UNIT DESCRIPTION

The DM-105-WP is a control module that is used to switch HID (High Intensity Discharge) lamps

from high to low and from low to high. The DM-105-WP includes a rugged weatherproof housing

for outdoor mounting applications. The DM-105-WP bases its bi-level switching on signals

received from a controlling device (see below).

With the DM-105-WP and a motion sensor, HID lighting will switch to a lower, energy saving light

level (high to low) after a space becomes unoccupied. When the space is again occupied, lighting

returns to full brightness (low to high).

Upon initial power up of HID lamps, or after a power failure or phase drop, the DM-105-WP

supplies full power for a 15 minute lamp warm-up. Then, lighting either remains at full level if the

space is occupied, or goes to the low level if unoccupied.

The DM-105-WP's bi-level switching avoids the warm-up problem otherwise found when

controlling HID fixtures. The switching is immediate and lights are no longer left on at 100% when

unneeded. This saves energy and adds convenience.

Controlling Devices

One or more controlling devices (such as the EW-105-24, or EW-205-24 motion sensor) must be

used to control a DM-105-WP. A single motion sensor can provide control for up to two

DM-105-WP modules. (See Control Wiring on page 5). One DM-105-WP is required for each

ballast.

A controlling device must:

1. Have its own power supply, or be able to be powered by the +24VDC output from a

DM-105-WP.

2. Provide a +24VDC control output to the DM-105-WP.

DM-105-WP INSTALLATION

The DM-105-WP attaches directly to the HID ballast

housing.

MOUNTING

1. DANGER—Disconnect power to the fixture

and make sure the circuit breaker is off. The

fixture’s capacitor may also contain a stored

high voltage charge! Carefully open the ballast housing so that the ballast and capacitor are

easily accessible. Follow proper safety procedures to discharge the installed capacitor inside the

ballast housing.

2. Open a 1/2" knockout hole in the ballast housing where the DM-105-WP will attach.

3. Unscrew the metal conduit lock ring from the DM-105-WP box. The rubber washer might be

removed along with the lock ring; if so, replace the washer around the wires coming out of the

DM-105-WP.

4. Pull the wires into the ballast

fixture.

5. Pull the wires through the metal

conduit lock ring. Push the

threaded end of the lock ring

through the knockout in the ballast

housing. Attach the lock ring to the

DM-105-WP through the rubber

washer.

6. Tighten the lock ring inside the

ballast housing so that a watertight

seal is achieved using the rubber

washer between the DM-105-WP and the ballast housing.

BALLAST WIRING

1. Refer to the wiring diagrams on the following page.

Connect WHITE/BLUE wire from the DM-105-WP to the B terminal on the bi-level capacitor.

Connect WHITE wire from the DM-105-WP to the C terminal on the bi-level capacitor;

from the same terminal complete the connection to the ballast with the WHITE wire.

Connect WHITE/ORANGE wire from the DM-105-WP to the A terminal on the bi-level capacitor.

Connect GREEN wire from the DM-105-WP to the fixture ground.

Connect BLACK wire to:

lamp for 175 to 1000 Watt Metal Halide Systems.

ballast coil for High Pressure Sodium and Metal Halide Pulse Start Systems.

2. Reassemble the ballast housing, being careful not to pinch wires.

3. Motion sensor(s) can be attached to the pole at this time or after the fixture is installed.

4. Mount the fixture with the installed DM-105-WP and motion sensor. Balance the fixture if

needed.

5. Reconnect the power cord to the fixture (power should be off at the circuit breaker).

DANGER–HIGH VOLTAGE

CONTROL WIRING

After the DM-105-WP is installed and the fixture is mounted, low voltage control wire connections

can be made to the DM-105-WP. All low voltage control wires are in the 10’ black cable

connected to the DM-105-WP.

Make connections before the fixture’s power is restored. When all connections are made,

continue to Testing.

NOTE: If you are not installing the motion

sensor at this time and you want the lights to

operate at full output (high), connect the

DM-105-WP’s low voltage Red and White

wires to each other.

Motion sensors: (typical connections)

1. Connect the sensor’s +24VDC Input to the

Red wire from the DM-105-WP cable.

2. Connect the Common from the sensor to

the Black wire from the DM-105-WP cable.

3. Connect the Control Output from the sensor to

the White wire from the DM-105-WP cable.

Control Configurations

One DM-105-WP is required for each ballast.

One sensor can control two DM-105-WPs.

The illustrations on this page show typical

configurations for DM-105-WP modules and their

associated lighting fixtures and sensors.

TESTING

1. After the installation is complete and checked, turn on the main power to the fixture circuits and

turn on any controlling switches.

• The DM-105-WPs will supply full power to the HID lamps for 15 minutes for the lamp

warm up. After the warm up time has elapsed, the lamps can go to low.

2. To test motion sensor control: Lamps that are controlled by a motion sensor will go to low if no

motion has been detected and the sensor’s time delay has elapsed. Turn off all other

controlling devices to the sensor controlled lamps. Set the time delay on the sensor to

minimum, then move into the coverage area for the sensor. Remain still until the time delay

elapses. The lights should go to low.

3. Verify that other conntrolling devices turn the lamps to low as desired.

TROUBLESHOOTING

General checks:

•Wires make proper contact.

•Wires are connected to correct terminals or connector leads.

• High voltage DM-105-WP wires are securely connected.

•Wiring of switch, motion sensor or other control devices to DM-105-WP is correct.

• Motion sensor adjustments: sensitivity and light level (if applicable), sensor alignment.

Lights do not turn on

• Check breakers, fuses.

• Check light level setting on motion sensor for proper adjustment.

• Check motion sensor detection.

• Check that HID fixtures are plugged in.

• Follow proper high voltage safety procedures and check wiring and connections in the

ballast housings.

Some lights in a DM-105-WP group turn on but others do not

• Check the DM-105-WP connections to a fixture that does not turn on in a connected group.

- Verify that proper wire contact is being made in the terminal block.

- Verify that connections are correct.

•Verify that the bulb has not burned out.

• Make sure you follow the recommendations found in the control wiring section.

All lights in a DM-105-WP group remain on high

• Check to see if something is giving an “on” input to the DM-105-WPs.

• Check controlling devices and connections to the DM-105-WPs.

• Check light level setting on motion sensor for proper adjustment.

• Check motion sensor detection.

Lights remain on low

• The “on” input from the controlling device is not reaching the DM-105-WP group.

• Check controlling devices and connections to the DM-105-WPs.

• Check light level setting on motion sensor for proper adjustment.

• Check motion sensor detection.

All lights turn off

The main power is being turned off to the lights. The main power should be turned off only when

intending to completely turn off the lights. Remember, there is a restrike/warm up period before

the lights will return to full brightness.

• Check main power supply.

• Check breakers, fuses and that HID fixtures are plugged in.

• Check for energy management systems or building controls that affect power to the lights.

Motion sensor not detecting

• Refer to sensor’s installation instructions for proper adjustment and troubleshooting.
