Commissioning mode
Once all devices have been correctly installed and the main control panel powered up, the
system is ready for commissioning.
Prior to the visit of the commissioning engineer, the autolearn function on the control panel
should be used to allocate addresses to each connected Easicheck device and to ensure that
the panel can correctly communicate with all connected devices.
During autolearn, the panel will interrogate each connected device in turn and allocate it with an
address corresponding with its position on the loop (e.g. The first device will be allocated
address 1, the second device address 2, the third device allocated address 3 etc.)
Once the system has been successfully autolearned, the next process is to configure and
program the panel.
This ensures that appropriate test schedules are set up, that correct test parameters are set up
for each luminaire and that device text is allocated to each Easicheck device.
This can either be done by a Cooper Lighting service engineer using a laptop computer with
specialist software, or it can be done manually via the touchscreen.
On large systems, a considerable time saving can be achieved by utilising the Cooper Lighting
and Safety commissioning service, whereby a laptop computer running purpose designed
software is used enabling data to be speedily entered and the system to be quickly configured
as required. In any event a commissioning by a trained Cooper Lightnig and Safety engineer is
always recommended.
In either case, whether the touch screen is used to configure the system, or the system is
configured by a Cooper Lighting commissioning engineer using a laptop computer, it is vitally
important to know which address has been assigned to each luminaire. In order to ensure that
the correct data is assigned to each address.
For details of activating autolearn mode, see page 38
Important Note
In order to know which address has been given to each fitting, it is essential to know the
order in which the fittings are wired, starting at loop start and finishing at loop finish.
