GETTING STARTED
Overview
The Dry Contact Input Interface (DCII) is designed to deliver an enhanced occupant experience in a space by enabling integrations between Encelium Light Management System and third-party systems.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Wired Installation
The DCII is a GreenBus device and is wired using the 2-wire input/output cables in a daisy chain wiring scheme. It can be located in a ceiling or in AV closets depending on the application.
Diagram Description: A diagram illustrates a wired installation setup. It shows a User Interface, Sensor, Controller, DCII, Wired Manager, and SSU (System Status Unit) connected in a daisy-chain configuration. The connections are color-coded: Ethernet (blue), GreenBus (purple), and Dimming (green). The DCII is depicted as part of this network, typically installed in a ceiling or AV closet.

- Ethernet: Blue
- GreenBus: Purple
- Dimming: Green
Wireless Installation
In a wireless system, the DCII is tethered from the GreenBus ports on the load controllers (WCM or WALC).
Diagram Description: A diagram illustrates a wireless installation setup. It shows a User Interface, Sensor, Controller, DCII, Wireless Manager, and SSU. The DCII is connected wirelessly, tethered to load controllers (not explicitly shown but implied by the description). Connections shown are Ethernet (blue) and GreenBus (purple).

MOUNTING OPTIONS
The DCII can be mounted in three different ways.
Visuals show three mounting options: Screw Mount, Adhesive Mount, and DIN Rail Clip Mount.
1. Screw Mount
The Dry Contact Input Interface may be screwed directly to a wall surface.
Diagram Description: A diagram shows the DCII being attached to a vertical surface (wall) using a screw.
Note: Screws are not provided and are to be sourced by the installer.
2. Adhesive Mount
Attach the adhesive to the back of the device by removing adhesive backing from both adhesives and press the device onto a flat, clean surface with pressure for 30 seconds.
Diagram Description: A diagram illustrates the process of peeling off adhesive backing from the DCII and pressing it firmly onto a flat surface.
3. Clip Mount
Remove one liner from both adhesive strips and press on to the DIN rail clip for 30 seconds. Then mount the DIN rail clip to the DIN rail.
Diagram Description: A diagram shows adhesive backing being removed from the DCII, adhering it to a clip mount, and then attaching this clip mount assembly to a standard DIN rail.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
1. GreenBus
The GreenBus wires must be used with proprietary connectors supplied. Insert the connectors to the DCII GB ports.
GreenBus must be laid out as per supplied system layout drawing. If changes are required, determine an optimum wiring path utilizing the supplied cables, based on the position of the devices.
Diagram Description: A diagram shows the GreenBus connection. It illustrates inserting proprietary connectors into the DCII's GB ports. The recommended wire strip length is indicated as 0.27 inch (7 mm).
2. Third-Party to the DCII
Connect the wires from the third-party system to the DCII using solid core wire with recommended strip length of 0.2 inch (5 mm). Push the wires in the terminal blocks for full engagement.
Diagram Description: A diagram shows the DCII's terminal blocks. Two wires (typically red and black for polarity) are shown inserted into the terminal block for connection from a third-party system.
Wire Removal
To remove the wires, use a flat head screwdriver to release the wires from the terminal blocks.
Diagram Description: A diagram shows a flat head screwdriver being inserted into a release tab on the terminal block to disengage and remove a wire.
