Square D Clipsal Outdoor Light-Level Sensor 63249-420-231A3 Instruction Bulletin 11/2007 CALIBRATING THE LIGHT-LEVEL SENSOR The light-level sensor must be calibrated in order to achieve the desired illumination level. Two methods for calibrating the light-level sensor are given below; one for sensors used indoors and outdoors, the other for sensors used indoors. Both methods use the C-Bus Toolkit software. NOTE: 1000 lux is approximately equivalent to 100 foot-candles. Calibrating the Sensor (Indoor or Outdoor Use) To calibrate the light-level sensor for indoor or outdoor use, you will use a pre-determined illumination value. NOTE: It might be necessary to adjust the settings to account for the difference in ambient light present on the sensor and that at the working surface. These differences can arise from the physical location of the sensor, the sensor's proximity to light sources, or shadows or diffusion effects. 1. Determine the preferred level of illumination in lux or footcandles. 2. In the C-Bus Toolkit software, open the user interface for the SLC5031PEWP. 3. Set the lux/foot-candle value by using the slider bar called "Target Lux/Foot-candle" (top right side of the program window). 4. Set the "Margin" slider to approximately 10% of the target lux/foot-candle. 5. Download the settings to the sensor unit. 16 2007 Schneider Electric. All Rights Reserved.
