Lockwood Q50076-121 Elevation Window Actuator User Guide

LOCKWOOD Q50076-121 Elevation Window Actuator What Type of System?

• You cannot use a Keypad and Wall Switch on the same system
• Connecting to a ‘Smart Home’ is the same as using a Wall Switch, except, replace the open and close buttons with Relays which get triggered by the Smart Home system

Network Cable

• Network Cable is not provided
• It must be a twisted pair cable
• Shielded cable is recommended to help reduce noise
• Cat 5 or Cat 6 is a readily available cable which is acceptable
• There must be a terminating resistor at each end of the network
•  Resistors come with the Keypad and Network Adaptor
•  Maximum cable length = 300m

Basic Keypad System

• Every device on the system must be connected to the network cable between the two resistors
• Devices can be connected to the network cable in any order
  Note: The number of transformers shown is indicative only. Actual quantity required is dictated by Elevation wiring must be connected in daisy chain (parallel) not as a star connection. If a star layout is used there will be performance issues.”

Basic Wall Switch System

• Every device on the system must be connected to the network cable between the two resistors
• Devices can be connected to the network cable in any order
  Note: The number of transformers shown is indicative only. Actual quantity required is dictated by the full system current draw. Elevation wiring must be connected in daisy chain (parallel) not as a star connection. If a star layout is used there will be performance issues.”

Keypad Connection

• The Keypad comes with a 1m Cable, cut and strip the end to expose the coloured wires as shown
• Keep the Ferrite Ring end to attach to the Keypad
  Note: The data/communication terminals use 5 volts and will be damaged if connected to the power supply

Wall Switch or Smart Home Connection

• Smart home system needs two relay outputs (open and close)
• The relay must be triggered for a 2 second pulse to ensure all windows open or close
  Note: The data/communication terminals use 5 volts and will be damaged if connected to the power supply

Single Actuator Connection

Note: The data/communication terminals use 5 volts and will be damaged if connected to the power supply

Synchronized Actuator Connection

• The Slave Actuator receives communication through the synchronization cable and does not connect to the network cable
• The data/communication terminals use 5 volts and will be damaged if connected to the power supply
  Note: The number of transformers shown is indicative only. The actual quantity required is dictated by the full system current draw

Rain Sensor Connection

• The Network Adaptor must not be installed outside where it can get wet
• The Rain Sensor is designed to be mounted outside where rain will fall on the green/gold surface
  Note: The data/communication terminals use 5 volts and will be damaged if connected to the power supply

Keypad System Cable Lengths

• There must be 1m of cable from the last device at each end of the Network to the terminating resistors
  Note: The number of transformers shown is indicative only. Actual quantity required is dictated by the full system current draw

Wall Switch System Cable Lengths

There must be 1m of cable from the last device at each end of the Network to the terminating resistors
Note: The number of transformers shown is indicative only. Actual quantity required is dictated by the full system current draw

Keypad System Limits

• Keypads must not exceed two per network
• Rain Sensors must not exceed 4 per network
• Windows + Rain Sensors must not exceed 30
  Note: The number of transformers shown is indicative only. The actual quantity required is dictated by the full system current draw

Wall Switch System Limits

• Switches + Rain Sensors must not exceed 4
• Switches + Rain Sensors + Windows must not exceed 30
  Note: The number of transformers shown is indicative only. Actual quantity required is dictated by the full system current draw

Elevation System Single Power Supply

• It is possible to use one large power supply to power multiple devices

Keypad System Power Requirements

• Synchronised Actuators both need 750mA
  Note: The number of transformers shown is indicative only. Actual quantity required is dictated by the full system current draw

Wall Switch System Power Requirements

• Synchronised Actuators both need 750mA
• A Network Adaptor connected to a Rain Sensor draws more current than a Network Adaptor connected to a Wall Switch or Smart Home
• A Network Adaptor connected to a Smart Home (relays) will also draw 100mA
  Note: The number of transformers shown is indicative only. Actual quantity required is dictated by the full system current draw

Elevation System Single Power Supply

• Power supply must always be 24V DC
• Power supply must have a current rating high enough for all devices it is powering
• Electrician must ensure voltage drop does not exceed 1V (must have 23V minimum at all devices)
