Introduction
This release note details the SU-4 sensor firmware release 5.7.10, which adds features and fixes issues found with earlier firmware releases. This release supersedes previous releases for all SU-4 sensors.
This release is designed to be compatible with Enlighted’s other products. The Firmware Compatibility Matrix outlines the firmware compatibility with other products in the Enlighted portfolio.
Caution
The maximum number of 2-Wire drivers connected to a sensor is limited to five, by design. This firmware release and future firmware releases will not change this limitation.
5.7.10 New Features
The 5.7.10 firmware release provides the following new features which will be addressed in Manage 4.6 Release.
The Daylight Group feature of Enlighted connected lighting solution works well for slow changes in natural daylight over course of the day for large area lighting, even across multiple floors or buildings. But certain scenarios show the limits of the current implementation and so improvements were made.
A building with “Smart Shades” is the first, exemplary use case to consider. Smart Shades refer to all manner of interior motorized curtains, or interior motorized venetian blinds, or external motorized shutters or rollup shades. The smart shades may be adjusted or opened or closed with the press of a button, or on an automatic schedule.
“Smart Shades” option for faster response to ambient light changes by Daylight Group in buildings with automatic shutters. Daylight Groups may be created which configure faster ambient light reporting by sensor.
Manage will provide option for User to create new Daylight Groups with FAST response (typically 20 seconds). All existing Daylight Groups have SLOW response (typically 150 seconds).
Enhancements and Fixes
This firmware release enhanced the following features/behavior, relative to CMv5.6.2.
- Sensors in either motion group or switch group will be synchronized with occupancy/vacancy lighting changes within 15 seconds.
- At start-up, sensors with astronomical clock schedules will update reliably after receiving astronomical times from the EM.
Limitations and Known Issues
By design, SU-4 sensors with 2-wire drivers must support linear dimming curve.
Sensor Startup Behavior
The table below summarizes the expected startup behavior for this release based on the sensor’s operating state.
|
Commissioned
|
Not Commissioned
|
On Power Cycle
|
Skip wiring test, skip 100% full on for 2 minutes, start normal operation
|
Wiring test runs first 5 power cycles
After wiring test completes the sensor sets fixture LED to 100% full on for 2 minutes.
After the 2-minute full on completes the sensor sets light level to default max and is ready for commissioning.
After first 5 cycles, wiring test is bypassed and the 2-minute full on is bypassed.
|
On Reboot command from Manage/EM
|
Skip wiring test, skip 100% full on for 2 minutes, start normal operation
|
NA
Sensor that is not commissioned will not accept command to reboot
|
On Initiate Driver Discovery Command from Manage/EM
|
Run driver discovery and wiring test, start normal operation. Note that 100% full on for 2 minutes will not run after wiring test completes.
|
NA
Sensor that is not commissioned will not accept command for driver discovery
|
Delete Sensor from Manage/EM
|
Initialize wiring test count. Set LED indication to reflect last run wiring test result.
Note that upon next power cycle, the sensor will perform similarly to what was described for sensor that is not commissioned.
|
NA
Sensor that is not commissioned will not accept delete sensor command.
|
Sensor LED Status Summary
The table below summarizes the sensor status based on the LED behavior.
Sensor LED
|
Status
|
No LED
|
The commissioned sensor does not detect motion
No LED for an un-commissioned sensor or a commissioned sensor with motion is an indication of a power issue or faulty sensor
|
Solid Green
|
The un-commissioned sensor has powered up successfully and passed the wiring test.
|
Green Flash
|
The commissioned sensor has powered up and has detected motion.
|
Solid Red
|
Sensor fault – replace the sensor
|
Blinking Red
|
The un-commissioned sensor has powered up and detected a wiring test issue
|
Solid Blue
|
Commissioned or un-commissioned sensor has received a request to identify itself
|
Blinking Blue
|
The un-commissioned sensor was not able to detect an energy measurement device (Control Unit or Driver).
|
Supported Sensors
This release supports the following sensors:
- SU-4E
- SU-4S-H
- SU-4S-LRW
- SU-4S-HRW
- SU-4S-LBW
- FS-D22
- CS-D2
This includes all 6-wire and 2-wire variants of these sensors.
Supported Upgrade Paths
This release supports the SU-4E/SU-4S sensor firmware upgrades directly from firmware versions 3.4.0, 3.6.6, 5.1.32, 5.3.6, and 5.5. FS-D22/CS-D2 sensor firmware upgrades from versions 3.4.0, 3.6.6, 3.8.0, 5.1.32, 5.3.6, 5.5 and 5.6.2 are supported.
For other sensor firmware versions, contact Enlighted Customer Support for additional information.
An updated Compatibility List for this release supports automatic upgrades with the Energy Manager to this version.
Note that once sensors have been updated to 5.x versions, downgrades to 3.x version are not possible due to changes in the structure of the configuration data.
Firmware Compatibility
The table below provides the supported releases, including the recommended device firmware versions to be used with this release.
The following components are needed for specific functionality
- Manage version 4.5.x and later is required to support Smart Shades option.
- Manage/EM version 3.9.12 and later is required in order to provide Advanced Profile option “When motion is detected, ramp up to target ambient light level over 3 seconds”.
For product versions not found in the table above, contact Enlighted Support for the latest compatibility recommendations.
