6. Figure 39 Example of a meeting room application The majority of meeting rooms use scene setting to define their lighting level with the further ability to raise and lower lighting from these scenes The example above shows a typical meeting room that is big enough to require two occupancy sensors and five light control channels for full coverage The example meeting room also includes HVAC and blind control via a KNX gateway Some applications require each of the luminaires to be individually addressed to give the maximum scene flexibility but the majority will have four well defined scenes for the room In the example the corner spots 3 4 and 6 are on channel and spots 2 and 5 on channel 2 The board lighting has channel 3 as it will be switched ON and OFF separately The fluorescent lights 2 7 and 8 have channel 4 whereas lights 3 4 5 and 6 take the final channel 5 This allows for a special scene for projector use where the lights graduate from OFF at the front to a higher level at the back of the room It also allows for half the room to be used for smaller meetings Philips LightMaster 62 Solution Design Possible functions in this example are e Upon entering the room the default scene is started This could be for example to have all fluorescent lights come ON at 40 to give a general background level or to arrange for only 2 7 and 8 to switch ON giving the front of the room operation for smaller meetings e The o

IGHTING SAVING ENERGY TIME gt Figure 2 Maintained Illuminance Cycle Daylight Harvesting Daylight harvesting is a control strategy using a PE Photo Electric sensor which measure illuminance This helps to keep a constant light level in all situations where natural light is available When there is little or no daylight the luminaires produce the required light level When there is enough daylight available the luminaires may dim or be switched OFF completely Daylight control can be used in combination with other control functions such as manual control or occupancy control For more information refer to Combined Control Daylight sensing To apply daylight control a daylight sensor must be used The daylight sensor reads the actual average luminance The intensity of the luminance depends on the amount of artificial and or daylight in the room as well as on how well this light is reflected towards the sensor The light reflection depends highly on the colors and materials chosen to furnish the office For accurate measurement and regulation it is important to calibrate the light sensor For the procedure to calibrate the daylight sensor refer to the LightMaster Commissioning Guide Philips LightMaster 33 Ways of Control 42 5 2 Control Modes There are two types of daylight harvesting each type can be used independently or combined e daylight switching e daylight regulation 4 2 5 3 Daylight switching S
