Dimming Dimming curve is adapted to the eye sensitiveness. Dimming range 0 % to 00 % Digital control with DSI signal: 8 bit Manchester Code Speed 0 % to 00 % in 0.8 s Control input (D, D) Digital DSI signal, push-to-make switch (switchdim) or a motion detector (corridorfunction) can be wired on the same terminals (D and D). Digital signal DSI The control input is non-polar and protected against accidental connection with a mains voltage up to 64 V. The control signal is not SELV. Control cable has to be installed in accordance to the requirements of low voltage installations. Different functions depending on each module. SMART interface An additional interface for the direct connection of the SMART-Sensor 5D 9f ) or corridorfunction plugs. Application and functionallity see corridorfunction user manual. SMART-Sensor 5D 9f ) light sensor operating mode: The sensor registers actual ambient light and maintains the individually defined constant lux level. After every mains reset the SMART interface automatically checks for an installed sensor. With the sensor installed the PCA TC BASIC y II automatically runs in the constant lux level mode. ON/OFF switch via mains, switchdim or DSI signal. DSI signal = 0 switches off, DSI signal switches on. With switchdim signals it is possible to change the controlled light level temporarily. Temporarily means that after a switching cycle OFF/ ON command the ballast will start at the preset value determined by the SAMRT-Sensor 5D 9f. The installation of the two wire bus is according to the appropriate low voltage regulations. ) SMART-Sensor 5D 9f: article number 8645969 switchdim Integrated switchdim function allows a direct connection of a push to make switch for dimming and switching. Brief push (< 0.6 s) switches ballast ON and OFF. The ballasts switch-on at light level set at switch-off. After switch ON the last settet dimming level will be activated again. When the push to make switch is held, PCA ballasts are dimmed. After repush the PCA is dimmed in the opposite direction. The switchdim fade time is s from min. to max. in the factory settings. In installations with PCAs with different dimming levels or opposite dimming directions (e.g. after a system extension), all PCAs can be synchronized to 50 % dimming level by a 0 s push. Use of push to make switch with indicator lamp is not permitted. switchdim and corridorfunction are very simple tools for controlling ballasts with conventional momentaryaction switches or motion sensors. To ensure correct operation a sinusoidal mains voltage with a frequency of 50 Hz or 60 Hz is required at the control input.

Serious mains faults may impair the operation of switchdim and corridorfunction. corridorfunction To activate the corridorfunction a voltage of 0 V simply has to be applied for five minutes at switchdim connection. The unit will then switch automatically to the corridorfunction. Note: If the corridorfunction is wrongly activated in a switchdim system (for example a switch is used instead of pushbutton), there is the option of installing a pushbutton and deactivating the corridorfunction mode by five short pushes of the button within three seconds. The corridorfunction offers the added benefit of a second and third preprogrammed profile, which can be activated by the corridorfunction plugs. It is also possible to combine the corridorfunction with the SMART-Sensor 5D 9f light sensor.

Measures can then be taken quickly to prevent damage to the control gear. Harmonic distortion in the mains supply (at 0 V / 50 Hz) If the mains voltage rises above approx. 8 Vrms (voltage depends on the ballast type), the lamp starts flashing on and off.

Wiring advice The lead length is dependent on the capacitance of the cable. Ballast Terminal Maximum capacitance allowed Type Cold Hot Cold Hot PCA xx TC BASIC Y II, 0, 00 pf 00 pf PCA xx TC BASIC Y II,, 4, 5 0,, 6, 7 00 pf 00 pf With standard solid wire 0.5/0.75 mm² the capacitance of the lead is 0 80 pf/m. This value is influenced by the way the wiring is made. Lamp connection should be made with symmetrical wiring. Hot leads (0,, 6, 7) and cold leads (,, 4, 5) should be separated as much as possible. When using two or more dimmable ballasts in one luminaire with separate dimming controls, the lamp leads must be kept separate. Sensor wires Sensor wires must be routed separately from the lamp wires and mains cables otherwise the lighting control system may malfunction. If separate routing is not possible (for reasons of space) shielded lamp wires and mains cables must be used. Dimmable ballasts from Tridonic have to be earthed. * leads 0, keep wires short, max..0 m leads, max..0 m; ballast must be earthed * * digital signal DSI or switchdim PCA TC BASIC Y II x8 57 W D D * * control signal RFI Connection to the lamps of the hot leads must be kept as short as possible Mains leads should be kept apart from lamp leads (ideally 5 0 cm distance) Do not run mains leads adjacent to the electronic ballast Twist the lamp leads Keep the distance of lamp leads from the metal work as large as possible Mains wiring to be twisted when through wiring Keep the mains leads inside the luminaire as short as possible General advise Electronic ballasts are virtually noise free. Magnetic fields generated during the ignition cycle can cause some background noise but only for a few milliseconds. 5 6 0 For further technical information please visit www.tridonic.com D D 5 6 0 4 5 6 7 * leads 0,, 6, 7 keep wires short, max..0 m leads,, 4, 5 max..0 m; ballast must be earthed * * digital signal DSI or switchdim PCA TC BASIC Y II x8 4 W Dimmable ballasts from Tridonic have to be earthed. Operation on DC voltage Our ballasts are construed to operate DC voltage and pulsed DC voltage. To operate ballasts with pulsed DC voltage the polarity is absolute mandatory. + D 5 D 6 * * control signal Isolation and electric strength testing of luminaires Electronic devices can be damaged by high voltage. This has to be considered during the routine testing of the luminaires in production. According to IEC 60598- Annex Q (informative only!) or ENEC 0-Annex A, each luminaire should be submitted to an isolation test with 500 V DC for second. This test voltage should be connected between the interconnected phase and neutral terminals and the earth terminal. The isolation resistance must be at least MΩ. As an alternative, IEC 60598- Annex Q describes a test of the electrical strength with 500 V AC (or.44 x 500 V DC). To avoid damage to the electronic devices this test must not be conducted. Glow-wire test according to EN 60598-650 C, 750 C and 850 C passed www.tridonic.com 0
