ASHRAE 90.1-2010
by
“
The Dialog system from Douglas Lighting Controls has
been an easy transition from our old lighting system at
Reed Arena. Our staff were able to quickly understand
and learn how to operate the system; while for me,
what’s really valuable is the system’s mobile control
platform. It allows me to move around the buildings
to attend to all my daily activities while allowing me
to make lighting changes immediately if needed.”

Introduction
With a large portion of a facilities’ energy costs associated with lighting, effective lighting control solutions
are needed to support staff and customers in a variety of spaces. How can a facility meet the need for
effective lighting while also meeting the demands of energy conservation requirements found in initiatives
such as ASHRAE 90.1-2010, California Title 24, New York Local Law 48 or LEED design practices?
Since 1962 Douglas Lighting Controls has been involved in the lighting control industry and instrumental
in leading the development of the first lighting control solutions. Through its well proven latching relays and
simple to install 2-wire networking, Douglas has a reputation for providing high quality, reliable, lighting
control solutions.
Built on Douglas’ foundation of Service, Reliability, and Integrity, Dialog is an advanced digital lighting
control system connecting and controlling lights through relays, occupancy sensors, photo sensors, ballasts,
and switch stations. Dialog is a centralized controller that manages facility lighting requirements globally,
or by area, or by room. The flexibility and scalability of Dialog easily allows it to be used in a variety
of applications from small commercial buildings to large facilities such as office towers, schools, airports
and stadiums.

Dialog Overview
Dialog is based on our 2-wire, non-polarized data network using standard and readily available #18AWG
wire. Dialog eliminates your concerns about how to connect the system together or the cost of system specific
wiring, CAT5 cables, terminator plugs, connectors, or the loss of communication through wireless devices.
All devices communicate with the centralized Dialog Lighting Control Unit (LCU) through the 2-wire network.
Simplicity in the installation saves time and gets your system up and running sooner. Once the system wiring
is in place, the start-up is a matter of landing the final connections and powering up the system.
It’s simple, it’s easy and it works!

Centralized Control
and Configuration Station
Dialog Grows With Your Needs
Dialog truly is a scalable solution. By connecting devices (switches and sensors) from each room to the
Dialog Lighting Control Unit (LCU) via the 2-wire network, control over the entire floor is now centralized
while still providing the capability for individual room control. Each LCU is capable of supporting 256 relay
outputs and 256 independent dimmer channels.
For large spaces or multiple floors that exceed an single LCU output limit, additional LCUs are added
to the network. All LCUs can be managed from a centralized control station (optional).

Dialog Room Controller
A Plug ‘N ControlTM Lighting Solution for Classrooms and Offices.
The Dialog Room Controller is offered in factory configured kits that make installation and commissioning easy.
Devices are connected via the Dialog 2-wire network. Dialog Room Controller systems are BACnet and
Demand Response ready.

The Dialog Room Controller’s thoughtful design eliminates wiring complications found in current lighting control
systems by mounting directly to junction boxes with the incorporated ½ inch chase nipples. Color coded labels that
correspond with wires and wiring information inside the wiring compartment clearly identify proper connections.
Out-of-the-box ease of installation and operation through Plug ‘N Control™ functionality means once the system
is connected, your room is under control. With an easy installation process and the removal of commissioning
challenges, the Dialog Room Controller is up and running quickly, and operating effectively to meet the
requirements of ASHRAE 90.1-2010 and California Title 24 installations.
Designated emergency lights are controlled by the UL924 / CSA C22.2 No. 141 Relay Expansion Pack.
Under normal conditions these lights operate to the lighting requirements. In the event of power failure,
emergency light mode is activated. Emergency lights operate at full brightness; wall switch and dimming
functionality is disabled (an emergency/backup power source is required).

The Dialog Room Controller system can also be used in a centralized, fully networked Dialog system. Select
the appropriate Kits, connect to the Dialog network controller (WLC-3150) and facility wide control capability
is enabled. Advantages include global control and scheduling, faster installations, less long wire/conduit runs,
and room-by-room commissioning before centralized network connections are completed.
The Right Retrofit Solution
For existing buildings or stadiums that need a lighting system upgrade, considering a retrofit brings on a unique
set of challenges because of the current design, the time needed for the installation, and the system and
installation costs of the upgrade. Fortunately, a Dialog system can solve these challenges.
Douglas Lighting Controls has decades of experience with system design and over the years has developed
a library of relay panel inserts for North American panel manufacturers. If your system is unique, we can even
build a panel or back-pan to your requirements at our on-site metal working department to solve sizing issues.
With the relay panels assembled and the Dialog system configured and tested at our factory, we can then
ship the system to the site for installation. To help with the challenges of running wire in existing building, our
topology free communication network provides flexibility on how the wires can be run.

An Easy Decision
for an Advanced System
Dialog flexibility means that the core of the system (relay panels, central controller, sensors) is used in a wide
range of applications - fundamentally Dialog really is that simple. There are additional devices for specific
applications; however, leave that to our team.
You tell us what is needed and we will build a system for your project by following a step-by-step process
and deliver you a system that is ready to install, quick to commission, easy to use, and reliable.
