Introduction
How to Use this Guide
This programming guide contains three main sections:
•Introduction - Includes system specifications, electrical contractor Start-Up Checklist, and an overview of the
controller and how to use it.
•Step by Step Programming Instructions - Walks you through each step needed to program your system.
•Reference Information - Includes additional procedures that you may need to perform after the system is
programmed, including how to override system settings and lock/unlock the controller. This section also includes
troubleshooting tips, system maintenance, a glossary of terms, and system planning tables.
When programming the LCP128 system, you will need to know the following key information:
• How many panels are in this system and how many circuits are in each panel.
• How many modules are in the system and the module types.
• What the load schedule is.
• Where each wallstation and key switch is located and what each button or key turn should do.
• What each contact closure input and output should do.
• What the time clock should do.
Please read the guide completely before attempting to program the system.
Tables are provided at the back of this guide to record the above information. Photocopy the tables as
needed, and leave them for the occupant after they are completed.
Note: For mounting and wiring information, refer to the LCP128 Installation Guide, Lutron P/N 032-150.

Introduction
System Specifications
LCP128 is a lighting control system designed for commercial buildings. It consists of up to 8 dimming panels
and up to 32 control stations. Control stations can be wallstations, key switches, contact closure input and
output devices (OMX-AV), contact closure output devices (OMX-CCO-8), or building management system
interfaces (OMX-RS232). All panels and control stations are connected by a digital communications link. Refer
to the LCP128 Installation Guide for wiring details. Other system specifications are described below.
Time Clock
• 7 weekly schedules.
• Up to 40 holiday schedules.
• Each holiday schedule can be 1-90 days.
• Up to 500 time clock events.
• Maximum of 25 time clock events per day.
• Up to 32 scenes and 1 Off scene.
• With each time clock event or control station input, you can select which circuits turn on or off and, for dimming
circuits, set specific dimming levels.
• Time clock events can occur at a fixed time of day or at a time relative to sunrise or sunset (astronomical).
• Events can be placed on either a weekly schedule (for example, occurring every Monday) or a holiday schedule
(for example, occurring only on January 1).
• Holiday schedules override weekly schedules.
• Time clock events can start and end afterhours mode. Afterhours is an energy saving mode where lights that
are set to be off will automatically, after a period of time, turn themselves off. Afterhours mode can be
temporarily overridden by any control station action. See STEP 5 for more information.
• Time clock events can enable and disable control stations.
Control Station - Wallstation
Wallstation buttons can be individually programmed to:
• Select a scene or custom scene. A scene is a combination of preset lighting levels used to automatically turn
on, off, or dim a circuit or group of circuits. Each time the wallstation button is pressed, the circuits go to the
programmed scene settings.
• Raise or lower circuits. Dimming circuits progressively raise or lower as long as the button is pressed. Circuits
stay at this setting until another event or control station input occurs.
• Toggle circuits on and off. Each press of the button alternates between turning the circuits on and off. If the
circuits are in a mixed state (some on and some off), the lights turn on.
• Turn off with a time delay. When the button is pressed, the circuits turn off after a preset amount of time.
• Enable or disable time clock.
Control Station - Key Switch
• The key switch (NTOMX-KS) can be programmed for clockwise and counterclockwise turns and with the same
functions as a wallstation button.
Control Station - Contact Closure Inputs
Two contact closure inputs are available on each LCP128 controller – more are available by purchasing a Lutron
OMX-AV control station (five inputs per OMX-AV that can be added anywhere on the digital control station link).
• The contact closure inputs can be programmed on the open and/or closure of the contact to perform the same
functions as a wallstation button.

R
6LCP128TM Setup and Maintenance Guide
Introduction
Control Station - Contact Closure Outputs
Contact closure outputs can be added with either a Lutron OMX-AV control station (five outputs per OMX-AV) or
with a Lutron OMX-CCO-8 (eight outputs per OMX-CCO-8). Either control station can be added anywhere on
the digital control station link.
• Each contact closure may be momentary or maintained.
• Each contact closure output can be assigned to an action that is programmed to a wallstation button, key turn,
contact closure input, time clock event, or emergency state.
Integration through RS232
The LCP128 system can be integrated with a building management system through the Lutron RS232 interface
(OMX-RS232).
Emergency Power Mode
When a LCP128 panel is placed into emergency power mode (loss of normal power), circuits are changed to
emergency settings and remain at those settings until the controller exits emergency power mode (return of
normal power). All control station inputs and time clock events are ignored while in emergency power mode.
Emergency power mode can be activated using:
• Panel to panel emergency sense line. This method requires that the system have at least two panels. The
system must have at least one normal (non-essential) feed panel and at least one emergency (essential) feed
panel. When power to the normal panel is interrupted, the emergency panel(s) will go into emergency mode.
Note that the normal / emergency switches at the bottom of the controllers need to be set correctly.
• The Lutron emergency lighting interface (LUT-ELI-3PH), a UL 924 listed device, senses the normal (non-
essential) line voltage on all three phases (3PH) of normal power. When one or more phases of power are lost,
the LUT-ELI-3PH sends a signal to the LCP128 controller. If the LCP128 controller’s normal / emergency switch
is set to emergency, the emergency lighting scene or programmed circuit levels are activated.
For more information on emergency lighting applications, refer to Application Note #106. Available at
www.lutron.com.

LCP128 System Start-Up Checklist for Electrical Contractor
Important Note:
To ensure that the LCP128 System is ready for Start-Up, please complete the following checklist.
The LCP128 panel(s) and control station(s) have been mounted in accordance with the installation instructions.
Control stations have been wired to the panel in accordance with installation instructions.
Feed and load wiring to panel have been installed in accordance with the installation instructions.
All load circuits have been activated in bypass mode (bypass jumpers installed) and are correctly and
permanently lamped.
Bypass jumpers have been removed and all circuits activated as default Non-Dim load type.
Load schedule for each panel has been completed.
Correct load type for each circuit has been determined and recorded.
When the above checklist is completed, please fax this sheet along with the completed load schedule
for each panel to Lutron Field Service Scheduling at [phone].

The LCP128 controller uses certain methods for navigating, selecting, setting values, etc. Please read this
section carefully before using the controller to program your system.
The LCP128 controller has nine buttons below the display. The table below explains their functions.
The Screen
All screens on the LCP128 controller have a
similar look with some common elements.
These are:
• A screen title
• Left and right soft button labels
• A scroll bar (only present if more information is
available than will fit on the screen.)
The example shows the Main Menu. The scroll
bar indicates that there is more information in the
menu than fits on the screen. Pressing
repeatedly scrolls through the menu and shows
other choices. The shaded slider on the scroll
bar indicates what portion of the menu is being
displayed.
Help
Help on the current screen is always available by
pressing the button. If more information is
available than fits on the screen, use and
