2 • DESCRIPTION
• The ESYLUX POWERLINE-System EPL is intended for private/semidetached homes,
small apartment buildings and small businesses.
• It comprises sensors and actuators which control electric devices via the building's
own 230 V supply. The technology is based on the high-quality LON standard from
ECHELON
• The sensors are EPL-Transmitters and can be controlled by various switching elements,
such as buttons/switches, thermostats, light barriers, motion and presence detectors,
smoke detector switching relays, wind and rain sensors and macerator pumps.
The sensors transmit the signal via the building's own 230 V supply to the actuators.
• The actuators are EPL-Receivers. These switch, control or dim electric devices such as
wall, ceiling and outdoor lights, roller shutters, blinds, water fountains, circulation
pumps, small ventilators/fans and Christmas lights. As they only consume < 0.2 W,
the EPL-Receivers are also suitable for switching off standby devices (e.g. TV,
satellite receiver).
• EPL-Transceivers are a combination of sensor and actuator and are able to send as
well as receive signals.
• All sensors and actuators are easily connected to L and N and assigned to each other.
This allows the sensors and actuators to be switched to different phases/phase
conductors. Assignment/programming takes place by group and is easily carried out
using a screwdriver (see Activation/Programming). A PC is not required.
The delimitation to other apartments in the building is established automatically
upon activation.
• Thanks to the Gateway EPL-PC you can conveniently manage the ESYLUX POWERLINE-
System EPL using a PC. This allows you to:
- Activate a complete POWERLINE EPL system
- Overwrite rotary and slide switches that have been set using a screwdriver
- Save building data as a file
- Input a graphic (jpg/gif) to enable visualisation of all EPL modules e.g. on the
ground plan of the property
12
and therefore guarantees the highest operational reliability.
