6 Definition—reference control settings

(1) Subject to subsection (7), for a model of LED lamp with control features that allow the end user to adjust lamp characteristics that are capable of impacting on the energy performance of that model, a reference in this instrument to the reference control settings is a reference to the settings specified in this section.

Note 1: The control might be manual or automatic, direct or remote.

Note 2: LED lamps without control features that allow end users to adjust lamp characteristics that are capable of impacting on energy performance do not have reference control settings.

(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), without limiting that subsection, a model of LED lamp with control features that allow the end user to adjust any of, or any combination of, the following characteristics of the model is taken to be a model of LED lamp with control features that are capable of impacting on the energy performance of that model:

(a) the electrical power consumption;

(b) the luminous intensity of the emitted light;

(c) the chromaticity of the emitted light;

(d) the correlated colour temperature;

(e) the spectrum of the emitted light;

(f) the beam angle of the emitted light.

(3) Subject to subsections (4), (5) and (6), the reference control settings are the settings:

(a) defined by the manufacturer as the factory default settings; and

(b) encountered by the user upon first installing the lamp.

(4) If the installation procedure for the lamp provides for an automatic software update before the first use, or the user has the option to perform such an update, the reference control settings are the settings following that update.

Note: Software includes firmware.

(5) Despite subsections (3) and (4), if there are settings for the lamp characteristics mentioned in subsection (1) for a model of an LED lamp that:

(a) are specified, and described as reference control settings, on the product packaging; or

(b) if paragraph (a) does not apply—are so specified and described in technical documentation that is accessible by following instructions on the product packaging; or

(c) if neither paragraph (a) or (b) applies—are so specified and described in technical documentation that is supplied with the lamp;

the reference control settings are the settings so specified.

Note: This subsection might apply because, for example, the manufacturer has set the factory default values at a lower power than the intended reference control settings for safety reasons.

(6) Despite subsections (3) and (4), if:
