Photocell Sensors
The Vision.net Photocell Daylighting Sensor is
a low-voltage daylighting sensor that measures
changes in ambient light and controls its connected
lighting loads according to the user’s programming.
The unit is able to decipher minor changes in light
levels (such as passing cloud cover, intermittent
shadowing, etc.) to prevent unwanted or
inadvertent light cycling.
The Vision.net photocell provides a truly effective
energy conservation lighting control system by
harvesting daylight, reducing your energy costs.
Features
• Detects and identifies pre-programmed ambient
daylight levels to turn on lights when needed, and
to prevent them from turning on when the ambient
daylight is above a certain level
• Upon detection of a pre-programmed daylight set
point, the sensor may be programmed to execute
any vision.net command across the architectural
control network
• User-friendly programming unit is available to
configure the sensor. Programming is easy and
simple and does not require the use of ladders
• “Laser Painting,” a sensor with the laser pointer
built into the remote, provides accurate sensor
selection for programming
• A photocell sensor can be combined with
7 occupancy sensors on a single data link
• Sensor can be programmed with a laptop PC
as well as with a remote
• Status LEDs facilitate sensor programming
• Each sensor can be programmed to execute any
Vision.net system command
Strand Architectural Controls
Vision.net photocell sensors provide
energy-saving lighting controls for your
facility. Sensors easily integrate into any Vision.net
architectural control system, providing direct control
of Vision.net compatible dimmers and low-voltage
relay switching systems.
Vision.net photocell sensors can be used as part of an open-loop or closed-loop system.
Open loop: measures only natural daylight, and does
not sense any electric lighting. The photocell should
not see any electric light and should be mounted near a
window.
Closed loop: measures the combined light level from
both natural daylight and electric lighting systems.
