Installation
Location
• Source Controllers must be located in a dry, well ventilated location
where the ambient temperature is within the range of +2oC to 40oC
(humidity of +5 to +95% non-condensing).
• Source Controllers are designed to be mounted vertically on a stable,
horizontal surface. It is important to orientate the unit correctly to allow
for effective airflow for ventilation.
It is recommended to leave 100mm distance between the Source
Controller and walls or other equipment either side of the unit.
• A Source Controller may be connected directly to trunking of depth
50mm or less (see right, top).
• Where trunking depth is greater than 50mm, a gap of 50mm is
recommended to allow for adequate airflow for ventilation (see right,
bottom).
• Allow adequate space for future maintenance of the unit. Do not install
in a location that will later be inaccessible.

Mounting
Remove the unit cover to gain access to the fixing holes.
(inside door)
(inside door)
4 Channel version shown
Four screws hold on the cover of the Source Controller; two are visible from the front and two are visible
only when the MCB cover door is opened. There is no need to remove the MCB door.
Load Connections
It is essential that the correct Source Controller is used according to load type. Consult the table below if
you are unsure about load type before connecting the load to the Source Controller.
IMPORTANT: Failure to use the correct Source Controller or load type has the potential to damage the
Source Controller, load, or both and is not covered by product warranty.

Network Connections
Network Cable Topology
The iLight Network is of CAN bus (Controller Area Network) standard. A maximum of 100 devices can
be added to the network on a single run. NOTE: Device quantity can be increased with a BN-2-D Network
Bridge/Repeater unit.
The network must be wired in a ‘daisy-chain’ radial configuration, resulting in two end-of-line positions for
the CAN pair. The order that devices are situated on the network is not specific, but power must be evenly
distributed across the network for powering Control Plates, Interfaces and other input devices. Additonal
power supplies may be required.
Simple Network Example
EoL Termination
EoL Termination
Source Controllers
Control Plates
Three-phase Operation
SCA1210 maintains output terminal order
according to channel number, rather than
grouping the outputs together by phase.
For SCA1210, the output LEDs to the right-
hand side of the unit are grouped by phase.
This is because each of the three Power
PCBs are controlling each of the phases.
Therefore, if the second LED down on the
right side of the unit is on, and the circuit
needs to be isolated, this corresponds to
the second output of phase L1, which is
output channel 4 and therefore breaker
number 4 on the Source Controller.

Network Termination
Connection to the network
IMPORTANT NOTE: Connecting a mains potential cable to the iLight Network terminals is likely to damage
the unit and others connected, and invalidate warranty.
Termination On = Jumper across lower pins
Termination Off = Jumper across upper pins
IMPORTANT: Remove jumper for all devices other
than those at the end-of-line.
Applies 120ohm resistor to the iLight network.
Required at each end of the network cable run only.

Connections for the iLight network are located on the CPU card at the bottom of the unit with the cover
removed.
Maximum segment distance: 500m (1640 ft). Devices per segment: 100 (without bridge or repeater)
Consult iLight for information on alternative cable types.
There are two 5-way green connectors for the network. Either of these may be
used (as an in and an out) or a single used with the network cable doubled-up
to it. Please observe the standard wiring colour codes as follows:

Service Switches and LEDs
These switches and LEDs are located at the base of the unit.
The two service switches on the source controllers are used for the following:
• Entering Diagnostic Mode.
• Putting the Source Controller in
override mode.
• Sending a message to identify the
device on the network.
• Sending a message to identify the
device on the network.
The LEDs indicate the following:
• Normal operation:
Steady green LED blinking 1 x per
second.
Red LED off.
• Message transmission and receipt
indicated by red LED flashing for
duration of data transmission.
• Override status: Both LEDs flashing
together or just red flashing and
green off.
ICANnet error status will occur when a
Source Controller is not connected to an
iCAN network for any reason. Once either
connected to a network of one or more other
devices which are powered the error status
will be removed. It is still possible to enter
Diagnostic mode if a Source Controller is in
iCANnet error status.

iLight SCA0410 & SCA1210 Installation Guide Document 9850-000927-00 P9
Override Mode
Placing the unit into override mode
allows for testing of the Source Controller
outputs regardless of how the unit is
currently programmed. This is useful
for ttesting power to circuits prior to the
system being commissioned or for fault
nding where it can be used to test if there
is an issue with the Source Controller
output(s) should this be suspected.
When the Source Controller is placed into
override mode it will no longer respond to
commands sent over the iLight network.
Override mode can also be used to
restore power to outputs if control is lost
or temporarily removed to allow lighting
to remain on until control is restored.
NOTE: Override mode only affects the
outputs on the Source Controller on
which it is activated.
To exit diagnostic / override status follow
the steps shown. If power is cycled to the
Source Controller then this will also take
the unit out of override mode and it will
start up in the default running status.

RS485 Connection
IMPORTANT NOTE: Connecting a mains potential cable to the RS485/DMX terminals is likely to damage
the unit and others connected, and invalidate warranty.
Function
Alarm (N/A)
0V
RS485+
RS485-
Source Controllers have an RS485 port located on the CPU PCB which allows for direct serial integration
with the iLight network. If multiple Source Controllers are linked on the iLight network then only a single
RS485 connection is required in order to potentially control all devices.
Use CAT5 FTP or equivalent data cable
for the RS485 connection.
The pin marked Alarm should be
ignored. This feature is covered in the
Alarm Input section.
This port can also be adapted to be
used as a DMX input port for DMX
control of the Source Controller’s
outputs. It cannot be used for this
purpose if it is already being used as
an RS485 port. This feature is covered
in the ‘Output Control by DMX Input’
section.
RS485 Data Format
• Baud Rate: 9600
• 8 Data Bits
• 1 Stop Bit
• No Parity

Please refer to the RS485 Serial Integration article on the iLight
Technical Support site for a full glossary of available RS485
messages.
