Overview

The DALI-2 RAPID PIR mid-range presence detectors provides automatic control of lighting. It is connected to the RAPID DALI-2 Gateway via a DALI network.
Functioning as a presence detector, the unit can turn lights on when a room is occupied and off when the room is empty.
An adjustable internal light sensor provides light level information to the RAPID system to allow lights to be kept off if sufficient daylight is present, and to enable maintained illuminance for dimming systems.
An integral IR sensor in the unit allows the unit to be commissioned, and used in conjunction with a remote control handset (part no: UHS) to:

Act as a conventional dimmer
Override the unit on or off

Features

PIR Sensor
Detects movement within the unit’s detection range, allowing load control in response to changes in occupancy.
IR Receiver
Receives control and programming commands from an IR (infrared) handset.
Light Level Sensor
Measures the overall light level in the detection area
Status LEDs
The LED flashes Red or Green to indicate the following:

DALI connection
Connection to the DALI bus via pluggable screw terminals. The DALI bus is polarity insensitive.

Installation

Choosing a Suitable Location
The EBR-EBDMR-DALI are designed to be ceiling mounted and must satisfy the following criteria:

Avoid positioning the unit where direct sunlight may enter the sensor element.
Do not site the sensor within 1m of any lighting, forced air heating or ventilation.
Do not fix the sensor to an unstable or vibrating surface.
Do not exceed maximum length of cable (200m) on data bus.
Do not exceed maximum bus loading (240mA).

System wiring example (For reference)

IMPORTANT NOTICE!: This device should be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the latest edition of the IET Wiring Regulations and any applicable Building Regulations.

The EBR-EBDMR-DALI are designed to be mounted using either:

Flush fixing, or
Surface fixing, using the optional Surface Mounting Box (part no. EBDBB). Both methods are illustrated below.

DALI bus loading

For reference only: Devices (detectors / input units) and driver combinations for 200mA supply.
This assumes that the sensor LEDs are all on, and the sensor is receiving IR communication.

4 devices and up to 64 drivers
5 devices and up to 55 drivers
6 devices and up to 44 drivers
7 devices and up to 33 drivers
8 devices and up to 22 drivers
9 devices and up to 12 drivers
10 devices and up to 2 drivers

In most realistic scenarios, only one LED is on at a time and only one detector is receiving IR; guidance changes to.

10 devices up to 64 drivers
11 devices up to 60 drivers
12 devices up to 55 drivers
13 devices up to 50 drivers
14 devices up to 48 drivers
15 devices up to 44 drivers

Addressing limits of DG64

5 input units of 7 channels each
10 detectors
