EcoSystem® digital link
The EcoSystem digital link is a wired communication technology that
facilitates individual ballast addressing, connection of multiple control
devices and control of ballasts individually or in groups.
2-Wire forward phase
Forward phase control is a line-voltage phase control dimming method,
that operates on two wires: Dimmed Hot and Neutral.
Control type Features Ideal applications
EcoSystem digital link
•
Polarity insensitive, may be wired in
any topology
•
May be run with line-voltage wiring
(Class 1) or separately from the
line-voltage wiring (Class 2)
•
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
