Future proof
lighting management
LightMaster Modular is a new ‘building block’ concept in lighting management systems designed to meet the time and cost saving needs of building developers, designers, owners, occupiers and installers in today’s fast changing environment.
From a ‘ready to use’ solution through to full systems
integration, LightMaster Modular is fully scaleable and upgradeable.You only pay for what you need when you need it. And with advanced lighting controls technology operating in the background, the controls can be aligned to the use of the space with no need for specialist knowledge and programming skills.
The core principles of a Lighting Management system are to
• Cut installation and operational costs • Introduce flexibility into the use of a space
• Aid the owner to meet legal and building performance regulations
LightMaster Modular is designed specifically to address all these points, but also other important issues faced by owners, developers and users, including
• Regular and rapid changes in the use of buildings and spaces
• Increasing expectations of users regarding comfort and performance
• Continuously changing rules, regulations, legislation and technologies
LightMaster Modular makes major savings possible. Its rapid and straightforward installation, ability to save electricity and automated monitoring can all reduce the total cost of ownership of a lighting system by as much as 50%.
Most importantly, a revolutionary approach to low cost system upgrades and configuration changes means that those savings are protected over the life of the building.

• Full compliance is supported from the moment of switch on in terms of energy performance and comfort
• Lighting available during construction so that system functionalities can be tested
• Ability to test emergency lighting immediately Because of its modular nature, the basic system can be readily upgraded.There is no need to worry about spending money on anticipated future requirements.
Designed to meet fast changing needs
Plugging up to 4 sensors into the lighting controller will automatically divide the luminaires into separately operated areas
Plugging one sensor into the lighting controller will automatically control ALL luminaires
9LS LCM 'building block' features
• Effective lighting control, immediately available, with no need for commissioning
• Choice of switching only, or switching and dimming solutions
• Operation of luminaires via standard wall switches, or controlled by input from sensors
• Automatic recognition and allocation of sensors All lighting control modules within the LightMaster Modular system share these features as applicable. LightMaster Modular system compatibility • All fluorescent ballast types including analogue
(1-10V) and digital (DALI and DSI); even in combination
• Virtually all lamp types, even HID and halogen in switching versions
• The latest innovative luminaires featuring colour temperature mixing for dynamic lighting • LED technology
The fundamental LightMaster Modular system building block is the 9 output lighting control module (9LS LCM). It can be operated as an entry-level solution suitable for rooms or small areas; or used within a complete lighting management system.
Easy ‘Ready to use’ functionality
Fully scaleable Lighting Management
Upgrade at any time during the life of the building
• A 'smart lid' on the 9LS LCM can be changed to upgrade the system from switching only to switching and dimming
• Sensors and detectors can be added for increased energy efficiency and improved personal control. Up to 4 independent sensor interfaces, and 4 separate switch inputs are possible per LCM
• Floor Managers can be added to the network to bring extra resources to the LCMs as well as centralised control and management
• A front end can be added to provide full system diagnostics, monitoring, automatic emergency testing and system reconfiguration
• Innovative remote control using RC5 coded infrared is possible. With this system a single sensor can be used with several remote controls, with each able to address specific luminaires, enabling personalised lighting and scene setting
Upgrading from switching only to switching and dimming
At times a developer knows that a specific lighting management solution is required in their building. But more often this need only arises over time and changing user requirements. In both cases LightMaster Modular is easily extended from basic to full lighting management functionality, without costly wiring changes.

Complete system integration
If required, the LightMaster Modular system can accommodate the integrated approach to building
management systems. Using the market standard LONWORKS® protocol, it is interoperable with other systems incorporating HVAC, window blinds, security and access control
functionality. All functions can be provided using a shared network cable, a single PC containing configuration software for all systems, and even shared sensors. Other suppliers can also integrate the relevant LightMaster Modular control modules, using LNS®Plug-ins supplied for this purpose.

The freedom to change
The hardware forms one aspect of a lighting management system, but there is also the issue of commissioning and configuration, traditionally a costly and time consuming process that hampers the ability to easily adapt the system.
The extensive experience of Philips Lighting together with its UK based acquisition ECS has been used to develop LightMaster Modular’s truly user friendly software interface, LightManager®Modular. User friendly interface
With LightManager®Modular programming of the system can be easily adjusted by the end user depending on how the space is being used: • Simply group the luminaires into functional ‘zones’ • For each ‘zone’ select the use of the space from
predefined templates (for example cell office, corridor or open plan office)
The advanced technology built into LightManager® Modular then automatically programmes the group of luminaires to the right settings to match the chosen use of the space and the installed equipment.
Changes with minimal costs
LightManager®Modular makes it easy to keep pace with changes in building layout and usage, giving the freedom to apply any desired lighting functionality in any zone or area at any time. Without needing to use a
commissioning engineer.
The innovative system architecture of LightMaster Modular also offers the flexibility to add other functionality such as web browsing, telephone override and TCP/IP integration.

Installation choices
The complete portfolio of LightMaster Modular components offers a choice of standard plug-in, screw terminal and DIN rail solutions for connection.The central component, the 9LS lighting control module is a compact one-piece install.
A new standard in cabling
The cabling system for the LightMaster Modular 9LS LCM is based on the new gesis®Twin-lead solution from Wieland.This system separates the mains from the dimming control cable, and was selected to align with the future connection standard for luminaires and control cabling.The benefits include:
• More flexible cable for easier handling, and a smaller bend radius to fit in tighter spaces
• Reduced chance for connection errors
• Possibility to upgrade switching only to dimming by adding a cable, rather than replacing one
• Compatible with all luminaire brands
Multiple mounting techniques
Ceiling, wall, cable duct, drop rods, trunking and even under the floor.
Free topology and polarity insensitive network The LightMaster Modular network features free topology and a polarity insensitive data control cable to further speed the connection process and reduce possibilities for error.This also simplifies the addition of LCMs and other components, as well as integration with other systems.
3-fuse protection system
A 3-fuse system in each 9LS LCM means that any luminaire fault that causes the circuit to short will affect, at maximum, only two other outputs. Each of the 3 fuses is simple to replace.
Low depth ceiling voids
The 9LS LCM module itself is designed to be very low height and the outputs are connected at the sides of the module - ideal for shallow ceiling voids.
Easy and secure mains connection Easily accessed fuses

Designed to comply now and in
the future
Compliant from power up
LightMaster Modular is pre-programmed to support full compliance with current energy performance and health and safety directives from the moment it is switched on. This gives an immediate benefit of energy saving from both daylight linking and movement detection. As a result of the system’s fully distributed intelligence, local functionality is still available in case of network interruption.The full range of functionality of LightMaster Modular ensures that any other requirements, now or in the future, can be easily met, via simple low cost changes and upgrades.
Small sensors with bigger energy savings Special attention has been paid to the multi-sensor, with separate components for daylight sensing, movement detection and infrared remote control.This ensures the correct performance to maximise energy savings and comfort, delivered within a small, discrete device.
Automatic energy monitoring
Energy consumption can be monitored from the system centrally rather than requiring separate metering on all circuits, simplifying management and saving time and cost.
Emergency testing made easy
With LightMaster Modular emergency testing is simple to manage. Emergency luminaires can be selectively tested, thus ensuring that at least some of the fittings remain available during a full exhaustion test.
Testing and logging of all emergency lighting equipment can be pre-programmed to run in the background at the required times, ensuring that the requirements are met.
Current and future lighting trends LightMaster Modular has been designed with consideration for the trends we see in lighting and architecture. As well as being fully and simply upgradeable to cope with changing needs, LightMaster Modular
• Is fully compatible with luminaire systems featuring dynamic ambience.These luminaires have adjustable colour temperature and light level, taking nature as an example to bring the dynamics of daylight to the office environment
• Has the ability to build in highly localised ‘personal’ solutions for building users to set their own lighting preferences
• Has been designed with special consideration for miniaturisation to reflect the trend for streamlined architectural spaces.The control modules, floor managers and sensors have all been reduced in all dimensions
