HAI Lighting Control (HLC) Format

HAI Lighting Control (HLC) combines HAI UPB™ Wall Switches, Dimmers, and Modules, HAI UPB™ Room Controllers, and
HAI UPB™ House Controllers to create lighting scenes that set the proper mood and ambiance for various activities.

HLC format is a defined structure for configuring, programming, and operating all the HLC lighting devices in your home. Each
“House Code” that is configured to use the HLC format consists of 2 rooms with up to 8 HLC devices in each room. OmniPro II
supports up to 31 rooms of HLC lighting. OmniPro II can control up to 248 HLC devices.

HAI manufactured UPB™ devices (collectively referred to as HLC devices) can be configured using an Omni console or
OmniTouch touchscreen connected to the OmniPro II controller. Other UPB™ devices may be used in the HLC structure, but
cannot be configured using the OmniPro II controller; they must be configured using a PC running the UPB™ UPStart
configuration software –

About Rooms

Each “room” of HLC lighting consists of 8 consecutive unit numbers, starting at Unit 1 (i.e. Room 1 = Units 1-8, Room 2 = Units
9-16, Room 3 = Units 17-24, etc.). Each room can consist of a maximum of 8 HLC devices, configured as follows:

Up to 7 HAI UPB™ Wall Switches, Dimmers, and/or Modules (for controlling up to 7 lighting loads in a room or area)

1 or more Room Controllers (set a scene in a room, turn the room on and off, and dim and brighten the room)

1 House Controller (for controlling up to 8 rooms of HLC lighting)

1 or more House Controllers (used as a general purpose 8 button keypad controllers)

The first unit number in each room (i.e. 1, 9, 17, 25, etc.) is reserved for controlling the room. The name for this unit should
reflect the room name (e.g. Kitchen, Great Room, Theater, etc.) HLC Wall Switches, Dimmers, or Modules cannot be
programmed to these unit numbers. If one or more Room Controllers are used, the first Room Controller should be set to the first
unit number in the group (i.e. Unit 1); additional Room Controllers can be used by setting each to any other unused unit number
in the group (i.e. Units 2-8).

About Room Controllers

The HAI UPB™ 6-Button Room Controller allows for lighting control of a room where HAI UPB™ Wall Switches, Dimmers,
and Modules have been installed. From a Room Controller the room can be turned off (all loads in the group are turned off),
turned on (all loads in the group are turned on), brightened (all loads are brightened from their current level), dimmed (all loads
are dimmed from their current level), or set to one of 4 lighting scenes (A-D).

Room Controller LED Indicators

When the room is turned on, the LED indicator behind the “On” button is illuminated and all others are turned off. When the
room is turned off, the LED indicator behind the “Off” button is illuminated and all others are turned off. When the room is
brightened, the LED indicator behind the “On” is illuminated and all others are turned off. When the room is dimmed, the LED
indicator that is currently illuminated stays on. When the room is set to a lighting scene (A-D), the LED indicator behind the
respective scene letter is illuminated and all others are turned off.
