This unit must only be installed by personnel that have been trained by Telensa or their representatives to carry out this work. 1.2 Power Supply In the case of field installation, the supply voltage present on the luminaire NEMA socket is hazardous and all necessary precautions must be taken to ensure the safety of the installer. Isolate the supply to the NEMA socket before removing an old photocontrol, and installing the Telecell.](https://usermanual.wiki/Telensa/2TXD.User-Manual-and-Instructions/User-Guide-3647069-Page-5.png)
![User Manual and Instructions for the US Telecell 2 Product function TL-004391-TN Issue 3 © Telensa Ltd 2017 Page 6 2 Product function The Telecell is a radio controlled device and will only function as part of a Telensa Central Management System (CMS). Telecells are assigned to a specific CMS and cannot be transferred to another CMS without being re-assigned by Telensa. The Telecell operating program is set by the CMS and dusk/dawn lamp switching is remote controlled over the radio link by the associated CMS base stations. Typical maximum radio link distances are 2-3km in a urban areas and 3-10km in rural areas, depending on the terrain.](https://usermanual.wiki/Telensa/2TXD.User-Manual-and-Instructions/User-Guide-3647069-Page-6.png)
![User Manual and Instructions for the US Telecell 2 Telecell Variants TL-004391-TN Issue 3 © Telensa Ltd 2017 Page 7 3 Telecell Variants There are two key variants of the Telecell 2 model; dimming control and standard / non-dimming control. Dimming control products are identified by the text “0-10V & DALI” on the product label. Telecell products are built and supplied to either the EU or US standards: US product part numbers start with T2A… The products are supplied with NEMA pin connections for insertion into the photocell socket on top of a luminaire. The Telecell variants included in this document are: Model Number Also Known As T2A1N NEMA Telecell T2A1P Post top Telecell T2A1U 2 part Telecell](https://usermanual.wiki/Telensa/2TXD.User-Manual-and-Instructions/User-Guide-3647069-Page-7.png)

![User Manual and Instructions for the US Telecell 2 Installation Instructions TL-004391-TN Issue 3 © Telensa Ltd 2017 Page 9 5 Installation Instructions Instructions for the installation of each of the different variants of Telecell are given below. Figure 2 shows a wiring diagram for a standard lamp with a non-dimmable ballast. Figure 3 shows dimming control using a dimmable ballast. Once installed and power is applied then the Telecell will automatically switch on to apply power to the lamp as an installation test. After one minute the lamp will be switched off and the Telecell will search and lock to the radio control signals from the system base stations. 5.1 Dimming Control NEMA Telecell T2A1N A dimming control Telecell will ONLY control a lamp that incorporates a 5 or 7 pin NEMA socket compliant with ANSI C136.41 2013. Insert unit into NEMA socket on street light ensuring the largest tab on the unit places into the largest tab recess on the NEMA socket on the street light. Turn by hand clockwise typically 30 degrees to lock in place. 5.2 Standard (Non-dimming) NEMA Telecell T2A1N Insert unit into NEMA socket on street light ensuring the largest tab on the unit places into the largest tab recess on the NEMA socket on the street light. Turn by hand clockwise typically 30 degrees to lock in place. 5.3 Post Top Telecell Type T2A1P This product is for installation within the photocontrol cavity of post top mounted heritage style lanterns. A separate “twig” style antenna must be installed with this Telecell, which has no internal antenna. First, do a trial installation of the Telecell in the lantern socket to check the location of the Telecell antenna socket. The antenna cable will have to reach to this socket. Mark a suitable location for the antenna on the outside of the luminaire and unplug and remove the Telecell. Drill a half inch (12.5mm) hole in the luminaire case to mount the antenna and fit it in place. When fitting the antenna use all the waterproofing gaskets as provided and ensure that the metal grounding teeth on the antenna base make contact inside the luminaire case. Fit the Telecell to its socket then attach the antenna lead connector to the Telecell antenna connector. Tighten by hand gently, there is no need for a high torque. If necessary, use a 5/16in wrench. The maximum torque is 3in-lbf. Use only antennas supplied by Telensa for this application, see Table 1. 5.4 Two-part Telecell Type T2A1U This product is intended for installation within a luminaire that has no NEMA socket, or insufficient space for fitting a NEMA socket. An external antenna must be fitted for the Telecell to function.](https://usermanual.wiki/Telensa/2TXD.User-Manual-and-Instructions/User-Guide-3647069-Page-9.png)
![User Manual and Instructions for the US Telecell 2 Installation Instructions TL-004391-TN Issue 3 © Telensa Ltd 2017 Page 10 When safe, open the luminaire and install the two-part Telecell as follows: First drill a half-inch (12.5mm) hole in a suitable flat area of the luminaire wall to fit the external antenna, making sure there is clearance inside the luminaire for the antenna cabling. When fitting the antenna use all the waterproofing gaskets as provided and ensure that the metal grounding teeth on the antenna base make contact inside the luminaire case. Find a suitable location for the T2A1U Telecell inside the luminaire and fix it in place. Wire the Telecell following the wiring diagram in Figure 2 or Figure 3 of this document. Next attach the Telecell antenna lead to the antenna connector. Tighten by hand gently, there is no need for a high torque. If necessary, use a 5/16in wrench. The maximum connector torque is 3in-lbf. Use only antennas supplied by Telensa for this application, see Table 1. 5.5 External Antennas Use only those antennas supplied by Telensa for use with the T2A1P or T2A1U, see Table 1 for Telensa antenna part numbers.

This OSID must be recorded with the ID or geographic co-ordinates of the lamp under control and recorded in the CMS database. There are a number of different methods to achieve this and installers will be trained with the appropriate method for their system.
