SENSOR OPERATION
The sensor controls the room’s lighting to achieve maximum daylight harvesting
while maintaining a minimum light level referred to as the set-point. When
no daylight is available, the sensor allows the controlled dimmable lighting to
operate at their full bright level. As daylight increases and begins to contribute to
the overall light level of the room, the Automatic Dimming Control (ADC) feature
starts dimming the room proportionally,
eventually reaching the full dim level (or
AMPLE DAYLIGHT
optionally switching off).
As the daylight levels fall, the ADC
feature will again take control of the
lights; reducing the dim level (increasing
the brightness) in order to achieve the
necessary total light level. At the point
when all daylight contribution is gone,
lighting will be back at its full bright level.

classrooms, or offices, the sensor works
by first monitoring daylight conditions in
a room. It then signals networked nLight
control devices to adjust their dimming outputs to obtain maximum energy savings
while ensuring adequate lighting levels are maintained. The nRM ADCX can
control nLight enabled luminaires (e.g. VTLED Family from Lithonia), or nLight
dimming relay packs (e.g. nPP16 D or nSP5 PCD), or auxiliary dimming output
devices (e.g. nIO D). The nRM ADCX sensor can also be used together with
nLight occupancy sensors. Manual override or adjustment of the dimming level is
possible via WallPod dimmers or through the SensorView software.

switches, relay packs, nLight-enabled
digital luminaires, and occupancy
sensors. All devices are wired using CAT-5e cabling; creating a local nLight
control zone. Once linked to an nLight Gateway, either directly or via an nLight
network backbone, the zone becomes capable of remote status monitoring, time
scheduling, configuration, and control with nLight SensorView software.

INSTALLATION
• The nRM ADCX is designed to fit inside a 4” square junction
box* (min. box depth 2.125”). The sensor can also be recessed
mounted in a ceiling tile.
• Interconnect unit (via rear RJ-45 ports) with other nLight devices
in lighting zone using CAT-5e cables.
• Once power is received via CAT-5e connection, all devices in
zone will automatically begin functioning together according to
each device’s defaults.
PUSH BUTTON
*Canadian style boxes w/ two screws
per mounting tab require modification.
PROGRAMMING
Refer to included instruction card for default settings and directions on programming the sensor via the push-button.
