Adjustable Skylight Control
Overview
The Room Controller contains onboard connection for operation of adjustable skylight motors (RC3DE
model only). The Solatube will automatically open and close based on signals received from the Room
Controller. This instruction discusses connection to Solatube International 330/750 DS Daylight Dimmer
models.
The Solatube Daylight Dimmer is automatically controlled based on the wallstations and occupancy sensors
used in the room. Typically, the Solatube will open when entry controls are used to turn on the entry based
lighting, such as the Entry, Row 1, Uplights or Half/Full lights button on a wallstation, or the occupancy
sensor when sensing occupancy. Off controls such as occupancy sensors or “All Off” buttons on the
wallstation will cause the Solatubes to close. Special modes such as A/V mode or presentation scenes will
also trigger the Solatube to close to block contribution of daylight during these presets.
