2. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The RUBIC UNA is the latest and the most advanced monitoring system designed to control independent luminaires of
emergency and escape route lighting systems. It is dedicated to smal-to-medium facilities and buildings. Each control unit can
handle up to 500 luminaires.
RUBIC MINI UNA has an integrated a web interface, intuitive graphic menu enabling quick and easy system configuration
without the need to use external software.

LUM Group means a group of luminaires. Individual luminaires from any submodule can be assigned to the so-called
Group. A LUM Group operates like a single submodule and the luminaires are logically linked within the group. This
enables flexible testing of a number of luminaires at the same time – when luminaires connected to different submodules
are located in the same area. The groups are identified by letters from A to O. All luminaires are automatically assigned to
the so-called default group.

Each I/O MODULE has 2 potential-free inputs and 2 potential-free outputs.
• POTENTIAL-FREE OUTPUTS
The two potential-free outputs are responsible for the transmission of RUBIC MINI UNA system status signal for external
use. Each output can be assigned one of the following functions:
− None
− Error
− Emergency mode
− Switched mode
− Mains supply mode
− Test
− Emergency or test mode
Functions are assigned by selection of the desired option in the Output function window opened as shown in the figure below.

Fig. 77. Available
Upon selection the window closes and the output is assigned the desired function. When the function is actuated relevant output
contacts in the I/O MODULE are closed (and the signal is sent out). The logic is inverted when the selected function is disabled.
The relay contacts are open by default (NO), infinite resistance appears and after actuation of the function the contacts
remain open. The operational logic of relay contacts (NC) can be inverted. To do so select the NC option from the drop-
down list A (marked in red in Fig. 17) and confirm your selection by pressing OK . The source of the signal can also be
selected: the control unit or a specific group of luminaires. The available options are in the drop-down list B.
The current status of the input/output is indicated by a green LED on the main screen. When the LED is grey the
corresponding function is not set or the input/output is disabled. Output functions and statuses are described in the figure below.

Upon selection the window closes and the input is assigned the desired function. When a potential-free signal appears on the I/O
MODULE input contacts the assigned function is actuated. When the signal disappears the function becomes inactive.
The input contacts are open by default but the manner of actuation can be changed. To do so select the desired option
from the drop-down list C:
- Active when closed NO
- Active when opened NC
- Current loop with a serial resistor R_SER
- Current loop with a parallel resistor R_PAR
When the function and one of the actuation options above are set confirm your selection by pressing OK . The drop-down list D
enables selection of the system element to be controlled by the input signal. The whole control unit or one of the groups can be
selected from the list.
The current status of the output is indicated by a green LED on the main screen. The statuses are the same as for the outputs
(see Fig. 18).

2.2.4. INTERNAL SUBMODULES
Submodules are the main elements of the system. There are one types of submodules: Internal SM.
The internal submodule is permanently integrated in the control unit. It cannot be removed and no additional internal
submodules can be installed. The control unit is factory-equipped with 3 submodules that can handle up to 500
luminaires. Each submodule has two channels for the connection of two lines, up to 1200m long each. Communication
circuits should be laid using a linear topology.
Each submodule can be assigned any user address (determined by the user as needed and according to the local system
structure); however the addresses should not be doubled within one system.
Fig.22. Internal submodules
Each submodule channel has three inputs:

- A – one conductor of a communication cable
- B – the other conductor of a communication cable
- ┴ - Screen/ground
In all RUBIC systems polarity should be observed in communication lines. Any deviations may disturb the correct
performance of the system.
2.2.5. SETTING UP THE IP ADDRESS OF THE RUBIC MINI UNA
A new IP address is assigned to the submodule as follows:
1. Supply power (230VAC)

2. Connect the unit to a computer using the RJ45 connector and a LAN cable
3. As the default IP address of an RUBIC MINI UNA and your computer IP are different, change the computer IP to one
from the same range, e.g. 192.168.0.2, in the network card settings.
In order to change your computer IP open the Control Panel window, go to Network Connections > Local Area

The default IP address (192.168.0.1) can be restored at any time by pressing and holding the SERVICE PIN for about 5 seconds.
This will reset the settings to the default IP address.
2.3. CONNECTING A COMMUNICATION BUS TO A SUBMODULE
The communication bus should be connected directly to the appropriate submodule (SM). The communication cable should
be properly secured and insulated so that it cannot short with other cables or external components.
The continuity of the screen (┴) must be ensured when connecting the communication cable to a selected
channel. Appropriate polarity should also be observed. If the emergency lighting modules have a blue conductor
connected to Terminal A the corresponding blue conductor must be connected to Terminal A in the control unit
as well. The other communication conductor should be connected accordingly.
Communication buses are connected to a channel of the internal submodule (Fig. 22).
Make sure the communication cable is correctly connected to the appropriate submodule.
Make sure the communication cable conductors are correctly connected to the submodule channel.
The connected screen should be insulated. Bare screening braid may cause short circuits and affect the
operation of the system. The continuity of the screen must be maintained.
Remember that conductors must be connected following the same pattern across the system, i.e. when a blue
conductor is connected to Terminal A and a white conductor to Terminal B in the first luminaire, the same
manner of connection must be applied in all subsequent luminaires and when connecting the communication
cable to a submodule.
The communication cable screen may not be used as one of communication conductors. The screen (ground)
conductor must be connected in each submodule and the RUBIC MINI UNA control unit.
Luminaires must be connected to appropriate communication buses and submodules.

The required cable is a twisted pair with a screen or ground conductor.
The structure of a RUBIC system requires suitable and correctly connected communication lines. It is essential to
ensure communication between all RUBIC system elements. In Section 4 (see Section 4 – Installation of a
communication bus. Recommendations) the principal requirements are specified.

2.4. SMARTVISIO
The Rubic MINI UNA system is equipped with signal panel and an intuitive graphic menu from web browser, enabling quick
and easy system configuration without the need to use external software. Additionally, AWEX offers a dedicated PC software
application – SmartVISIO.
It is an advanced control and monitoring application for emergency lighting systems, including the RUBIC MINI UNA. It
enables connection, grouping and visualization of the operation of each integrated system at the same place and time.
The RUBIC MINI UNA control panel provides information about the current status of the control unit, connected
submodules, inputs and outputs, errors, locks, nighttime mode, power supply, battery and charging, and gives access to
reports, test results and the configuration of the control unit. Group and submodule statuses are indicated by means of
icons.
Fig.36. RUBIC MINI UNA control panel windows in SmartVISIO.
SmartVISIO is a separate product in the price list. It is not supplied as a standard component of the RUBIC UNA system.

7 On or off Stand by (battery charged)
Table 3. RS address module control LED indications
Luminaires/modules have own addresses, unique within the system. Note the address when connecting a luminaire. The unique
address consists of a sequence of digits and letters assigned in production.
2.6. INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
Individual system components should be installed and connected as shown in Fig. 37.
Fig. 137. Example of a complete RUBIC MINI UNA system.
27
ver. 15.1_EN
Each module and luminaire has a communication connection. The cable should be connected in a manner that prevents
an accidental short circuit with the metal enclosure or other cables, including the other conductors of the
communication cable.
Each module is equipped with a screw terminal block for three communication conductors:
- A – one conductor of a communication cable
- B – the other conductor of a communication cable
- ┴ – Screen/ground
The arrangement of communication terminals in RUBIC MINI UNA system modules is shown in figures below.

3. CONTROL UNIT SERIAL NUMBER AND LICENCE
Each control unit has a unique serial number assigned in production. A label with the number is placed on a side of the
enclosure. The serial number is required to use SmartVISIO and to request information or lodge a complaint regarding the product.
The number can also be displayed by pressing the System Information icon in the Main Menu.
System information
Fig. 41. System Information screen.
4. INSTALLATION OF A COMMUNICATION BUS. RECOMMENDATIONS.
Communication between luminaires and submodules is effected via an additional cable (see connection instructions in
Section 2.8.1.
The rate is expressed in b/s (bits per second) and depends on the quality of communication line connections. The better
the connection standard the higher rates can be achieved. This directly affects the overall performance rate of the
system (message refresh rate, response times etc.).
The maximum communication rate depends on the quality of the line, which is verified by AWEX Technical Service
Department at the time of system start-up and commissioning. Information about the communication rate will be
included in the service report submitted for acceptance to an authorized representative of the client.
When laying a communication line a suitable shielded twisted pair cable for differential signalling should be used. The
cable should have the same wave impedance and cross section along the whole communication bus. If a non-shielded
cable is used one of the conductors must be connected to the ground input of the system/module.
The layout of a communication line should ensure that both submodule outputs have similar loads, i.e. a similar number
of devices (luminaires) should be connected to them.
The maximum length of a communication line with a linear topology is 1200 m. In order to obtain 1200 m conductors
with appropriate parameters should be used: YTKSYekw 1x2x0.8mm2, U-UTP 4x2x0.5 Cat. 5, F-UTP 4x2x0.5 Cat. 5, U-UTP
4x2x0.5 Cat. 6, F-UTP 4x2x0.5 Cat. 6.
UTP or FTP cable Cat. 6 or better should be used for LAN-based data transmission between the control unit and a
computer with SmartVISIO; the maximum length of such a line is 100 m. Using cables with worse parameters can result in
communication problems and will decrease the functional length of a LAN bus.
Communication cables should be laid in conduits for low-current wiring and routing of the cables along power supply lines
should be avoided. Ring topology is prohibited.
29
ver. 15.1_EN
5. SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
The system can be configured directly with the web interface. Optionally, the system can be configured remotely via a
dedicated website if SmartVISIO software is installed on the premises.
In order to configure the system using the website the RUBIC UNA control unit and the computer must be connected to
the same LAN. A direct connection is described in Section 2.3.1 for a submodule. The control unit is connected in the
same way. When the IP address of the control unit is entered in a web browser a menu reflecting the unit’s screen will be
displayed. The required default login and password are: admin and “123”.
Fig. 41a. System configuration as seen in a web browser window.
The following must be observed to configure the system correctly:

- Make sure that all required luminaires are installed, connected and powered
- Check the continuity and connections of the communication line between individual luminaires
- Consult valid location and network plans with luminaire addresses to identify and locate them (especially when the
luminaires are programmed to operate in the “switched” mode).
