JL-246CG Zigbee/LTE Smart IoT Dimming Photocontrol and Gateway for JL-245CZ

Product Details:

JL-246CG key specifications: rated input 120–277VAC; operating range 105–305VAC; frequency 50/60Hz; dimming output 0–10VDC; LTE Cat.1 uplink and Zigbee downlink. The existing specification chart lists Fail-On operation, an ambient range of −40°C to +70°C and IP54/IP65/IP67 configurations. Confirm the ordered sealing configuration, LED driver compatibility and destination-market cellular bands. Certification logos in the chart require the applicable model-specific listing, declaration and supporting reports; they do not establish approval of every supplied configuration.

JL-246CG Zigbee/LTE Smart IoT Dimming Photocontrol and Gateway for JL-245CZ

JL-246CG smart IoT dimming photocontrol with LTE gateway and collector function

Values as printed in the JL-246CG EN 2306V6 datasheet. FCC appears in the datasheet as a mark and the standard list is the datasheet criterion row; no certificate number is printed there, so this table reports the declaration rather than a certificate. The LTE bands, SIM arrangement and IP configuration must be confirmed against the destination market and the ordered part number before a project is quoted.

Installation

The interface of the product itself has been mistake-proof designed, just tighten the photocontrol directly to the rotatable/fixed base, as shown in Figure clockwise after insertion.

  • Follow the model-specific installation instructions. A qualified installer must confirm whether live replacement is permitted for the exact assembly; do not infer permission from the twist-lock interface alone.
  • Users can input the photocontrol ID information to the smart lighting management system through WEB interface or by scanning QR code with its specific WeChat “UM9900 Smart Light Pole” public account.

Initial Testing

  • It is normal for the photocontrol to take several seconds to turn off when first installed.
  • To test “turn on” during daytime, cover its eye with black tape or other opaque material.
  • Do not cover with finger because light traveling through fingers may be great enough to keep the switch open.
  • Test will take approximately 2 minutes.

 

JL-246CG Selection FAQs

What role does JL-246CG perform?

The product description identifies Zigbee and LTE communication modules, with JL-246CG acting as the gateway/collector for the Zigbee group used with JL-245CZ. Confirm the supported firmware, group configuration and management platform before deployment.

What cellular requirements must be checked?

Confirm the supported LTE bands, SIM or service plan, coverage, antenna arrangement and platform connectivity for the destination market. Do not assume that one cellular configuration works in every country or network.

Is the mounting interface sufficient to establish compatibility?

No. Confirm the ANSI C136.41 receptacle/contact arrangement, supply voltage, 0-10V driver interface, load and inrush rating, commissioning method and complete outdoor sealing configuration for the selected system.
