Introduction This document describes the hardware setup, software confi guration, administration and operation of the emergency lighting solution for the Redwood Building Intelligence Platform ( platform ). It is intended to supplement the instructions for a typical installation. Prior to undertaking the tasks detailed in this document, you should be familiar with the Redwood platform, including hardware installation, and commissioning and administration as described in the Redwood hardware installation instruction user guides and the Redwood Commissioning and Administration User Guide. In addition to the Redwood components required for LED lighting deployment, the Redwood emergency lighting solution requires specifi c emergency lighting hardware and a director running Redwood software. In order for the emergency lighting solution to be operational, install the Redwood platform and emergency lighting physical infrastructure, then use the Redwood software to commission fi xtures and locations. Next, confi gure the Redwood Emergency Lighting application included with Redwood software. Once confi gured, the platform will self-monitor for an emergency event. If an emergency event is detected, backup power will be directed to specifi ed engines, powering lights connected to fi xtures that are designated as emergency lights. Defi nitions The following terms are used in this document to describe the emergency lighting solution hardware setup, software confi guration, administration and operation: Automatic Transfer Switch ( ATS ) electrical device that manages the load between connected primary and backup power sources. Backup Power emergency electrical power source. Cluster collection of one or more engines that share a system confi guration. Contact Setting primary power state of the ATS/UPS auxiliary contacts. Director Redwood component that provides unifi ed management on a cluster. Emergency Event primary electrical power source failure. Engine Redwood hardware appliance that powers and communicates with fi xtures. Fixture Redwood hardware device (e.g. sensor, gateway) connected to an engine and a light that facilitates communication coming in and out of the platform. Light Redwood Ready LED light connected to a fi xture. Primary Power non-emergency electrical power. Universal Gateway for Emergency Lighting ( EL Gateway ) Redwood hardware device connected to an engine that monitors ATS/UPS for primary power source failure. Uninterruptible Power Supply /Source ( UPS ) electrical device that provides emergency power to a load when the primary power source fails. Zone collection of one or more engines grouped together on the same backup system and controlled by the same power transfer switch. The entire cluster can be located on one zone or separated into multiple zones, depending on available backup power and the number of ATS/UPS devices.

Hardware Setup The emergency lighting solution is compatible with the following Redwood products (Table 1). MID DIR-1-B DIR-1G ENG-3-4834-XXX GW-3Q-XXXXXXXX RG-2G-LED-XXXXXXXX RG-2G-1RELAY-ELCC RG-2G-WH SEN-3M1-X-XXXXXXXX PRODUCT Redwood Director Redwood Engine Redwood LED Gateway Redwood Universal Gateway for Emergency Lighting Redwood Universal Gateway Wiring Harness Redwood LED Sensor Table 1: Redwood products compatible with Emergency Lighting In addition to the standard Redwood platform components (e.g. director, engines, fi xtures and lights), the emergency lighting solution requires the following for each zone: ATS or UPS EL Gateway(s) with Universal Gateway wiring harness Electric switch for hardware simulation test (optional) To confi gure for the emergency lighting application, perform the following: 1. Create zones a. Available backup power and ATS/UPS devices will limit the number of zones. b. ATS/UPS hardware auxiliary contact defaults will determine zone contact setting. 2. Select engines to power emergency lights for each zone. a. Place Emergency Circuits label (included with the engine mounting hardware) on the front of engine(s) that are visible after installation (Figure 1). b. Identify which engine port to connect to an EL gateway. 3. Designate emergency lights for each zone. Figure 1: Emergency Circuits Label Placement Emergency Lighting Setup, Confi guration and Administration 3
In order for the system to monitor for primary power failure, an EL Gateway must be connected to every engine assigned to a zone, and all the gateways must be daisy-chained wired together (Figure 2). Figure 2: Configuration Wiring Diagram NOTE: Because the Emergency Lighting application confi guration is dependent on the physical hardware setup, moving sensors and gateways to different ports may adversely impact functionality. Software Setup After the Redwood platform components and emergency lighting hardware have been installed, commission the cluster fi xtures and locations. Next, using the Redwood software, designate a user with emergency lighting administration rights. See the Redwood Commissioning and Administration User Guide for more details.
