echoflex ELED1H LED Fixture Controller Installation Guide

Overview

The LED Fixture Controller (240-347 VAC) (ELED1H) provides wireless control of an individual fixture or single zone lighting based on occupancy state, manual switch action, ambient light levels, and gateway commands.
This document covers installation of all the ELED1H models. The Echoflex LED Fixture Controller ELED1(H) Configuration Guide is available for download at echoflexsolutions.com.
The product package includes the controller and the installation guide.

Prepare for Installation

To ensure optimal function, consider the installation environment and the following guidelines:

Avoid spaces with high density construction materials and large metal appliances or fixtures as they may disrupt wireless reception.
For optimal performance, switches and sensors should be installed within a 24 m (80 ft) unobstructed view of the controller. Consider adding a repeater to extend the wireless signal, if required.
Mount the controller to an electrical junction box (preferably non- metallic) or a panel in a location and at a height where it is not subject to tampering by unauthorized unauthorized
Make sure the antenna wire is unrestricted and not in contact with any metal surface

Supplies required to install the controller (not provided):

Appropriately sized wire nuts nuts
Wireinsulation insulation
Small cable ties ties

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! This device utilizes high voltage and should only be installed by a qualified installer or electrician. Follow all local codes for installation. Before terminating the AC power wiring verify that the main breaker is in the off position and follow the proper lockout/tag out procedures required by NFPA Standard 70E.

WARNING: For indoor use only! Must install to an electrical junction box or wireway

This product is suitable for use in dry locations where the ambient temperature is -5°C to 50°C (23°F to 122°F).
Do not use outdoors.
Do not mount near gas or electric heaters.
Equipment should be mounted in locations and at heights where it is not subject to tampering by unauthorized personnel.
The use of accessory equipment not recommended by the manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition.
Do not use this equipment for other than its intended use.
Servicing should be performed by qualified service personnel.
Pollution Degree: 2.

Installation

Ensure that the junction box is clean and free of obstructions and that all wiring is installed correctly. Review these instructions completely before installing the controller.

Note: Follow applicable NEC and local electrical code requirements when installing and powering the controller.

Install the Controller

The controller can be mounted directly to the exterior of the junction box or panel either at the electrical load or before the load in the circuit.

Locate the circuit breaker panel and terminate power to the circuit.
Remove the cover plate and other hardware from the junction box to access the wiring.
Mount the controller.
Refer to the Wiring Diagram below to connect the controller to line power, neutral, and load wires. Use wire nuts on all connections and individually cap any bare wires, except the orange antenna wire.
Connect the gray and the violet wires to the driver or ballast’s dimming interface (optional).
Replace the electrical box cover plate and restore power to the circuit.

Note: The USB port is for factory use only. Do not attach cables or accessories to this port.

Electrical Terminations

Power to the controller is connected between the white (neutral) and the black line power (240–347 VAC). The Class 1 power limited dimming lines (violet and gray wires) can be used to provide 0–10 V intensity control of a dimming ballast or LED driver. The orange wire is an antenna. Do not cut, cap, or connect this wire. Use only UL-approved wire when making connections to the controller.

Connection	Color	Specification
Load	Red	14 AWG, 600 V
Neutral	White	14 AWG, 600 V
Line 240–347 VAC	Black	14 AWG, 600 V
Dimming 0–10 V	Violet	18 AWG, 600 V
Dimming COM	Gray	18 AWG, 600 V

User Interface

Note: Garibaldi Pro software is the ideal tool to set up your project and configure settings, or even to make edits if your project has been pre- commissioned. Garibaldi Pro is available for download at echoflexsolutions.com

Two buttons on the controller can be used to activate features and set specific configurations directly on the device. Two LEDs beside the buttons provide feedback about stored information and activities.

Learn Button

The [Learn] button initiates Link mode for manually linking compatible Echoflex devices to the controller. See the relevant switch or sensor documentation for information on linking. Link mode times out after 60 seconds of inactivity.
Devices can be linked to a controller manually, using Garibaldi Pro, or during the Echoflex pre-commissioning process.

Remote Linking Solution

Use the following method to link the first switch if you cannot access the [Learn] button on a controller that has not been pre-commissioned and you do not have Garibaldi Pro software.
This method only works if there are no switches linked to the controller. You cannot link a scene station using this method.

Ensure you are within wireless range of the controller and have a wireless paddle switch.
a. If the controller has a linked sensor, you must press the [Teach] button on the sensor and complete step 2 within 60 seconds.
Click the switch paddle ON three times, OFF three times, and ON three times quickly, for a total of nine consecutive clicks. The relay will toggle and the Power LED will indicate the switch is linked.

Clear Button

The [Clear] button can be used to reset the controller either to its precommissioned state or to its factory default state.
To reset to pre-commissioned state:

Press and hold the [Clear] button until the red Power and green Learn LEDs start blinking.
Release the [Clear] button. The Power LED blink codes indicate the type and count of devices linked at pre-commissioning.

To reset to factory default state:

Press and hold the [Clear] button until the red Power and green Learn
LEDs start blinking, and continue to hold for 15 seconds until the
LEDs stay on solid.
Release the [Clear] button. The Power LED displays solid red to indicates factory default state.

Blink Indications

The tables below describe the LED codes that identify linked devices and the LED indications that describe linking activities.

Device Count Codes

The following codes provide a visible report of the devices that are linked to the controller. The Power LED repeats a code of blinks that represent the type and number of linked devices. Long blinks = type. Short blinks = count. If the controller does not have any linked devices, the Power LED remains on solid.

Device Type	Power LED	Learn LED
Switches	1 long blink followed by short blinks that count the switches	Off
Occupancy sensors	2 long blinks followed by short blinks that count the
sensors	Off
Photo sensor (maximum of 1)	3 long blinks followed by short blink that counts
the sensor	Off
Gateways and TimeClocks	4 long blinks followed by short blinks that count the
devices	Off
Demand response	5 long blinks followed by short blinks that count the
devices	Off
Entry door sensors	6 long blinks followed by short blinks that count the
sensors	Off
Window sensors	7 long blinks followed by short blinks that count the sensors

Keycard switches| 8 long blinks followed by short blinks that count the switches| Off

Linking Activities

Activity	Power LED	Learn LED	Light Response
Link mode	Blinking	On solid	Cycles ON and OFF
Store link ID	On for 4 seconds, and then blinking	On solid	ON for 4

seconds, and then cycles
Clear link ID| Off for 4 seconds, and then blinking| On solid| OFF for 4 seconds, and then cycles

Test the Controller

Echoflex provides the controller in either a pre-commissioned state or a factory default state.

Pre-commissioned devices are linked, configured, and labeled according to customer When powered up, the red Power LED repeats a blink code to indicate the type and number of devices currently linked to the controller. To test, press the [Learn] button or use a linked switch.
In factory default state, when powered up, the Power LED displays solid red to indicate the controller has no linked To test, press the [Learn] button or link a switch. See relevant switch documentation.
A maximum of 20 switches or sensors can be linked to one controller
