About Our Safety Notices
KMC Controls assumes the responsibility for providing you a safe product and safety
guidelines during its use. Safety means protection to all individuals who install, operate,
and service the equipment as well as protection of the equipment itself. To promote
safety, we use hazard alert labeling in this manual. Follow the associated guidelines to
avoid hazards.
Danger
Danger represents the most severe hazard alert. Bodily harm or death will occur if
danger guidelines are not followed.
Warning
Warning represents hazards that could result in severe injury or death.
Caution
Caution indicates potential personal injury or equipment or property damage if
instructions are not followed.
Note
Notes provide additional information that is important.
Detail
Provides programing tips and shortcuts that may save time.

Safety issues - Read Me First
Danger
To avoid fire, shock or death, turn off power at main circuit breaker, or fuse, and test
that the power is off before wiring, opening the panel, or replacing any component!
Danger
During operation, cabinet cover is to be removed by qualified personnel ONLY! Heed
all caution markings indicating the presence of High Voltage. High voltage may be up
to 600V.
• Conduit Entry Locations: The cabinets have been designed with specific locations
supporting conduit entry for line and low voltage circuits. There are specific areas of
the cabinet which are restricted from some or all types of conduit access. Reference
the Physical Installation section of this manual for specific details.
• Line & load circuit wiring: The line wiring should come from an over-current device
and the load circuit wiring shall go to the specific load to be controlled. On some
models which have integrated branch circuit protection, the line side of the relay has
been pre-wired to a circuit breaker. With these products, only the load side of the
circuits needs to be connected.
• To be installed and/or used in accordance with appropriate electrical codes and
regulations.
• To be installed by a qualified Electrician.
• DO NOT CONNECT line voltage wires to low voltage terminals.
• Mount in a location where audible noise is acceptable.
• When using with fluorescent ballasts, both lighting fixture and ballast must be
grounded.
o %
• Use this relay cabinet only with minimum 75 C copper wire at 75 ampacity.
• Disconnect power when servicing the relay cabinet, fixture or when changing lamps.
• Indoor use only.
• Test each circuit for short circuits before connecting it to relay so damage to the relay
and it’s electronics can be avoided.
• Verify that all un-used power supply leads are insulated with wire nuts.

Overview
Overview
Introduction
Thank you for choosing KMC Controls line of lighting products for your relay needs. The
KMC Controls lighting product line offers a scalable solution of relay and relay control
which can fit any application from the simple 2 or 3-circuit needs with time clock
control, to a complete campus solution, fully integrated with your building management
system products.
This user’s guide is has four parts:
1 Detailed operational information,
2 A complete description of Simple programming mode,
3 An Advanced Programming Guide, and
4 A Systems Design Guide.
Part 1—“Front Panel Operation & Visual Status” on page 13—contains detailed
information about panel operation from the front panel interface. This section walks
you through all front panel features with complete descriptions of each.
Part 2—“Simple Mode Programming” on page 29—contains a complete description of
simple programming mode with documentation on all required programming steps and
their application.
Part 3—“Advanced Programming Guide” on page 45—is your complete manual to
configuring your lighting product. It covers all lighting features with a complete
description of all menu options. The advanced programming guide assumes a basic
familiarity with relay systems and lighting cabinet programming philosophy.
Part 4—“System Design Guide” on page 121 contains the requirements common to
more complex installations of lighting and their related products.
Note
KMC Controls recommends always checking our website at www.kmccontrols.com for
latest version of this guide and late breaking notes, requirements, application
information, and firmware updates.
This manual covers all products in the lighting product line as the steps given are
somewhat generic in nature. The particular requirements for your product, especially as
related to terminal location, may differ slightly from that shown. Please review all
markings and labels on your product to ensure that your actions are correct.

Product Specifications & Capabilities
The specifications and capabilities for each product are shown in the table below,
however, generally your product will fit into one of four categories. As the four
categories are used throughout this manual, it’s helpful to recognize which category
your product fits in so you know which sections of the manual apply to each product
type.
Master
“Master” relay panels offer the full suite of capabilities of the lighting products including
all networking functionality and modular relays. Relay panel sizes range from as few as
8 relays per panel up to 252 relays per panel.
Basic
The “Basic” relay panel is very similar to the Master except the feature set has been
reduced. It’s designed to be used in stand alone installations where only basic
capabilities are desired.
Remote
“Remote” relay panels are designed for remote installation and mounting where relay
switching from 4 to 48 load circuits is desired, but control intelligence, programming,
and interface to other systems is required at a central location. Exactly (1) Master panel
must exist on the same network as the remote relay cabinets, and the remote panels
can control relays, accept discrete inputs, and accept an emergency input.
