Items to consider when locating Masters/Range Extenders:
• There can only be one Master per control group
• Coverage area, as shown in Figures 7 and 8
• Clear line of sight from Master/Range Extender location to all main room entrances,
exits and areas where occupancy detection is required
• Room obstructions such as pillars, walls, lockers, piping, etc.
• Proper clearance around the mounting location
• The ZAURA Master should be the only unit to determine light levels in the room and
to turn off the Virtual Dimming Luminaries
• To better detect room light levels, the Master can be located closer to a natural light
source
• A Range Extender does not evaluate the natural light levels in an area
• Mounting material (wood vs. concrete vs. brick vs. porous ceiling panels)
• Relatively dry area
• Is there a requirement to have motion detection in every part of the room?
Determine Luminary Configuration
The ZAURA system for fluorescent lighting is very flexible to meet the lighting and
energy savings requirements for different situations. Figure 9 (also see
Appendix A on
page 44) illustrates how rooms can be configured. In the figure, the term ZAURA repre-
sents ZAURA Starters in the luminaries.
