Sytems Automation and Ballast Control with ZED Control Units - Generals
Overview Datasheets
 

Systems Communication via RS485:

  • The microprocessor controlled electronic ballasts by ZED are provided with a set of control features:
    • turn on/off ballast
    • ballast status monitoring
    • set lamp current level during operation
    • preheat on/off
    • set preheat current level
    • select preheat time
    • ballasts can be controlled locally or remotely via RS485
    • up to 256 ballast can be connected to one two-wire bus(RS485)
    • identification with a (bus-)unique address
    • remote control via PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), PC or special ZED control units ZCon

  • The Digital Sensors by ZED are to be connected and monitored via RS485:
    • sensor identification via sensor ID
    • UV value given as ASCII text via RS485
    • value monitoring via PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), PC or special ZED´s monitors or control units
    • simple communication protocol allows easy integration (third party slaves not allowed on the bus)
    • enhanced communication protocol supports all ZCon features
Control System ZCon:

  • scalable control unit for systems automation
  • adapts to complex systems
  • control of ZED microprocessor controlled electronic ballasts
  • UV monitoring with digital and analog UV sensors
