UID8450, UID8460

ZigBee Green Power family

Product guide

UID8450, UID8460
ZigBee Green Power switch and scene selector• No wiring and power connections required so easy toinstall and maintenance free.
• Low mechanical force required to operate the device(typically less than 8 Newton).
• Indoor distance that can be covered is typically 10m.
for line-of-sight installations. When there are walls thiswill be reduced depending on the type and thickness ofthe walls.

UID8450, UID8460• The Philips ZigBee Green Power (ZGP) family
consists out of 2 devices.
• One device UID8450 has switch and dim
functionality and the other UID8460 has scene
selection, including Off, functionality.
• Both devices communicate wirelessly conformthe ZigBee Pro standard (IEEE 802.15.4, WPAN).
There is no need to connect to any electrical power
supply as the devices generate their own power, tocommunicate, when one of the buttons is pressed(kinetic energy).
• When a button is pressed, or released, a message issend including a unique 32bit identifier preventing
interfering with other devices. The receiving device,for example ActiLume Wireless DALI gen2, candetect the time difference between the “press” and“release” action and react on that. For example
when wanting to perform the function switching,
the time interval between “press” and “release” isshort and the receiving device can react on that in
the appropriate way.
• The devices can be linked into for example anetwork formed with ActiLume Wireless DALI gen2system(s).
• The devices are easy to install and use. Additional
information can be found in the appropriate
installation instruction and ActiLume Wireless DALI
gen2 application guide.

3Application
Applications

UID8450The ZigBee Green Power devices are ideally suitedfor indoor use such as offices, lobbies, toilets andcorridors, and covered industry areas.

The UID8450 is the switch and dim device from theZGP family.
Briefly pressing the upper or lower part of the device
will either switch, the indirectly connected light(s), Onor Off.
A press and hold action will engage the dim-up ordim-down function.

Commissioning (linking)
Before the ZGP devices can be used they have tobe linked into an existing network. For the UID8450
the rocker/button needs to be removed before
the procedure to link it into the network can beperformed. For details on the linking procedure referto installation instructions or application guides.
Philips quality
This ensures quality with respect to:• System supplier• As manufacturer of lamps, electronic control gearand lighting control equipment, Philips ensuresthat, from the earliest development stage, optimum
performance is maintained.
• International standards• Philips lighting control equipment complies with all
relevant international rules and regulations.

UID8460
The UID8460 is the scene selector, including switch
Off, device from the ZGP family.
Briefly pressing one out of three buttons will initiatea scene preset recall and indirectly connected light(s)will respond accordingly. There are three light levels
and a lights Off function available. Please note that it
is not possible to set scene levels as this device only
has a recall function.

Wireless communication
The Wireless network is based on the ZigBee PRO
standard (IEEE 802.15.4, WPAN) which is targeted
at radio-frequency (RF) applications. The ZigBeestandard operates at 2.4 GHz in most regions
worldwide and is supported by multiple HW/SWvendors. The ZigBee protocol enables fully distributed
peer-to-peer communication models. This means nomaster/slave relationship whereby the application isdivided over the devices in the network. Every device
knows how it functions within the network. The result
is that if one device does not function (removed ordefect), the remaining devices keep functioning asintended. The network is based on a mesh network
so the devices pass on the received commands. The
distance between the devices should not exceed
10 meter. The big advantage of this mesh networkis the capability that the network has a self-healingrouting meaning automatic route discovery overthe mesh network. ZigBee has tolerance for a large
number of co-located networks due to use of multiple
communication channels and CSMA-CA channel
access. The commands do have network security
according to AES 128-bits network encryption.
The ZGP devices work seamlessly with ActiLume
Wireless DALI gen2 systems making the network evenmore flexible and expandable.

Application example
This example is a network, in an open plan office,with one UID8450 ZGP switch, mounted near themain entrance door (1), and one UID8460 ZGP scene
selector, mounted against the outer wall, combinedwith six ActiLume Wireless DALI gen2 systems andone OccuSwitch Wireless (OSW) multi-sensor that are
mounted in/against the ceiling.
Upon entering the office, through the main door(1), motion is detected by the PIR of the ActiLume
Wireless DALI gen2 system that is close to theentrance. Occupancy (motion) is relayed across thenetwork to the other ActiLume Wireless DALI gen2systems and all lights in the office area will switch Onwith the light level related to scene-1. If desired thelight-level can be dimmed-up or down by keeping
the upper or lower button of the UID8450 depressed.
Each action on the UID8450 will send a message
towards the ActiLume Wireless DALI gen2 systems, inthis case to dim the light level. The message is relayed
across the network and all luminaires will reactaccordingly.
With the buttons on the UID8460 three light-levels
can be selected with the settings of respectively
scene-1, 2 or 3. The fourth button on this device
can be used to switch the lights Off if for example apresentation with a beamer needs to take place or if
the amount of daylight ingress is sufficient. Also herea message is send towards the ActiLume Wireless
DALI gen2 systems and is relayed across the network.
Assuming that the light has been switched Off(manual override is active) they will stay off as long as
occupancy is detected. Once there is no occupancy
being detected the hold timer is activated followed by
the prolong timer. If the prolong timer has expired themanual override is deactivated and the system goesback into the automatic mode.
The office has an additional entrance (3). Persons thatenter the storage area through entrance (2) will trigger
the PIR, of the OSW multi-sensor, and this occupancy(motion) signal is relayed towards the ActiLume
Wireless DALI gen2 systems. If the lights in the office
were Off they will switch On and the windows of thestorage area will let enough light pass through toilluminate that area for both storing activities as wellas passing through towards the office area throughentrance (3). Once the office is entered the light levelcan be selected with either the UID8450 or UID8460
device. In case that the lights in the office area werealready On the storage area is sufficiently illuminatedand the motion detection does not initiate a light levelchange.
