Providing Connectivity to Your UPB™ Lighting System
The Powerline Interface Module (PIM) sends and receives
UPB™
signals over the powerline.
It connects the UPB™ lighting system to an automation system or computer,
which can then control the lights. The PIM makes the lighting system accessible through the home
computer or from a remote location over the Internet.
The status light on the PIM will blink red when it transmits a UPB™
signal on the powerline and it will blink green when it receives a valid UPB™
signal on the powerline.
The PIM comes with a cable for connecting
the PIM to a serial port on an HAI
home control system, and is compatible with HAI's
Lumina, Lumina Pro, Omni LT, Omni II, Omni IIe, and
OmniPro II home control systems.
A UPB™ PIM to computer cable
may be purchased to connect the PIM to a computer's standard DB-9 serial port for use with
HAI UPB™ UPStart configuration software.
About HAI Lighting Control (HLC)
HLC Products work as stand-alone or with a
home control system.
An HAI home control system has the ability to change your light settings by the
time of day, a set schedule, by the triggering of events (including motion), via a telephone call,
Touchscreen, Smartphone, or by a computer connected to the Internet.

All HLC products are UL Listed and use
Generation II Universal Powerline Bus (UPB™)
– a digital communications standard for lighting and home control that
ensures superior reliability.
UPB™ has been extensively tested
and researched in residential environments and found to be 99.9 percent reliable.
UPB™ works over existing wires in a home and does not require new wiring.

Phase Coupler
HLC is for single phase 120/240 VAC, 60 Hz systems. The HLC Phase Coupler mounts by the circuit breaker box and is used to connect the signal from L1 to L2 within the circuit breaker box.
Although HLC is extremely robust and less susceptible to powerline conditions, HAI recommends the use of a Phase Coupler in every HLC installation.
The LED on the Phase Coupler shows that it is working.
