peripheral scope has been specially designed for the use as switch controller
for device spreading control of applications such as lighting control.
For the use in lighting the 3010PL Power Controller realizes 10 independent
output channels with ten relay output to control conventional switch.
For the use in sensor the 3010PL Power Controller realizes 10 independent
input channels with ten dry contacts for sensor input.
The LonMark object available per channel flexible use of the 3010PL Power
Controller; furthermore there are several timer functions for the operation by
switch function. The configuration of the lighting control application is effected
via a plug-In.
Of course, the 3010PL Power Controller is also freeing programmable in
Neuron C. As a flash module is used the application can be load via the
LonWorks network, making the 3010PL Power Controller an I/O controller, e.g.

5 Application Software for Lighting Control
On the 3010PL Power Controller an application for switch control is
implemented, making output functionality as well as switch control functions
available. Therefore the relevant LonMark profiles stated in Table 4.1 are
implemented. The use of network variables (NV) compiles with the LonMark
standard, no customized network variables are used. SCPT’s are used for
parameterization by applying the read/write-memory method.

5.1 System Scope
The 3010PL Power Controller is equipped with twenty channels, ten
channels for Relay Output and other ten channels for Dry Contact input.
The relay outputs of the 3010PL Power Controller allow the connection of
actuator. A Closed-Loop Actuator (CLA) object and Open-Loop Sensor
(OLS) object according to LonMark Standard can be assigned to these
output and configured.
Furthermore the 3010PL Power Controller can act as constant switch
controller and sensor controller. The switch and sensor detect either
generated by the internal CLA and OLS object; via an input network
variable.
The 3010PL Power Controller is equipped with ten relay outputs circuit to
connect e.g. Fluorescent Light, Motorize Screen.
Other ten dry contact input circuit to connect e.g. Motion Sensor, Smoke
detect, Alarm speaker.
5.2 Interoperable Interface
The LonMark profile 004 is realized in the 3010PL Power Controller. As no
customized NVs are used, the network interface remains standardized,

clear and especially it is interoperable. That means, the 3010PL Power
Controller can be used in connection with network components by other
manufactures. The following table contains a survey of the network
variables defining the 3010PL Power Controller network interface and their
assignment.

Explain UCPTdigitalOProcessType
UCPTdigitalOProcessType:
Affects the translation of incoming data to the value passed to the output network variable.
There are five processing options: Direct, Delay, Toggle, Pulse, and One-Sot
Processing
Input Output
Direct
The Direct option causes data to be output directly after the debounce and
invert functions have executed.
Toggle
The Toggled option causes the output data to toggle, or change state, every
time the input data changes from OFF to ON.
Delay

3010PL Power Controller User’s Manual
20 Rev.1.0
The Delay option specifies a delay from a change on the input to an update on
the output network variable. A change from OFF to ON is delayed by the time
specify by configuration property Turn-On Delay. A change from ON to OFF is
delayed by the time specify by configuration property Turn-Off Delay.
Pulse
The Pulse option generates a pulse on the output network variable every time
the input data changes from Off to On. The pulse is generated after a delay
specified on the Turn-On Delay. The duration of the pulse is specified on the
Pulse width field. It does not matter how long the input data remains on, the
output will always send a pulse of the specified length after waiting the
configured delay.
