GETTING STARTED
Overview
Rapid is a fully modular lighting control system which can be simply incorporated into a building design.
The lighting control modules (LCMs) described in the this document are used as part of the Rapid system to switch
lighting. They have individually addressable output relays for switching and in some cases can send dimming
signals for dimmable luminaires. A separate relay can be used for emergency testing.
The devices include interfaces for connection to external devices such as light switches, emergency test switches
and time clocks, and other ports enable the LCM to be connected to the main Rapid bus and peripherals such as
presence detectors and bus repeaters.
Rapid is designed to drastically reduce installation time by connecting all products in the system using industry
standard plug and socket connections. A unique manual infra-red programming facility enables the system to be
configured prior to delivery, thus minimising the final commissioning process.
▪5▪
Mounting Rapid devices

1. Install devices in the position shown on the installation drawings where possible.
2. Always follow any device-specific installation requirements given in the Product Guides for each device.
3. Always ensure that installation complies with relevant Building Regulations and that device wiring meets the
requirements of the latest IEE Wiring Regulations (BS7671).
4. Fix the box on a smooth, flat surface or using drop rod fixings. You can use optional track fixings.
5. Ensure that there is easy access to the wiring compartment and all connectors once the box is in place.
Allow 170mm for total height of installed unit including connectors and cable.
6. Ensure that LCMs face downwards and are clear of obstructions so that they are accessible and visible.
û ü
7. Do not exceed the maximum length of cable of 200m on the DALI bus.
▪6▪
RECOMMENDED CABLE TYPES FOR
NETWORKS
Please note that these recommendations are for the Rapid lighting control system only. It is always
the electrical installer's responsibility to ensure that the control system is installed in a safe manner
using suitable equipment in line with the latest edition of the electrical regulations.
These cable types have been tested and approved for use with Rapid systems. Should any other non-
approved cable type be used then CP Electronics will not accept responsibility for non-functioning
systems.
Ensure the cable chosen are appropriately rated for install to run with mains cables if they are be
installed within the same compartments. Otherwise they may need to run within data voltage rated
cables instead.
Recommended cable options in order of preference.

SWITCH CONNECTIONS
The length of cable between switches and LCMs should not be more than 40 metres.
For plugged LCMs you can have combinations of up to 5 centre retractive or stayput action . DIN rail products can
have up to 4 switches. Any switch input can activate any LCM output on any LCM within the system.

power to a maximum of either 3 microwave detectors or 6 PIR detectors. You can connect combinations of
microwave and PIR detectors, but this power limitation means that if you connect 1 microwave detector you can only
have a maximum of 4 PIRs; if you have 2 microwave detectors you can have a maximum of 2 PIRs.

FLOOR NETWORK CONNECTIONS

This section shows how to connect LCMs into a network. You also need to connect a 120 Ohm resistor at the
furthest point of each floor network. (As well as an LCM, this point could be a scene selection switch or detector.)
Note that this doesn't apply to DALI networks, which are designed to work without any termination.
Avoid long stub cables connected in a T junction with the main run, as you cannot have more than 20 metres of
unterminated cabling between devices.
Floor networks are polarity sensitive so whatever core colours are used for bus A and bus B must be the same
throughout the network installation .

DIMMING LUMINAIRE CONNECTIONS

For hard-wired installations, wire the box using the terminals provided. Connect permanent Live, Earth and Neutral
connections to the terminals in the wiring compartment. There is an extra set of terminals to loop through the wiring;
these do not have to be used.
For structured cabling installations, connect the structured cabling harness into the appropriate terminals on the
LCM.
These connections are suitable for devices such as:
l DALI/DSI dimmable emergency luminaire

l Dimmable non-emergency luminaire
l 1-10V dimming luminaire, with or without emergency battery pack

BEFORE COMMISSIONING
Continuity test
1. Turn off the power to all the area controllers and LCMs.
2. Set the multimeter set to read Ohms.
3. Measure the resistance between each area controller's bus A and bus B connections for all connected
networks.
If you have continuity the reading should be 60 Ohms, plus or minus any resistance of the cable. The acceptable
range is 48 to 72 Ohms - any other values and you must investigate the cabling before commissioning.

Polarity test
1. Turn on the power to all the area controllers.
2. Set the multimeter to read DC volts,
3. Put one probe onto the Ground (0 volt) terminal and the other on bus A terminal. Note the voltage.
4. Put one probe onto the Ground (0 volt) terminal and the other on bus B terminal. Note the voltage.
The two voltage readings should be the same (approximately 2.5 volts). It is more important that the voltages are the
same than this precise value. If one reading is 2.1 volts and the other is 3.0 volts, this shows an unbalanced voltage
and there is probably a crossover between the bus A and bus B connections in at least one place on the network.
An unbalanced voltage can also be an indication that the network has not been fitted with the requisite 120 ohm
resistors.
To turn the lights on before commissioning

To bring the lights on prior to commissioning, do one of the following:
l Power up the LCMs without the area controller connected. After about 15 minutes all channels will energise.
ALL ON
l Press the button on the area controller.
l Press the button on the area controller. This switches off the fittings on the floor.
l Press the button to dim all dimmable fittings on the floor. This provides a visual indicator if there is a
problem with a dimming connection or ballast, as the fitting will not dim.

PRE-COMMISSIONING CHECKLIST
Only trained engineers can commission a Rapid system. Prior to commissioning, it is the responsibility of the
installing contractor to ensure the following:
ü
□ Are the units connected and installed as detailed on the installation drawings?
□ Is mains power available?
□ Are all luminaires connected?
□ Have you used the correct cable types?
□ Do the fittings match the dimming type?
□ Have the detectors been installed in the correct LCM ports?
□ Has the bus connection been established and the network continuity checked?
