have a neutral wire
in the backbox
EcoSystem digital
link control
•
Digitally addressable and allows LED drivers to
communicate and react to environmental changes
•
Allows for rezoning without rewiring, and all links
are miswire protected
•
Projects requiring digital
control for individual
fixture addressability
•
Upgrade from analog
0-10 V control
•
Multi-zone applications
•
Small, retrofit
applications using

Choosing a control type input
The following control technologies refer to the signal and wiring between the control on the wall and the
LED driver. The compatibility of a dimmer with a particular LED fixture begins with making sure they both
use the same control method. These control technologies are used in standalone applications and control
systems as well as in wired and wireless lighting controls.
Selection of a control is typically driven by the requirements of the project.

How to build an EcoSystem® LED model number (CE models):
L DE A2E1C PA – __ __ __ __ __
Control type:*
DE = Digital Only
EcoSystem
Constant voltage
A = 8.0 V–12.0 V
B = 12.5 V–20.0 V
C = 20.5 V–24.0 V
D = 24.5 V–40.0 V
1.05 A and 25 W maximum
Constant current
G = 0.20 A–0.70 A 8 V–20 V
H = 0.20 A–0.70 A 15 V–40 V
I = 0.71 A–1.05 A 8 V–20 V
J = 0.71 A–1.05 A 15 V–40 V
40 V and 25 W maximum
LED load output range (see following
pages for explanation and examples):

Driver output:*
C = Constant current driver with pulse
width modulation (PWM) dimming
A = Constant current driver with constant
current reduction (CCR) dimming
V = Constant voltage driver with pulse
width modulation (PWM) dimming
Current level (for constant current):*
020 = 0.20 A; 021 = 0.21 A … 105 = 1.05 A
Voltage level (for constant voltage):*
100 = 10.0 V; 105 = 10.5 V … 400 = 40.0 V
