BT-LWE EMERGENCY OPERATION

The BT-LWE can be configured to act as an Emergency mode controller turning on its connected fixture at full brightness when failure of normal power is detected. See the Douglas Lighting Controls BTCC App Field Manual for details. The BT-LWE Emergency operation can be tested using the iOS mobile device (e.g. iPod Touch) that was used to commission the BT-LWE with the Douglas Lighting Controls BCC

App (BTCC).

To test Emergency operation, perform the following steps:

1. Ensure the emergency circuit is connected to the fixture controlled by the BT-LWE and is energized.
2. Use a Douglas Lighting Controls Bluetooth switch to turn OFF the BT-LWE, or use the BTCC “Room Setup” tab on the commissioning mobile device to access control of the device and turn it OFF.
3. Use the BTCC “System Setup” tab on the commissioning mobile device to navigate to the commissioned devices list and select the settings cogwheel for the BT-LWE to test.
4. In the settings page for the BT-LWE, select the “Test Emergency Mode” button on the bottom of the setting page. The BT-LWE will turn on to 100% brightness for approximately 30 seconds. Following the 30 second test, the fixture will remain ON and return to its previous dimming state. The device will resume normal operation, e.g. responding to occupancy and switch control.
5. Use the “Cancel” button in the upper left corner to exit the BT-LWE Settings page WITHOUT writing the configuration parameters.
