Purple: 0-10V positive | Pink: 0-10V common NOTE: The National Electrical Code requires that low-voltage wiring used in the same enclosure as high-voltage wiring have an equal or better insulation rating. You may need to complete your low-voltage wiring in another enclosure or use a partition. Setup & Installation (cont'd) 2b At Lighting Panel or Trough NEUTRAL / PHASE B LINE / PHASE A Space and code allowing, you may install Lightcloud devices directly in your breaker box or lighting panel. Alternatively, break out lighting circuits and install Lightcloud devices in a separate trough. ! Controller requires constant, unswitched power. DON'T DO POWER POWER OFF When power switch is set to OFF Controller is disconnected from network LOAD Controller always has power and is connected to the network LOAD Setup & Installation (cont'd) 3 Labeling Your Device When installing devices, it's important to keep track of their Device IDs, installation locations, panel/circuit #s, dimming function, and any additional notes. To organize this information, use the Lightcloud Installer Application (A) or Device Table (B). 3a Lightcloud Installer Application Install the LC Installer Application: LC Installer is available for iOS & Android. Scan & Install Lightcloud Devices: Scan each device and assign to a room. It's recommended that each device is scanned just before or just after being wired so no devices are missed. The more notes that are given, the easier it is to commission the system.

REPEATER: Extends the Lightcloud mesh network without controlling a load. TRIGGER: Detect when an attached circuit is open or closed. For example, you could attach the Controller in Trigger mode to an existing occupancy sensor to allow your Lightcloud system to react to the sensor. OCCUPANCY LOCAL: Use an attached sensor to control the Controllers load. OCCUPANCY CUSTOM: Use an attached sensor to control the load of any Zone in the Lightcloud site. ADVANCED TRIGGER: Designed to use a third-party occupancy sensor to detect occupancy without that sensor directly controlling the lights. Controller will function as an occupancy sensor in this mode. BLACK WHITE Sensor 347/480 VAC WHITE 347/480V BLACK BLACK/ WHITE STRIPED RED Lightcloud® Controller TRIGGER SENSE (BROWN) PURPLE PINK RED BLACK Load or Fixture POWER MEASUREMENT: The Lightcloud Controller is capable of measuring the power usage of the attached circuit.
