This lighting controller allows you to precisely control light intensity as well as
the K-Color of dual color LED lights with the use of the light sensor.
Program the schedule with up to 24 different periods of 24 steps each.
The LUMIX has two 10A lighting outputs
compatible with American and European standards
(120V / 240V, 50Hz / 60Hz)
and an alarm relay

Description:
The LUMIX is a lighting dimmer with a programmable schedule,
specifically designed for livestock applications.
It has a light sensor that measures the light intensity in Lux as well
as the color of the lighting in Kelvins. This allows it to maintain a
steady light intensity and color.
The LUMIX schedule contains 24 different programmable periods.
Each period can contain up to 24 lighting steps per cycle.
The LUMIX can also operate as a slave system for a master controller
using its 0-10V inputs. It then acts as a power module that converts
a 0-10V signal into power applied to the lighting outputs.
A manual mode allows you to control your lighting manually,
regardless of the schedule, whether in master or slave mode.
The LUMIX allows you to protect your programmed schedule and
settings with two functions:
- A 4-digit access code can be used to lock the system. When the
system is locked, no changes can be made to the schedule or
settings.
- A non-volatile internal memory allows you to make a backup copy
of your schedule and settings.

How the LUMIX works
Lexicon:
Step: a step is a specific point in time. Each step consists of one
hour, a set point for the luminous intensity and a set point for the
color.
Period: The period is a group of steps, on a 24h cycle. It starts at
00:00 and ends at 23:59. The periods are repeated a certain number
of days.
Schedule: The schedule is composed of all the periods. The total
duration of the schedule is the sum of the number of days in each
period.
How the schedule works:
Throughout the schedule, every minute of the day is a point in time
that matches with a step, or that is between 2 steps. The system
automatically calculates the intensity and color set points to be
applied for each moment of the day according to the steps
programmed in the schedule.
Each period will be run sequentially, starting with period 1 on day 1.
A period with the number of days at 0 will be ignored. When the last
day of the schedule is over, the system will repeat the last period,
until the clock is reset to day 1.

The interface:
The LUMIX is fully programmed using its touch screen. Each screen
displays different controls that can be operated by a simple touch of
the finger, such as buttons or progress bars. The touch screen of the
LUMIX detects only one touch at a time. The interface is very intuitive
and easy to master.
Lights:
The LUMIX is specially designed to work with dual color LED lights. It
can adjust each color independently, and thus create any light
intensity of any color that lies within the limits of the lights used. It
can also be used in monochrome mode with standard light fixtures. In
that case, only the intensity in Lux will be used and both outputs will
operate at the same level at all time, except in manual mode.
Light Sensor:
The light sensor is able to measure the light intensity as well as the
color of the light that shines on it with great precision. Keep in mind
that emitted light as well as reflected light will be detected by the
sensor. Avoid mounting the sensor near brightly colored objects.
Alarm Relay:
The alarm relay detects a malfunction of the light sensor that could
prevent the LUMIX from functioning properly. A jumper on the
electronic board allows to choose a NO (normally open) or NC
(normally closed) contact. When the sensor is operating normally, the
relay is in its “normal” state: the NO contact is open and the NC
contact is closed. When the LUMIX detects that the sensor is not
working, the state of the relay is reversed.
How the LUMIX works

Parameters:
Parameter Lock: The lock allows you to prevent changes to the
parameters and schedule. A padlock icon will flash to indicate that
the system is locked. You have to unlock the system by entering the
correct code in order to change the parameters or schedule. You can
use a different code each time you lock the system. Only the last
code entered will be accepted to unlock. If you forget the code, refer
to the “Reset to Default Parameters” section.
Language: Lets you to choose the language of the interface.
Mode: To choose whether the control operates in master mode or in
slave mode. In master mode, the system schedule is used to control
the lighting outputs. In slave mode, it is a 0-10V voltage supplied by
an external source that controls the lighting outputs.
Phase Dimming: Determines the compatibility of the dimmer with
the installed lights. Some lights work best with one mode or the
other. It's up to you to find out which of the two modes best suits
your lighting.
Chromatic Lighting: Allows you to enable or disable color control.
Disable color lighting if your fixtures do not support this technology.
How the LUMIX works

Schedule Programming:
The LUMIX schedule consists of up to 24 periods, each of which can
contain up to 24 steps. You can use the programming worksheet in
this manual to help you visualize the lighting curves you want to
program.
Periods
The schedule is a series of periods that follow one after the other.
Each period is repeated for a number of days which is programmed
for each period.
The Period Scheduling screen allows you to add or remove periods in
the schedule and configure the number of days each of these periods
will be repeated. This screen also shows you the total duration of
your schedule. The schedule can contain up to 12 periods in total.
Press the “Edit” button to access the step programming screen.
Steps
Each period is programmed by placing steps to places which define
the desired light level and color adjustments. The system will
calculate the dimming slope between the steps automatically. If two
steps are at the same level, the intensity will not vary between these
two steps. The same goes for color.

Based on the following example:
For lighting that gradually turns on at 8h00 and turns off gradually at
22h00 with a 30-minute slope:
You need to program the following 4 steps:
Step 1 at 8h00 - Light level 0%
Step 2 at 8h30 - Light level 100%
Step 3 at 21h30 - Light level 100%
Step 4 at 22h00 - Light level 0%
This programming will have the following effect:
From 8h00 to 8h30, the intensity of the lighting will increase from
0% to 100% gradually.
From 8h30 to 21h30 the lighting will stay at the same level, 100%
From 21h30 to 22h00 the intensity of the lighting will decrease from
100% to 0% gradually.
From 22h to 8h the lighting will stay at the same level, 0%
By adjusting these values and adding steps, you can create the ideal
lighting curve for your needs.
You can use up to 24 steps in a period.
Use the on screen visualization bar as a guide, it shows you a
preview of light variations throughout the period as you modify the
steps parameters. You can also use the following page to draw your
lighting curve and set the required steps.

Reset to Default Parameters:
The procedure to reset the system to the default values is as follows:
1- Turn the main power off
2- Remove the battery
3- Wait about 30 seconds
4- Replace the battery
5- Turn the main power back on
This procedure clears all parameters from memory and the system
will return to default values.
The schedule is completely erased for both zones.
Touch screen calibration is reset.
The lock code is removed.
After restarting the system, you will need to calibrate the touch
screen before you can use it.
Resetting to default values does not affect the internal nonvolatile
memory. If you have saved your data, you can always recover it after
a reset to default values.
