LCU NEMA Galaxy
The LCU NEMA Galaxy is an external luminaire control device which is installed on top of the luminaire
cover into a standard NEMA socket. Control features offer On/Off and dimming level operations.
Monitoring features include identification of lamp and electrical issues and measurement of electrical
parameters.
The LCU NEMA Galaxy uses standard NEMA socket “twist and lock” installation on top of a pole or
luminaire cover, according to ANSI C136.10 and C136.41 specifications.
Standard Features
• Light sensor - Operates as a photocell with the integrated microcontroller and is used as a backup light
control in the event of microcontroller failure.
• Energy meter - Continuous measurement collection and aggregation.
• Integrated RF antenna.
• Over the air firmware updates.
• Each unit is configurable as a repeater, resulting in one additional ‘hop’ from the DCU.
• Real Time Clock (only when connected to the system or when unit received its time zone from the
system and operates with GPS)
• Network data is protected by AES 128 encryption.
• Relay Control for LED driver/ballast power.
• Uses licensed frequency.
• Built in GPS receiver for auto-commissioning
• “Auto Detection and Verification” Software
“Auto Detection and Verification” Software
The LCU NEMA includes the Telematics “Auto Detection and Verification” software that automatically
detects and stores the ballast type (1-10V or DALI) in the LCU. The ballast type is then retrieved during the
commissioning process, thereby eliminating the need to enter it manually into the CMS (auto detection
process also occur each time the power turns on from off state)
