The Supervisor Control Unit by Beghelli (code 12131C) is a device used for the centralised con-
trol of normal and emergency lighting systems. It controls and supervises up to 31 Logica
Control Units by Beghelli via a RS485 bus (control unit code 12100C), and each control unit, in
its turn, can handle up to 128 normal and emergency luminaires on a DALI bus, according to
IEC60929.
It can also be used with centralised battery lighting/emergency systems, interfacing with the ups
units via bus RS232_B and with NEA systems, up to 63 NEALOG (code 16318) via bus RS485;
each control unit, in its turn, can handle up to 64 NEA luminaires.
The Control Unit consists of:
- eyboard + display for user operations;
- RS485 interface for connections to Logica Control Units by Beghelli (code 12100);
- RS485 interface for Supervisor Unit remote control via PC or modem connection;
- RS232 interface that can be connected to the Logica DIN RS232 serial printer by Beghelli (code
12099);
- ethernet interface to enable the use of the device with a LAN network;
- USB interface for software updates.
The Supervisor Control Unit performs the following tasks:
SYSTEM MONITORING
The Supervisor Control Unit keeps the connected Logica (or Nealog) Control Units under perma-
nent supervision, detects and reports any Control Unit/ luminaire malfunction.
SYSTEM CONTROL
The Supervisor Control Unit allows the user to adjust the brightness of the luminaires, perform
Functional and Autonomy tests on the system emergency luminaires, set Test times and fre-
quency. etc...
KEEPING A LOGBOOK
The Supervisor Control Unit tracks test outcomes and, in general, any relevant operation in the
system.
If a printer is available (code 12099) this information can be regularly printed on paper; if the-
re is a USB flash drive connected, the information can be saved in the form of files and if a PC
connection is available, this information can be sent and saved on a computer.
The Supervisor Control Unit can store information related to a period of about two years; it will
then start deleting older logs to make space for new data (the stated time refers to a system of
4000 luminaires, with Functional Tests performed every 15 days and Autonomy tests performed
every 6 months; smaller systems with different Test frequencies will have a higher/lower log-
book duration).

SEARCHING FOR LOGICA CONTROL UNITS (NEW CONFIGURATION)
N.B.: before proceeding, make sure that a different address is set for each Logica Control Unit
installed and wired to the Supervisor Control Unit; to set an address for a Logica Control Unit,
refer to the “Logica Control Unit by Beghelli” manual.
N.B.: also check that the system configuration command has been executed on all Logica
Control Units installed and wired to the Supervisor Control Unit (see the “Logica Control Unit by
Beghelli” manual).
After completing these checks, launch the search procedure, which will make the Supervisor
Control Unit search for Logica Control Units connected to it.
N.B.: if the number of Logica Control Units found does not match the number of Control Units con-
nected to the Supervisor Control Unit, check the system wiring.
The same procedure applies for NEALOG devices (code 16318).
In this case, before initiating the configuration phase, search on the Supervisor Control Unit for the
Nea devices, proceeding as follows:
Maintenance B Ctrl Unit Mgt B NEA Ctrl Unit YES/NO B YES B
N.B.: Where applicable, the menu pages may also contain indications related to the NEA system.

N.B.: if the number of Logica Control Units found does not match the number of Control Units con-
nected to the Supervisor Control Unit, check the system wiring.
The same procedure applies when searching for NEALOG devices.
SCHEDULING FUNCTIONAL AND AUTONOMY TESTS
The Functional and Autonomy Tests are meant to check the emergency luminaires. Functional
Tests consist in turning on the luminaire for about 30 seconds and checking the luminaire light
source and battery efficiency; Autonomy Tests consist in turning on the luminaire for extended
periods of time and checking if the battery is still working. If the Tests reveal that the luminai-
re is faulty, this information will be transmitted from the luminaire to the Logica Control Unit and
then to the Supervisor Control Unit: an error message will be displayed on the screen of the
Supervisor Control Unit and the error will be recorded in the Logbook.
The Supervisor Control Unit allows you to set the date and time of the next tests either indivi-
dually, for each Logica Control Unit, or globally, for all Logica Control Units in the system. After
setting the date and time of the next Functional and Autonomy Tests, all subsequent tests will
be performed at a regular interval, which can also be set in the menu of the Control Unit.
For a correct operation of the system, the following must be set:
- Date and time of the next Functional Test;
- Date and time of the next Autonomy Test;
- Time interval between repeated Functional Tests;
- Time interval between repeated Autonomy Tests.

10
Luminaires connected to each Logica Control Unit by Beghelli can be divided into groups to
perform separate operations on system sections. Each luminaire can belong to a group, multi-
ple groups or no group. The total number of groups available is 16.
Assigning a luminaire to a group is an operation that needs to be performed on the Logica Control
Unit to which that luminaire is connected; for this, refer to the “Logica Control Unit by Beghelli”
manual.
The Supervisor Control Unit has the same Group concept as the Logica Control Units: any ope-
ration performed from the Supervisor Control Unit on a group, will affect the corresponding group
of each Logica Control Unit by Beghelli in the system; if a command is sent to group '1' from the
Supervisor Control Unit by Beghelli, that command will affect all luminaires belonging to group
'1' of each Logica Control Unit by Beghelli.

MAINTENANCE MENU
MANUAL TEST
The Functional and Autonomy Tests are meant to check the emergency luminaires. Functional
Tests consist in turning on the luminaire for about 30 seconds and checking the luminaire tube
and battery efficiency; Autonomy Tests consist in turning on the luminaire for extended periods
of time and checking if the battery is still working.
Normally, Functional and Autonomy Tests are run automatically at regular intervals according
to the schedule set by the user (see "Scheduling Functional and Autonomy Tests") but it is also
possible to perform Functional or Autonomy Tests directly from the keyboard: Manual Test.
The manual tests are interrupted after the related time set has lapsed or by sending a stop test
command.
Manual Tests will not change the time intervals and durations set for the automatic Tests.
Use the MANUAL TEST menu to perform the operations described in the following table:
To: go to the menu:
run a Functional Test FUNCTION
run an unlimited time test that will stop when the
battery is empty ALWAYS ON

13
EMERGENCY
N.B.: commands in the EMERGENCY menu will only affect luminaires that are not powered
from the mains, i.e. they are lit in a state of emergency.
When power from the mains to a luminaire is cut off, the luminaire will turn on and run on bat-
tery supply. As long as its battery still has energy stored, any of the following commands can
be sent to the luminaire:
- Disable the state of emergency: the luminaire turns off; it can be turned back on by enabling
the state of emergency.
- Enable the state of emergency: the luminaire turns on
- Turn off: the luminaire is turned off permanently; it cannot be turned back on unless the lumi-
naire itself detects mains power. This feature can be useful to preserve the bulbs batteries
when, for instance, it is necessary to remove the power supply to the system for a long
period.
To: go to the menu:
disable the state of emergency EMERG. UNENABLED

REMOTE CONFIGURATION
Using this menu, the Supervisor Control Unit can request each connected Logica Control Unit sepa-
rately or all Logica Control Units in the system to search for luminaires connected to it/them.
Basically, you can use the Supervisor Control Unit to send a command equivalent to "SYSTEM CON-
FIGURATION", which is available on the Logica Control Units.
The Logica Control Unit by Beghelli to which such a command is sent will perform a search for
connected luminaires; the operation generally takes less than a minute. Within another minute
or so, the Logica Control Unit will send to the Supervisor Control Unit all the information related
to detected luminaires.
REMOTE LOCKING - REMOTE UNLOCKING
These menus allow you to lock or unlock the keyboard of each connected Logica Control Unit.
eyboard locking prevents unauthorised persons from tampering with the Control Units: this
protection is achieved by prompting for a password when a key is pressed on the keyboard. After
typing in the password, the user will be able to freely operate the Control Unit for a few minutes
and then he/she will have to enter the password again. For more details, see the “Logica Control
Unit by Beghelli” manual.
SOFTWARE UPGRADE
This menu allows you to update the software of the Supervisor Control Unit. You need to have a
USB stick with properly configured directories and contents: new software version, configuration
