2 Safety
The sub-distributor is safe to operate and complies with valid and recognised rules of engineering at the time of its development and
production. There is, however, the risk of danger when the system is used by non-professional staff or when it is used in a non-professional or
non-intended way.
The system and the connected parts must only be operated in perfect condition. The following have to be observed:
safety instructions and hazard notes in the instruction manual
specified work and safety instructions of the operator
Errors which influence the function or safety of the system have to be reported to the responsible person and cleared immediately.
Each person working on or with the system has to read and understand the instruction manual completely prior to any work on the system or
battery, even when this person has already worked with this system or a similar one or has been trained by the manufacturer.
Any changes or extensions to the system, which are not authorised by the manufacturer, are prohibited in order to avoid hazards and to
guarantee an optimal performance of the system. Extensions, modifications or maintainance works, which are not described in the instruction
manual, have to be carried out by trained service personnel only!
As described in point 1.2, this instruction manual has to be kept near the system and easily accessible for all staff working on and with the
system.
The system must only be operated in technically perfect and operationally reliable condition. Additionally, prior to its commissioning, the
system has to be checked for intactness.
Only skilled technicians or authorised qualified personnel are permitted to work on or with the system after being briefed about possible
hazards.
Staff are considered qualified if they are able to judge the work to be done and recognise possible hazards based on their training, expertise
and experiences as well as their knowledge of the respective regulations.
If the staff lacks the necessary knowledge, they need to get a professional instruction. You also have to make sure that the tasks are clearly
defined and understood and the works are carried out under supervision of skilled technicians.

3 Preface
Thank you very much for buying a “multiControl plus Sub-distributor – single wire power supply (MCUV-E)”.
The MCUV-E represents the latest series of sub-distributors for multiControl plus systems.
It offers the possibility to outsource individual circuit modules (DIN rail module TSM32) of the multiControl plus or midiControl plus in a
separate housing. For large objects, this offers the possibility of saving cable ways and thus installation material.
Power is supplied in single-wire technology by AC/DC switching in the multiControl plus/midiControl plus main system. This means that the
MCUV-E is supplied with AC voltage as long as the main system is operating in mains mode. During a mains failure or test operation, the
MCUV-E is supplied with DC voltage. Thus, in contrast to conventional systems with two supply lines (AC line and DC line), only one supply
line (AC / DC line) is required, which can be achieved further savings of installation material.
Each subdistributor has 4 separate CCIFs, allowing 4 closed loop loops to be individually monitored on each MCUV-E.
As an option, an additional power supply from a local general light distributor is available. In this way, a tenant-related energy supply of the
luminaires connected to the MCUV-E can be realized. When the system is ready for operation, the luminaires are supplied by the supply of
the local general light distributor. Only when the voltage from the general light distributor or priority emergency or test operation by the main
system fails, the luminaires are supplied from the main system via single wire power supply.
This system complies with the standards DIN EN 50171, DIN EN 50172, DIN VDE 0100-560, DIN VDE 0108-100 as well as DIN VDE 0100-
718 (versions relevant on delivery) and guarantees the correct functioning of your emergency lighting system by means of a state-of-the-art
micro-processor-controlled function control system. This documentation has been created for you to quickly commission and operate the
system in an uncomplicated way.
The exact circuit diagram along with other information on your system can be found in the attachment of this document.
Note: For maintenance works and modifications the system has to be de-energised by a specialist. The necessary steps are described in
chapter 9.
The system and the battery system can be operated at an altitude of up to 2000m above standard elevation zero, without any power reduction,
and must be placed in an appropriate room satisfying the following environmental condition:
Also, please make sure that the room fulfills the conditions corresponding to the protection class of the system (see DIN EN 60529 and
60598).
The LAR of the respective federal states is used for distributors of the safety lighting! The EltBauVO only applies in connection with battery
systems and associated power supply systems and the construction of electrical rooms.
Note: The system must be located in the building such that the allowed cable lengths allowed for emergency lighting circuits will not be
exceeded.

Setup & Commissioning Page 9
Please strongly obey the safety instructions when installing and using your multiControl plus Sub-distributor system.
Observe instructions and keep them located near the battery system for future reference!
Work on the battery system should only be carried out by qualified personnel!
No guaranty in cases of non-observance of instruction manual, repair using non-original parts or
unauthorised intervention!
Do not smoke! Do not use any naked flame or other sources of ignition. There is the danger of explosion
and fire hazards!
While working on batteries wear protective eye-glasses and clothing!
Observe the accident prevention rules as well as DIN VDE 0510, VDE 0105 part 1 (version relevant on
delivery)!
Any acid splashes on the skin or in the eyes must be flushed with plenty of water immediately. Then
seek medical assistance. Spillages on clothing should be rinsed out with water!
Explosion and fire hazard, avoid short circuits! Caution! Metal parts of the battery are always
e n e r g i s e d ; therefore do not place items or tools on the battery!
Electrolyte is strongly corrosive and acidic. In normal working conditions the contact with electrolyte i s
nearly impossible; electrolyte may leak from the vent valves in case of overcharging the battery or in
case of mechanical damage to the container. In case of any contact with electrolyte please flush with
water abundantly and seek medical assistance.
Batteries / cells are heavy! Ensure adequate mounting security and always use adequate handling
equipment for transportation.

The four integrated CCIFs are used to monitor separate quiescent current
loops.
CCIF: The CCIF registers the interruption of the quiescent current loop and a
clumping (short circuit of the line) and switches on the non-maintaind circuits
/ luminaires of the system. The quiescent current loop has 5V DC voltage.
Refractory cable material is not necessary if the terminator is mounted on the
last line monitor.
Applying voltage to these terminals is not permitted and will destroy the
system!

To commission the sub-distributor, the housing must be opened. Figure 1 shows schematically the view of the open sub-distributor. Now
proceed as follows:
1. De-energize the main system. Under help of the documentation, de-energize the main system.
2. Prepare supply voltage. Insert the fuses “outgoing sub-distributor - ABUV” in the main system.
3. Set up the power supply. Energize the supply line between the main system and the multiControl sub-distributor by putting the main
system back into operation. Check the correct assignment of the power supply to F1 / F2 or X01 by the following measurements. In case
of a connection error, cancel commissioning:
4. Switch on the sub-distributor. Switch in the mains fuse F1/F2, the sub-distributor will start automatically.
Note: Please note that when the main system is ready for operation, the circuits in the MCUV-E switch on after the start. Perform installation
work only on a de-energized system and pay attention to the 5 safety rules!
Note: When restarting the device, this must remain switched off for at least 20 seconds! Non-observance may cause communication
problems during the start-up phase of the system.

13 Module descriptions
Several modules which are integrated in your system or optionally available are briefly described in the following paragraphs. These data can
also be downloaded from your dealer’s homepage.
Characteristics at a glance:
The DIN rail circuit module – TSM32 is a circuit module for emergency lighting systems of type multiControl plus. The power supply to
the circuits of the TSM32 via an AC/DC change-over which is installed in the main system. Each circuit module supplies and monitored
two circuits, each with a maximum of 20 safety and/or safety escape sign luminaire. The circuit module is able to realize a single light
request as well as a self-calibrating current monitoring. The mixed operation of safety and safety escape sign luminaires in a circuit in
the types of non-maintained-, maintained- and switched modified non-maintained lighting without the installation of a separate data
line is possible.
Each circuit of the TSM32 can be switched with switching commands via a switch scanning module (SAM24). The following types of
switching are provided here: non-maintained lighting (DS), maintained lighting (BS) and switched modified non-maintained lighting
(gMB).
The circuit modules are connected to the central battery system via the RS485 BUS. All programming is carried out seperately on the
central computer for each circuit, for further information please refer to the documentation of you emergency lighting system.
On the front of the circuit module each circuit is protected with a 5AT fuse.
Visualization of states via LED. The visualization of the states for each circuit is separately done via a respective LED (A/B):
Characteristics at a glance:
The DIN Rail controller for sub-distribution - TSC-UV is a control and switching module for sub-distribution of emergency lighting
systems of type multiControl plus.
The TSC-UV includes 4 separate quiescent current loops (CCIF), designated KK1, KK2, KK3 and KK4. The assignment of the quiescent
current loops to the circuits of the associated MCUV-E takes place via the internal web interface. The triggering of the modified standby
mode (MB) takes place in case of an interruption or lumping of the line of the quiescent current loop. The operating status is visualized
via the respective LED "KK - ok" as follows:
Furthermore, the TSC-UV has separate monitoring for rental electricity supply (AC local) with integrated mains monitor. An additional
AC feed can be made by a local general light distributor and thus a tenant-related electricity billing can be realized. Only in emergency
operation of the main system (modified readiness by triggering the quiescent current loop, battery or test mode) or failure of the local
general light distributor is switched to the single wire power supply of the main system. Switching takes place via a contactor
changeover.
The mains monitoring function is visualized via the "Netz / mains lokal ok" LED as follows:
LED „Netz / mains lokal ok“ on local mains ok, Power supply is taken from the local general light distributor
LED „Netz / mains lokal ok“ off Local mains outside the limits, Power supply is taken from the main system
To simplify installation and maintenance work, the TSC-UV has its own mode selector switch (BAS) as a button. This BAS can switch off
and on the TSC-UV circuits belonging to the TSM32 in case of maintained light, modified standby and battery operation.
The TSC-UV is connected to the main system via the RS485 BUS. In case of a communication fault, all circuits in this sub-distribution
are switched to modified standby mode. Because there is no communication to switch off the circuits, this can be realized via the "NOT-
AUS / BAS" button as follows:
Circuits off (charging mode) Press „NOT-AUS/BAS“ for 3 seconds until the LED „TSC-UV“ is flashing fast → release the button
Circuits on (ready to operate) Press „NOT-AUS/BAS“ for 3 seconds until the LED „TSC-UV“ is flashing fast → release the button
After conversion, the operating mode can be recognized via the LED „TSC-UV“
internal BAS is ready to operate Lights up permanently (Factory setting)
internal BAS is charging mode flashing (0,1s on/1s off)
Note: The function is used for the load-free release of the TSM. Despite switched off circuits, a functional or capacity test, including
preheating, is possible at any time. Only with removed output fuses on the DIN rail circuit module – TSM32 are the final circuits de-
energized! Each restart of the system or disconnection and connection of the power supply to the sub-distributor will reset the
charging mode and switches the circuits on again.
After completing the work, the correct operating mode must be restored.

Characteristics at a glance:
The interface module SAM24 allows the direct interfacing of an emergency lighting system with a general lighting installation. It is to
monitor the operation status of the general lighting system in order to achieve a joint switching of emergency lights and the general
lighting when mains-operated. Normally-closed contacts as well as normally-open contacts of the general lighting can be monitored;
it is also possible to directly connect phases of the general lighting in order to activate the emergency lighting in case of a general
lighting failure. Up to 16 SAM24 interface modules can be connected to the emergency lighting system via the BUS line, which
provides a sufficient number of inputs.
Normally-open contacts can also be used for monitoring fuses of the general lighting. The setup or programming is carried out at the
emergency lighting device (ds/mb setting). Switching the general lighting will produce a status change being recognized at the
control inputs E01 - E08 which is transferred via BUS line to the power supply system. The emergency lighting system can be
programmed to switch on or off certain emergency lighting circuits upon status change of each input.
The lighting interface module is connected to the BUS interface and the respective voltage supply of the power supply system (e.g.
MULTI-CONTROL). The voltage inputs should always be operated in pairs (E01-E02 / E03-E04 / E05-E06 and E07-E08) with the
same mains voltage or low voltage potential.
Interface function:
The SAM24 provides 8 galvanically isolated multi-voltage inputs accomodating voltages in the range between 18V to 255V (DC) or
185V to 255V (AC). The state (HI/LO) of each input is indicated by a yellow LED at the front of the SAM24 (LED on = voltage
recognized). If ouy want to use input channel no. 8 for voltage monitoring, set DIP switch no. 4 to OFF. Now up to 8 separated voltage
inputs can be connected and monitored.
