IntroductionThe ZBOX is a multi-functional kit consisting of the ZBOX-CONTROLLER and several ZBOX CIRCLE control units��The ZBOX is equipped with nine luminaire control outputs and one motor control output, five inputs for control units, two inputs for potential-free switches as well as keys�� It allows for connection to a LUXMATE bus�� The ZBOX is thus ideally suited to cater for a wide range of applications�� Thanks to the pluggable ZBOX-DIMMER300 phase dimmer, the ZBOX offers unrivalled flexibility so that it can be easily adjusted to the needs of new light-ing solutions without occurring high conversion costs�� The ZBOX is thus the ideal solution for hotel rooms and suites��

As all inputs, outputs and group functions are factory-configured, the ZBOX is essentially a plug & play device, in particular when installed in hotel rooms�� The room lighting can be adjusted easily and quickly by the guests themselves�� Reading in bed, watching television from the couch or relaxing in the bath – for each activity and each room, patrons can simply press a button to call up the respective scene�� To make the system work, all you need to do is connect the luminaires and blinds to the outputs of the ZBOX, while the control units must be connected to the inputs��

General information regarding the luXMaTe bus technology

LUXMATE bus (LM bus) Two-wire transmission system for the exchange of information and data between the inputs and outputs connected to the LUXMATE bus�� The LUXMATE bus must be powered separately��

Address The LUXMATE bus technology uses a hierarchical addressing system�� Each output is assigned a unique R / G / B address�� R stands for room, G stands for group and B stands for the bus of each output, sensor or individual command device�� The outputs are factory-configured with address R127 / G0 / B0�� They are subsequently addressed upon commissioning�� Inputs or control units are assigned unique R / G addresses and subsystem types�� The address and the subsystem type define the effective range and the subsystems to be operated��

Production number Each output on the LUXMATE bus is assigned a unique serial number known as the production number (P number)��

Subsystem type Defines the subsystem to be controlled�� Each subsystem is controlled with at least one subsystem type�� Examples for subsystem types: light, light colour, blind, window�� The subsystem type also defines the sensor input type, e��g�� outside temperature, wind speed��

Main ZboX features

• Eight outputs with one switching relay each and a DALI and phase dimmer output (300 W) for the dimming of luminaire groups��

• One output with a switching relay and one DALI output for the dimming of luminaire groups�� The DALI output can also be used for the dynamic control of colour luminaires��

• One output for the control of a motor (e��g�� blind, curtain)��• Five inputs for the connection of ZBOX-Cxx control units�� • One input for the direct connection of a potential-free key card switch��• One input for the direct connection of potential-free conventional standard and momentary action switches��• One connection for the LUXMATE bus for the integration of the ZBOX-CONTROLLER into a network with

other LUXMATE bus components or into a building-wide control and monitoring system��• One Ethernet TCP/IP network interface of the connection of the ZBOX-CONTROLLER to a PC, e��g�� for

configuration by means of the ZBOX��WEBTOOL��• Energy-saving mode: if a key card is pulled out, the ZBOX-CONTROLLER is automatically set to standby

mode��

Automation Automation enables system owners to determine the behaviour of one or more outputs by setting values (e��g�� sensor values) and the entering parameter values�� Automation can be timer-controlled, daylight-controlled or event-controlled�� The LUXMATE LRA-1500 room automation processor is a central automation module�� In the installation scheme of the LUXMATE automation processor, the ZBOX-CONTROLLER is represented with 10 production numbers and 10 addresses��

Topology The topology of the LUXMATE system is defined on the basis of the actual requirements�� The ZBOX-CONTROLLER is connected to the LUXMATE bus��

Outputs 1-8The outputs 1-8 can be used as separate relays, DALI or phase dimmer outputs, depending on the user's needs�� The DALI and phase dimmer connectors can be connected to the same output�� If DALI and / or phase dimmer outputs are used, the relay output serves exclusively for the disconnection of the facility from the power mains�� After initialisation by pressing the test button (located in the side panel of the housing), the ZBOX-CONTROLLER automatically detects the type of equipment connected to it and adjusts its operation accordingly��

Output 9This output can be used as a DALI or as a relay output�� Parallel operation as a DALI and relay output is not possible�� It is also possible to connect colour light sources to the DALI output instead of standard luminaires�� These colour luminaires are controlled by means of colour curves��Up to 16 DALI loads may be connected�� To use a colour curve, the electronic ballast with colour light sources must be addressed prior to the commissioning of the ZBOX-CONTROLLER as follows:

Red light source �� DALI group address 1Green light source �� DALI group address 2Blue light source �� DALI group address 3White light source �� DALI group address 4

The ZBOX-CONTROLLER interprets the colour of the lamp based on the pre-addressed ballasts (DALI group address) and adjusts its operation to the respective colour curve or to standard luminaires�� By calling up the "Wellness" scene, a colour curve is started�� If the facility includes only standard luminaires, the preset bright-ness value is activated��

basic functions (hotel room)

Note: ! Additional project-specific colour curves can be set up��

Output 10 (shading device)This output is designed for the connection and operation of a blinds or curtains motor with 2 mechanical limit switches�� Intermediate positions can only be reached by manual interference��

Input Y (door closing contact)This input can for example be used to connect a door contact or a presence sensor�� By default, the input is configured for the "Welcome" scene�� It is possible to set up project-specific functions�� Switching to standby mode is not possible��



Crash-ChannelIn the event of a defect of the ZBOX-CONTROLLER, output 3 remains powered, so that the luminaire connected to this output provides some light in the room�� This is however only possible, if there if there is mains power and the relay at output 3 is not defective��

Input Z (key card)This input can be used to connect a key card switch�� When the key card is plugged in, the "Welcome" scene is called up; when the card is removed, the "All off" scene is called up�� If the key card is removed, the ZBOX-CONTROLLER is in standby mode (can be activated/deactivated in ZBOX��WEBTOOL)�� The control units con-nected to the inputs of the ZBOX-CONTROLLER are disabled�� If no key card switch is used, the Z input must be equipped with a wire bridge or deactivated with the ZBOX��WEBTOOL software��

Input Z (key card)This input can be used to connect a key card switch�� When the key card is plugged in, the "Welcome" scene is called up; when the card is removed, the "All off" scene is called up�� If the key card is removed, the ZBOX- CONTROLLER is in standby mode (can be activated/deactivated in ZBOX��WEBTOOL)�� The control units con-nected to the inputs of the ZBOX-CONTROLLER are disabled�� If no key card switch is used, the Z input must be equipped with a wire bridge or deactivated with the ZBOX��WEBTOOL software��

Prevention of electro smog (mains disconnection)If the "Off" scene (0 %) is called up, the relay contact outputs at each luminaire output disconnect the oper-ating devices from the power supply�� This prevents unnecessary electromagnetic fields and energy consump-tion in standby mode�� If required for certain projects, the shutting down of the power supply to the operating devices can be disabled�� In this case, the relay contacts remain closed��

Standby modesHalf-standby: Set the micro switch on the motherboard (beside the LM bus terminal) to half-standby mode��When the key card is disconnected, the power supply to the inputs/outputs is off�� The LUXMATE bus interface remains however active�� It is thus possible to operate the ZBOX-CONTROLLER through the LUXMATE bus�� In order to release the half-standby function, you must first activate the standby mode in the ZBOX-WEBTOOL��

Full standby:Set the micro switch on the motherboard (beside the LM bus terminal) to full standby mode��If the key card is removed, it is not possible to operate the facility or to access it via the LUXMATE bus�� The full-standby function is always activated, irrespective of the settings in the ZBOX-WEBTOOL��

In certain situations, it is practical and useful that one scene can be called depending on another scene�� One example is the use of a hotel room by two persons and where one wishes to watch TV, while the other wants to read in bed�� By making the scenes interdependent, the ZBOX ensures that the guests get what they expect or desire��

Linked and independent scenes can be configured with the ZBOX��WEBTOOL��

possible linked scenes

Reading left, reading right and working��Current scenes: "Bright", "TV" or "Welcome": The associated luminaire (bed left, bed right, table), is set to the defined actuating value of the selected scene (reading left, reading right and working)�� The status LED of the control unit is on, in addition to the active scene "Bright" or "TV"�� Press the scene button again to switch off the respective luminaire�� The status LED is switched off (for addi-tional configuration options, see chapter "Circle setting", page 32)��

Current scene: "OFF":The desired scene is called up irrespective of any other scenes, and overwrites all current settings in the entire room��

possible independent scenes

Bright, TV, wellness, welcome, off and all offThese scenes always overwrite the current settings of the lighting in the respective room��

4�� What is the minimum load that must be connected to the phase dimmers?• 20 W

5�� Can I use the system to switch other devices than luminaires, such as an electric underfloor heating system or a TV set?

• Yes; you must however ensure that the maximum load does not exceed 300 W��• The program of the networked ZBOX-CONTROLLER must be adjusted by a service technician, as the

channel identification upon delivery is based on luminaire loads, which would result in an incorrect identification code in a network system��

• We recommend using an external relay or contactor and to connect the load through these power contacts (with separated and insulated phases, if required)��

6�� Can I connect a second control unit that is synchronised with the first one to the inputs A to E?• Yes; maximum 2 ZBOX-CXX control points may be connected to one input��

7�� What colours are included in the colour curve of output 9?

Light source Colour curve Effect

Red-green-blue Colour wheel The light adjusts itself along the three primaries and the respective mixed colours, e��g�� blue-purple-red-orange-yellow-green-turquoise-blue, etc��

Red-green, green-blue, blue-red

PingPong The light adjusts itself along the two primaries and the respec-tive mixed colours, e��g�� red-yellow-green-yellow-red, etc��

Red or blue or green Pulse Alternating change in brightness between 1 and 100 %

• When using only single colours, they are only dimmed up and down (pulse dimming)��• Special colour curves can be programmed to suit specific projects��



8�� How can I adjust the speed at which a colour curve is run? How can I stop a colour curve?• Press and release the wellness button (scene call) of the control unit in the bathroom to start the colour

curve��• Press the right dimming rocker key to change the colour curve of the wellness luminaire��

• Press the lower section of the dimming rocker key to halt the colour curve at the current colour�� • Press the lower section of the dimming rocker key to call up one defined colour after the other�� • Press the upper section of the dimming rocker key to change the time of the colour curve to 1 min,

12 min, 6 min, 3 min, 1min, 12 min ��

9�� How can I design scenes that vary depending on the actual time of day?• Connect the ZBOX-CONTROLLER through the LUXMATE bus to the LM-ZSM time control device�� The

LM-ZSM provides the ZBOX-CONTROLLER with the time information for daytime-based control�� • Night scenes (dimmed light) are only activated, if the time period for night scenes has been configured in

the ZBOX��WEBTOOL software, the key card is plugged in and scene "OFF" is called up�� During this period, the night scenes 11 to 18 are called up instead of the day scenes 1 to 8��

• The bus power supply must be implemented with a LM-BVx��

10�� What key card switch properties are required?• The system works with conventional key card switches�� These are switches that are operated permanently

when a key card is inserted��

11�� How can I operate more than one shading device?• Option 1: You have the option to connect a JSW motor switch to output 10�� Subsequently, up to 4 motors

can be connected to the LUXMATE JSW (20975106)�� All motors are operated together, and additional addressing is not required��

• Option 2: Connect the required number of LUXMATE bus blinds devices�� In this case, programming/addressing is required�� The blinds or curtains can only be operated simultaneously, as there is only one button per ZBOX CIRCLE control unit��

12�� How can I change the settings of a fully installed ZBOX facility?• The settings can be adjusted with the ZBOX��WEBTOOL��• Subsequently, read this data from the ZBOX-CONTROLLER and save it in a configuration file on the PC�� The

new settings can now be copied to another ZBOX-CONTROLLER��

13�� How can I connect two or three ZBOX-CONTROLLERs?• Option 1: Connection via LUXMATE bus�� For this purpose, a bus system with bus power supply, etc�� must

be installed�� For details, consult your Zumtobel system specialist��• Option 2: Use a multi-pin key card switch whose contacts are each wired to one ZBOX-CONTROLLER�� As a

result, the systems are separated but can be operated in synchronicity��

14�� What is the standby power consumption of the ZBOX-CONTROLLER?The ZBOX-CONTROLLER has two standby modes:• Full standby – power consumption 1 W�� This mode is not available for networked ZBOX-CONTROLLERs��• Half standby – power consumption 5 W�� This mode is used for networked ZBOX-CONTROLLERs, in order to

ensure that commands and queries from a central control point are processed��• When switched on, the power consumption of the ZBOX-CONTROLLER is 10 W�� For each

ZBOX-DIMMER300, the consumption is increased by 0��7 W��


franç

engl

ish


15�� What happens if the ZBOX-CONTROLLER is defective?In the event of a defect of the ZBOX-CONTROLLER, output 3 (crash channel) remains powered, so that the luminaire connected to this output provides some light in the room�� This is however only possible, if there is mains power and the relay at output 3 is not defective��


Use in building sections made in flame-retardant or not flammable materials • The ZBOX housing must be secured with screws to a sturdy structure��• Ensure that there is sufficient space for the insertion of the cables��• Ensure that there is sufficient air convection (do not place covers or other obstructing structures over the

housing)�� Provide ventilation slots��

DALIDigital Addressable Lighting Interface Standardised interface for the control of operating devices��

DALI loadDALI-compatible lamp operating device, such as electronic ballast or electronic transformer�� Normally, each lamp operating device counts as one DALI load�� For details, refer to the technical data��

Line lengthMax�� permissible length of DALI control line from a DALI power supply point to the most remote consumer (control unit, actuator, etc��) taking into account the line cross-section��

Luminaire groupGroup of luminaires that are jointly addressed and subsequently controlled together��

RGBAdditive colour mixing scheme based on the primaries red, green and blue�� If the luminaire also includes a white light source, it is referred to as a RGBW luminaire��

Standby modesZBOX-CONTROLLER is switched off�� Half standby: If the key card is removed, the power supply to the inputs/outputs is shut down�� The controller board of the ZBOX-CONTROLLER and the LUXMATE bus interface remain however powered�� It is thus possible to operate the ZBOX-CONTROLLER through the LUXMATE bus�� Full standby: If the key card is removed, it is not possible to operate the facility or to access it via the LUXMATE bus from a central control point��

Wellness luminaireA colour luminaire consists of four or less single light sources (RGBW)�� Colour luminaires that include for example only red and blue can only produce a limited colour palette��
