if possible.
- Ensure that the installation complies with relevant Building Regulations and the latest IET Wiring Regulations (BS7671).
- Fix the box on a smooth, flat surface or using drop rod fixings. Optional track fixings can also be used.
- Ensure easy access to the wiring compartment and all connectors once the box is in place. Allow 170mm for the total height of the installed unit including connectors and cable.
- Ensure that LCMs face downwards and are clear of obstructions for accessibility and visibility.
Install this way up: The unit MUST be installed this way up to ensure good lock of cable plug to socket.
Power Connections:
- Connect the live terminal L to the maintained live PL.
- Refer to the provided letter-color description for power connection details.
Inrush Current:
- Do not connect more than 36 LED drivers per LCM.
- For Channels 1-4, do not connect more than 3 LED drivers each.
- For Channel 5, do not connect more than 6 LED drivers (3 per output).
- For Channel 6, do not connect more than 9 LED drivers (3 per output).
- For Channel 7, do not connect more than 9 LED drivers (3 per output).
- Note : If other channels are not used, up to a maximum of 5 LED drivers may be connected to a single 6-pole output, as long as the electrical loading, inrush rating, and/or maximum LED driver allowance is not exceeded.
Based on testing using Tridonic LCAI 10W 150 mA-400mA ECO C LED driver (Tridonic Article Number 28000130). Up to a maximum of 80A of Inrush current per output channel for no more than 10 mS. The following maximum number of LED drivers can be connected to VITP7-MB and VITP7-MB-DD. Alternative LED drivers may have larger inrush and will need to be de-rated accordingly. Check with the luminaire manufacturer. CP Electronics accept no responsibility for checking and applying suitable de-rating factors for LED loads.
Switch Connections:
- The LCM has 18 switch connections in the wiring compartment.
- Refer to the preset diagrams in the VITP7 system manual for details on how to connect switches.
- The length of cable between switches and LCMs should not exceed 40 meters.

Detector Connections:
- Connect all detectors before programming the LCM.
- Connect the detectors to each other using RJ45-RJ45 patch leads (part number EBS-PC5M).
- The LCM can supply power to a maximum of either 3 microwave detectors or 6 PIR detectors.
- You can connect combinations of microwave and PIR detectors, but there are power limitations:
- If you connect 1 microwave detector, you can have a maximum of 4 PIRs.
- If you have 2 microwave detectors, you can have a maximum of 2 PIRs.
The power used by 1 microwave detector is the same as that used by 2 PIR detectors. These LCMs can supply power to a maximum of either 3 microwave detectors or 6 PIR detectors. You can connect combinations of microwave and PIR detectors, but this power limitation means that if you connect 1 microwave detector you can only have a maximum of 4 PIRs; if you have 2 microwave detectors you can have a maximum of 2 PIRs.
Luminaire Connections:
- Plug in the luminaires ensuring that the connector latches to the box.
- Pre-wired luminaire leads are available. Please contact our sales office for details.
- For per-luminaire energy measurement, connect one light fitting only per pluggable output.
- Refer to the provided letter-color description for luminaire connection details.
