LIGHTING CONTROL STRATEGY BY SPACE TYPE The purpose of developing a lighting control strategy is to establish consistent a design and performance standard relevant to lighting controls within different space types. To develop a lighting control framework for different space types at Monash University, the following strategies listed in Table 1 were employed. These strategies provide the premise for appropriate lighting control within each space type – defined in Table 2. As a standard, lighting control is to be achieved via local smart sensors that are adjustable by any qualified electrician. Programmable control systems are acceptable subject to Monash approval for space types that require complex functions, e.g. multiple scene settings.

Section K – Appendix – Electrical Daylight harvesting is to be implemented where good day lighting is available, provided space size and other attributes justify its use. In spaces where operable walls are in located, lighting control will need to be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. For all implementation strategies, the position of control devices must enable ease of access for initial installation, wiring and testing, maintenance, removal and replacement of equipment and wiring during the life of the installation. Table 1 Description of the different types of lighting control strategies that are employed in the Monash University lighting control matrix in Table 2. Strategy Control Description Manual On/off switch Local switches to allow occupant on/off control of lights. Manual dimming Local stepped or continuous dimming with the DALI dimming protocol (e.g. for audio visual presentations) Multi-zone switch Local switches to allow occupant on/off control for multiple zones of lights. Override switch Central override of automatic controls Scheduling Time clock on Turn lighting on at pre-set daily time schedule Time clock off Turn lighting off at pre-set daily time schedule Occupancy Presence on/dim/off Detects presence to determine lights on (with motion), off (no motion) or dim then off (no motion) Acoustic on/dim/off Detects sound to determine lights on (with sound), off (no sound) or dim then off (no sound) Absence off Detects the absence of people to switch lighting off Auto-dim/off timer Field adjustable setting that determines how much (mins) time will pass before lights are either dimmed or turned off after last motion is detected Dimmed time (mins) Field adjustable setting that determines how much time lights are dimmed before turning off (where occupancy controlled dimming is utilised) Daylighting On/off Turn lighting off when daylight is detected, or turn lighting on when there is not enough daylight detected in a photocell in applicable zones Continuous dimming Detects using a photocell if the daylight level is too high or low to dim or increase lumen output as required with the DALI dimming protocol. AV AV system Low level or High level interfacing with lighting integration control - TBA regarding the AV functions HVAC HVAC integration Low level or High level interfacing with lighting control - depends on the HVAC system. HVAC integration to be a dedicated output/channel from the lighting control.
