center for the arts university towson university Benjamin Mitten Spring 2005 Controls Type of controls used in spaces - Photocells (Daylight Control) - Automated Occupant Control - Occupancy Sensors (Manual Dimming and Shut-off) - Single Standard Switch (with indicating light) Intro Paint Studio Lobby Controls Mechanical Conclusion

center for the arts university towson university Benjamin Mitten Spring 2005 Controls Use of the system - Up to 64 Ballasts on a power supply - Each ballast is digitally programmed to respond/”speak” to certain control sensors. Photocells, etc. - Reprogramming an entire floor is easy and does not need to be rewired. (Extremely practical for open office use where reconfiguration of the space may occur) - Each ballast in the power supply loop can respond to any sensor in the loop - Easily reprogrammable - Sensors simply plug into ballasts Intro Paint Studio Lobby Controls Mechanical Conclusion Connection from direct components
