PICO S8 Expansion Module
Operation and Installation Instructions:
Basics:
PICO S8 is designed to monitor the output of up to 8 SPST switches (toggle,
rocker, momentary, etc.) and signal the Lumitec POCO Digital Lighting Control
System (POCO 3 or greater) when a switch is flipped, pressed, or released.
POCO can be configured to use the signal from the PICO S8 to trigger any pre-
set digital command to its connected lights. This means that, with the PICO
S8, a mechanical switch can be given full digital control over Lumitec lights.
Mounting:
Secure PICO S8 to the desired surface with the provided #6 mounting screws.
Use Mounting Template provided to pre-drill pilot holes. Most applications
will require a drill bit sized larger than the minimum screw diameter but
smaller than the maximum thread diameter. When choosing where to mount the
PICO S8, consider proximity to the POCO and to the switches. When possible,
minimize the length of wire runs. Also consider the visibility of the
indicator LED on the PICO S8, which can be useful during the setup to
determine the status of the S8.
Configuration
Enable and set up the S8 under the “Automation” tab in the POCO configuration menu. For instructions on how to connect to the POCO and how to access the configuration menu, see: lumiteclighting.com/pocoquick-start/ Up to four PICO S8 modules can be configured to one POCO. Support for the PICO S8 module must first be enabled in the POCO menu, then slots for S8 modules can be individually enabled and discovered. Once discovered, each switch wire on the PICO S8 can be defined with an Input Signal Type (toggle or momentary) and Output Signal Type for the optional control of an indicator LED. With the wires defined, each wire shows up on the list of triggers for action inside POCO. An action links any switch already set up inside the POCO menu to an external trigger or triggers. POCO supports up to 32 different actions. Once an action is saved and appears on the list of actions in the Automation tab, it becomes active and POCO will activate the assigned internal switch when the assigned external trigger is detected.
