1-10V - Philips Lighting

1. What is the ActiLume 1-10V System
The ActiLume 1-10V System is a new easy to install
and easy to use fluorescent lighting dimming system,
implemented as a part of a luminaire-based solution. It
is suitable for offices, schools, etc. and offers maximum
comfort and automatic energy/CO 2 savings. ActiLume
1-10V System can switch the artificial lights in an office
automatically on and off based on occupancy and dims the
luminaires (artificial lights) when enough daylight (natural
light) enters the room.
Although the ActiLume 1-10V System is intended to
be used as a Plug-and-Play system, in some cases it is
necessary to do some minor commissioning (re-adjusting)
of the system. Commissioning is done by means of a small
screwdriver in order to adjust the light level and/or the
occupancy detection timing. This will set the artificial light
according to the architect’s requested light level and based
on the occupancy detection timing will switch the controller
off or will dim down the lights. This means installers
and end-users do not have to worry about complicated
programming anymore.
The ActiLume 1-10V System consists of a sensor (which
can also be used as a stand alone system) and a control
unit (SwitchBox) designed to be built in to a luminaire. The
sensor contains two functions (a light sensor for daylight
harvesting and a movement detector for occupancy
control). The lighting can also be controlled manually by a
wired switch with a momentary contact (Touch and Dim).
The system is operated with Philips Advance 0-10V ballasts
or drivers including, Mark 7 0-10V, EssentiaLine 0-10V,
Xitanium, and eVision. Moreover, the light output of the
luminaire is already pre-defined according to the setting of
the diaphragm on the sensor.
The ActiLume 1-10V System is a truly Plug-and-Play lighting
control system and can be installed in one simple step. The
luminaires are connected and mounted in the ceiling. By
rotating the diaphragm the required light level can be set.
This setting is then copied to the other luminaires to have
the same setting. The system is now ready for use.
