HLC format is a defined structure for configuring, programming, and operating all the HLC lighting devices in your home. HLC uses UPB technology which is a new powerline communications standard for lighting and home control. UPB is a robust, two-way digital powerline carrier communications protocol which transmits signals over the existing wires in a home. Home Automation, Inc. New Orleans, LA Phone Fax

2 HLC Setup The following OmniLT Setup items must be configured for HLC: UPB Network ID: The Network ID is a unique number between 1 and 255 which identifies your UPB Network. To configure the UPB Network ID, from the Setup>>Installer>>Control menu, select the 1 (CTRL) key. Scroll to UPB Network ID: UPB NETWORK ID: Enter the UPB Network ID (1-255) followed by the ' # ' key. UPB Password: The Network Password is a 4-digit number between 0001-FFFF that is used to protect your UPB network from unauthorized changes to the internal settings of your UPB devices. UPB PASSWORD: FFFF Enter the UPB Password (0000-FFFF) followed by the ' # ' key. To enter the digits A-F, first press the OFF key, then press the 0-5 key respectively (i.e. 1A2B = 1 OFF 0 2 OFF 1 #). UPB Status Time (Status Tracking): When using HLC, Status Tracking is used to update the status of each HLC device in a room whenever a scene is executed in that room. For example, the scene A button is pushed on a Room Controller in the Living Room. All of the lighting loads in the Living Room are changed, but the status for the individual lighting loads isn t updated in OmniLT until a status request message is sent to each unit. When Status Tracking is enabled, this is done automatically after a scene is executed. The value set for the UPB Status Time is the amount of seconds that the OmniLT controller waits before requesting status after a scene is executed. By default, the time is set to 5 seconds. This gives lighting loads (with varying fade rates) the necessary time to settle down before the status is requested. UPB STATUS TIME: SECONDS Enter for 1 to 255 seconds. Enter 0 to disable Status Tracking. Note: Status Tracking must be enabled for OmniLT to accurately set the LED indicators on Room and House Controllers. Page 2

10 OmniLT Version 2.6 Firmware Release ADD THIS DOCUMENT TO YOUR OMNILT INSTALLATION MANUAL Description The OmniLT Version 2.6 firmware adds the following new features: Support for UPB (Universal Powerline Bus) Technology Added ability to disable Bypass/Restore digital communicator reports when using Contact ID Added ability to disable individual digital communicator zone reports when using Contact ID UPB is a new powerline communications standard for lighting and home control. UPB is a robust, two-way digital powerline carrier communications protocol which transmits signals over the existing wires in a home. UPB signals are transmitted using a digital pulse (pulse position modulation) instead of a 120 khz tone over the existing house wiring. The UPB pulse has a broad frequency spectrum, about 4 to 40 khz, which travels better on the powerline. Attenuation on the powerline is lower at UPB frequencies and less susceptible to noise. UPB can coexist peacefully with X-10 systems, intercoms, baby monitors, speakers, etc. that communicate over the powerline. Required Equipment HAI OmniLT, OmniLT, or OmniPro II Controller: Version 2.6 or later firmware is required. HAI Model 10A17-1 Serial Interface Module: The PCS Serial PIM will not work with built-in serial ports on the OmniLT controller. It must be used with the Model 10A17-1 Serial Interface Module. UPB Powerline Interface Module Serial (PIM-S): Available from PCS and/or its distributors. To work with OmniLT, the PIM must be Version 4.15 or later and it must be the Serial version (not the USB version). The PCS Serial PIM comes with the proper cable for the 10A17-1 Serial Module. UPB Switches, Modules, and/or Keypad Controllers: Available from PCS and/or its distributors. UPB UPStart Setup Tool Software: Free download from PCS ( UPB switches, modules, and keypad controllers are configured using the UPB UPStart program running on a PC while connected to the PIM. Instructions on installing, configuring, and operating UPB UPStart and PCS UPB devices are available from PCS. This document will give you some general guidelines for configuring UPB devices with UPB UPStart for optimal communications with the OmniLT controller. Note: Although the UPB protocol is extremely robust and less susceptible to powerline conditions, for professional installations, HAI recommends the use of a UPB Phase Coupler. Home Automation, Inc.

13 Digital Communicator Setup Report Bypass / Restore: A new item has been added to Setup>>Installer>>DCM to enable/disable reporting to the central station when a zone is bypassed or restored when using Contact ID. The communicator can be configured to send bypass/restore signals to the central station when using Contact ID. Whenever a zone is bypassed, the communicator will send a zone bypassed report to the central station. When a zone is restored, the communicator will send a zone restored report to the central station. REPORT BYPASS/REST: 1 0=NO 1=YES To disable the communicator from sending bypass and restore reports to the central station, select the 0 (NO) key. Disable Individual Zone Reports: A new feature has been added that allows you to disable digital communicator reporting for specific zones when using Contact ID. Previously, Contact ID reports whenever any zone is tripped, goes in trouble, or is bypassed and restored. Now, a zone can be configured to never report when a zone is tripped, goes into trouble, or is bypassed and restored. When using Contact ID, if the DCM code (under the 4/2 and 3/1 Alarm Code Formats) is set to anything other than 0 or 00, then OmniLT reports the typical Contact ID report code. However, if the DCM code (under the 4/2 and 3/1 Alarm Code Formats) is set to 0 or 00, then OmniLT will not make a call to the central station to report that code. To disable digital communicating reporting for a specific zone, set the alarm code to 0 or 00. ZONE 1 ALARM CODE: 00 0-FF THROUGH ZONE 25 ALARM CODE: 00 0-FF Enter the alarm code (0 or 00) and then press ' # ' to disable the zone from reporting to the central station. Page 13
