HBMS8SS Lighting Integrator BMS Interface Module Installation and Setup Santa Clara, C 95050 The Building Management System Interface Module (HBMS8SS) provides an intelligent interface to other building systems, such as HVC or Security. The HBMS8SS (BMS Interface Module) is used instead of a Network Clock (HCLK8SS) to provide smart control scenarios for up to eight global lighting groups (channels) in the Lighting Integrator (LI) network. Instead of scheduling channels itself (like the HCLK8SS), the BMS Interface accepts input from an external system to signal whether that group is Occupied or Unoccupied. For example, in some retail applications, it may be more convenient to turn on lighting when the security system is disabled just as staff arrives. From a simple contact closure, the BMS Interface automatically applies the proven control scenarios selected during setup.

OPETION In a Lighting Integrator system, relays and their lighting loads may be smartwired or grouped for common control to one of eight channels in the relay panel, or to the button of a dataline switch. hen there is no automation module (either a Network Clock or BMS Interface Module) in the network, relays may be controlled manually by a wall switch, automatically by a sensor, or by an interface to some other system. hen the BMS Interface Module (or Network Clock*) is added to the system, the eight channels -H have the capability to become global or system-wide automation groups. elays grouped to Channel in Panel 01, and relays grouped to Channel in Panel 02, can be controlled as a single global group. n automation scenario can be assigned to any channel. To choose a scenario, ask the following questions: Is it an interior or exterior space? Do occupants turn lights on, or should lights turn on automatically? Do occupants need to be warned when lights are about to turn off? Should exterior light stays on all night, or turn off after the building is closed? On the HBMS8SS, each channel has its own connection to an external source such as the HVC system, security system, or some other source of scheduling input with both input contacts and status feedback contacts. The input contacts are user-definable, and through a simple contact closure provide Occupied or Unoccupied status to the BMS Interface Module. ith this information, the HBMS8SS will control the lighting based on the smart scenarios selected by the user. Since there are a total of eight global channels, careful thought must be given to which groups of relays share common scheduling and automation scenarios. * Only one Network Clock or BMS Interface Module can be used in a single Lighting Integrator network to provide smart control scenarios. If the HBMS8SS module is the primary controller, an HCLK8SS Clock Module should not be connected to the dataline, but may be used in Programming mode to program dataline switches. UTOMTION SCENIOS Each channel may be assigned any one of four different automation scenarios as follows: Interior Lighting Scenario 1: Scheduled ON/OFF (Interior Lighting) elays smartwired to channels assigned this scenario will turn on whenever the channel s input contact signals. Occupied", and off when it signals Unoccupied. s an option, the lights will blink to alert occupants five minutes before the lights turn off. ny HDLS series dataline switch button controlling affected relays will also begin to flash. Pressing the switch button will stop the flashing and start a timed delay for that relay, overriding the off command. n egress delay up to 4 hours may also be set for the channel. Data required by the BMS Interface Module: Override time delay (in 10-minute increments, up to 4 hours) B Blink arn? es/no C Egress Time (in 10-minute increments, up to 4 hours) D Define Occupied for Input Contact (Occupied = Open or Closed contact) E Define Status Contact (Closed contact = ny ON, ll ON, ll OFF, ny OFF) Scenario 2: Manual ON/Scheduled OFF (Interior Lighting lternate) elays smartwired to channels assigned this scenario will not turn on until turned on by an occupant, even if the channel s input contact signals Occupied. During "Unoccupied" periods, this scenario acts the same as Scenario 1 and requires the same data input. Exterior Lighting The following two scenarios for exterior lighting appear automatically as menu selections in the HBMS8SS when an HPCU8SS Photocell Control Module is connected to the system. Programming scenarios for the channels is still done through the HBMS8SS. The Photocell Control Module receives actual light level data from the HPS Photocell Sensor mounted on the building s roof and wired to the HPCU8SS. (For testing, a simulated light level function is available.) For details on the Photocell Control Module, refer to the installation instructions HPCU8. Scenario 3: Dark ON/OFF (Exterior Lighting Security) elays smartwired to channels assigned this scenario will turn on when it is dark outside and turn off when it is light. Dark is defined by the user in footcandles. Typical settings for security lighting are from 2 to 20 fc. Data required by the BMS Interface Module: Define Dark from 2 to 200 fc B Define Status Contact (Closed contact = ny ON, ll ON, ll OFF, ny OFF) Scenario 4: Dark ON/Scheduled OFF (Exterior Lighting Parking Lots, Signs) Typical settings for Parking Lot lighting are from 2 to 20 fc, and for Signage, 20 to 200 fc. Egress Time is the delay between the Unoccupied signal and the time the lights should actually turn off. It is used to allow safe exit for the last building occupants. Data required by the BMS Interface Module: Egress Time (in 10-minute increments up to 4 hours) B Define Dark from 2 to 200 fc C Define Occupied for Input Contact (Occupied = Open or Closed contact) D Define Status Contact (Closed contact = ny ON, ll ON, ll OFF, ny OFF) 2

There is one panel per floor, and each panel contains 16 relays controlling open office space and 4 relays controlling hallways and common areas. There are also 4 relays for exterior security lighting, and 6 for parking lot lighting and signage in panel 01. The sample documentation forms on page 4 summarize the data entry required by the BMS Interface Module and indicate how relays are associated with channels. Channel is assigned a Manual ON/Scheduled OFF scenario for open office areas. In these areas, lights will be turned on by occupants upon arrival, and off when the channel goes Unoccupied. 2-hour timed override will be in effect during unoccupied times. Channel B is assigned a Scheduled ON/Scheduled OFF scenario for hallways and common areas. In these areas, lighting will be turned on and off based on the occupied/unoccupied input to the channel. 2-hour timed override will be in effect during unoccupied times. Channel C is assigned a Dark ON/ OFF scenario for exterior security lighting. This lighting depends only on actual light levels outside, as measured by the Photocell Sensor and sent through the Photocell Control Module. Lighting will turn ON when it is dark and OFF when it is light outside, regardless of building occupancy. Channel D is assigned a Dark ON/Scheduled OFF scenario for parking lot lighting and signage. Non-security exterior lighting depends on actual light levels outside, as well as building occupancy. The lights will turn ON when it is dark if the building is occupied, and will turn OFF when it is light, or when the building becomes unoccupied. 1-hour egress delay allows safe exit for building occupants. In some applications, such as a retail store, signage may be turned off when the store closes, well-before parking lot lighting turns off. In this case, parking and signage should be assigned to separate channels (for example: D and E) to allow for different treatment.

DOCUMENTING UTOMTION SCENIOS ND ELS Before proceeding with any smartwiring or programming, it is necessary to complete system documentation. First, complete the BMS Interface Module utomation Scenarios form, recording which scenario will be assigned to each channel (Figure 2). Then, record the relays in each panel to be associated with those channels on the elay Schedule form (Figure 3). relay should only be associated with one automation channel. Both forms are in the Documentation section of the Lighting Integrator panel Installation and Operation Manual. Figure 2 BMS Interface Module utomaton Scenario Form Figure 3 elay Schedule Form 4
INSTLLTION ND SMTIING hen both the BMS Interface Module utomation Scenarios form and the elay Schedule form are complete, begin the HBMS8SS installation as follows. Step 1: Install the BMS Interface Module The HBMS8SS snaps onto the DIN rail in any LI relay panel. (There is a release clip on the bottom of the module.) Identify the panel where the inputs from other systems will be connected, and snap the BMS Interface Module onto its DIN rail.

Input Contacts: ed/hite 2-wire maintained dry contact input Status Contacts: ellow/ellow atings: 1 mp, 24 VC Note: Default settings for the scenario (Scheduled ON/OFF) and Input Contact (Closed = Occupied) may cause the system to respond when the input contact is connected. Step 3: Smartwire Each elay to its ssociated Channel If this has not already been done during installation of the relay panels, smartwire relays to their associated channels as shown in Figure 5, referring to the elay Schedule form as shown in Figure 3. Step 4: Connect the BMS Interface Module and Enter Data Plug the attached cable into the LOCL DTLINE connector on the utomation Card in any LI panel. This provides power and data connections to the BMS Interface. During the power-up sequence, the screen will display the firmware version number of the unit. lso, the LEDs on the face of the unit will turn first ed, then Green, then Off.

The red channel LED will begin to flash. If any relays are currently controlled by that channel, their LEDs will begin to flash as well. 2 Select the relays to be controlled. The LED for each relay smartwired to the channel input selected will be flashing on/off. Press the associated elay Control Button to add/delete that relay to/from the group. 3 Press the Channel Push Button again. The LEDs will stop flashing and the channel will now control the relays selected. Test by pressing the Channel Push Button to toggle the group on/off/on. The channel LED will track the last action. Now turn off each relay in the group using the individual elay Control Buttons. hen the last relay is turned off, the channel LED should also go off. 5
CHNNEL STTUS fter power-up, the screen will display the current states of the 8 global channels on the network as shown below. + ll relays ON ll relays OFF M Mixed state (some ON, some OFF) (Blank) Channel not smartwired to any relays The LEDs for each channel on the face of the BMS Interface Module may also light up. LED indication reflects the states associated with the input contacts, and not the actual state of the channels (actual composite channel state is shown on the Channel Status screen). Channel Input LEDs on the face of the BMS Interface Module indicate: Flashing ed Channel in Program mode Steady ed Input Contact is Closed Off Input Contact is Open Steady Green Channel in Egress Delay THE HBMS8SS KEPD The BMS Interface Module s keypad is composed of three keys as follows: UP and DON keys for modifying data fields. NEXT key which confirms data entries and advances to the next appropriate screen or data field. Channel Status Screen Channel Button & Channel Input LED DT ENT Data entry for the BMS Interface Module simply involves entering scenario data and defining the contacts for each channel, as documented on the BMS Interface Module utomation Scenarios form (see Figure 2 on page 4). Once that s been done, the module has all the information necessary to control the Lighting Integrator. To illustrate the data entry process, we ll use the actual data from the sample application defined on page 3 and shown in Figure 1. INTEIO LIGHTING Channel Manual ON/Scheduled OFF To begin programming a channel, press and hold the channel button on the face of the BMS Interface Module. The LED above the button begins to flash ED and the screen displays: Scenario for Man ON/Sch OFF The field that can be modified, in this case the scenario choice in the second line, will be flashing. Use the UP or DON key to toggle the scenario between Sch ON/ OFF and Man ON/Sch OFF. If a Photocell Control Module is also connected to the system, the Dark ON/OFF and Dark ON/ Sch OFF scenarios will also be available. hen the correct scenario appears on screen, press the NEXT key to select that choice and advance to the next screen Time Delay: 120 Minutes Use the UP or DON key to enter the length of the override Time Delay (in 10- minute increments up to 240 minutes) for relays smartwired to this channel. hen correct, press NEXT. Blink arn? ES Use the UP or DON key to toggle between ES or NO to enable or disable the Blink arn feature. hen ready, press NEXT Egress Time: 000 Minutes Set the Egress Time in the same way using the UP or DON key. (000 for none, 001 for test, 010 to 240 in 10- minute increments). For channel in this example, no egress time is desired, so leave the flashing field at 000 and press NEXT. Contact Definition Once the scenario data has been entered, the final step in channel programming is to define the properties of the Input Contact coming from the BMS or other system, and the Status Contact reporting back to the BMS, pilot light or other system Input Contact: Closed =Occupied The Input Contact is defined as either Open or Closed (dry contact, maintained see Figure 4 on page 5) to indicate that the lighting controlled by this channel should be considered Occupied. Toggle between these choices using the UP or DON key. hen the correct option is flashing, press NEXT to select and advance to the next screen. 6
Status Contact: Closed=ny On The Status Contact can also be defined depending on what feedback is required by the BMS system. Choices for the Closed contact definition include: ny ON (when any relays in any Channel in any panel are on, the status contact will be closed) ll ON (every relay in every Channel must be on for the status contact to be closed) ll OFF (every relay in every Channel must be off for the status contact to be closed) ny OFF (when any relays in any Channel in any panel are off, the status contact will be closed) Programming for Channel is now complete. Press NEXT to SVE Channel Program Changes. (If you need to start over, use the UP or DON key to change SVE to CNCEL and press NEXT.) SVE Channel Program Changes Saving Channel fter a brief message, the BMS Interface Module will return to its main Channel Status Screen. Channel B Scheduled ON/OFF The data entry procedure for Channel B in our example follows the same steps as Channel. EXTEIO LIGHTING Photocell Control Module The two Dark scenarios only appear as options in the BMS Interface Module when the HPCU8SS Photocell Control Module is connected to the dataline. For detailed instructions on wiring the HPCU8SS and its associated HPS Photocell Sensor, refer to HPCP8 instructions for those units. Channel C Dark ON/OFF The security lighting associated with Channel C in our example is to turn on every night and turn off every morning. In this example, Dark is defined as 20 footcandles. Begin programming Channel C as before, by pressing and holding the button marked C on the face of the BMS Interface Module. Scenario for Dark ON The scenario choice in the second line, will be flashing. Using the UP or DON key, toggle through the scenario choices until Dark ON is displayed. Press NEXT: Dark=(2-200fc) C 020 The flashing second line will prompt for a footcandle setting from 002 to 200 in 1 fc increments. Press the UP or DON key to scroll through the numbers until the desired footcandle level is reached (Hint: Hold down the UP or DON key to scroll continuously). Press NEXT: ith the Dark ON/OFF scenario, there is no need for an Input Contact since there is no reference to building occupancy. The only criterion for lights turning ON or OFF is exterior light level. (Security lighting will turn on when it s dark, whether the building is occupied or not). C Set the definition of the Status Contact for Channel C as before and press NEXT. Press NEXT again to SVE programming for Channel C, or use the UP or DON key to toggle to CNCEL and start again. Channel D Dark ON/Scheduled OFF Parking lot lighting should turn ON when it is dark and turn OFF after the building is unoccupied. ith this scenario, the lighting will only be turned on if the building is occupied and it is dark. gain, we defined dark in this example as 20 fc. n egress delay allows the parking lot lighting to stay on for a defined period of time after the building goes unoccupied, to allow safe exit for occupants. Scenario for D Dark ON /Sch OFF To program this scenario, press and hold channel button D on the face of the BMS Interface Module. The scenario line will be flashing as before. Using the UP or DON key, toggle through the scenario choices until Dark ON/Sch OFF is displayed. Press NEXT. Egress Time: 060 Minutes Using the UP or DON key, set the Egress Delay time for Channel D for 000, 001, or from 010-240 minutes in 10 minute increments. In this example, the egress delay is one hour, or 060 minutes. Press NEXT. s in the previous example, the flashing second line will prompt for a footcandle setting from 002 to 200 fc. Use the UP or DON key to scroll through the numbers until the desired footcandle level is reached. Press NEXT. Set the definition of the Input and Status Contacts for Channel D as shown in the Channel example and press NEXT. Choose SVE or CNCEL and press NEXT. D 7
TESTING hen data entry is complete, be sure to return to the Channel Status screen. The BMS Interface Module must be displaying this screen for the scenarios to operate properly. B C D E F G H + M - - Using the elay Schedule forms, confirm that the correct relays are smartwired to each channel in their panels. Confirm that each channel in the BMS Interface Module program has the proper scenario entries and contact definitions. For each channel, press the button on the face of the unit and sequence through the entries using the NEXT key to verify that all data has been entered correctly. hen you have confirmed the data for each channel, you can run a real-time test using input from the BMS system. Or simulate the BMS input for each channel by using a two-wire maintained switch to open or close the contacts and observe how the channel responds. For the two Dark (exterior lighting) scenarios, detailed procedures for testing using the Photocell Control Module are included in the instructions for the HPCP8.
