LIGHTING CONTROL SYSTEMS

(Dimming)

Streetlighting controls:

  • Virtual midnight
  • Lineswitch
  • Power-line communication
  • Wireless Remote Control
  • Motion sensors
  • Photocell

Tunnel lighting controls:

  • Power-line communication
  • Wireless Remote Control

Controls for industrial lighting:

  • 1-10V / DALI
  • Motion sensors
  • Illuminance sensors
  • Zigbee

Below we present the control systems available with our products, systems ranging from the management of a few lighting points to entire industries and cities.

Virtual midnight

It’s an automatic system, completely integrated in the light fixtures that does not require any additional wiring or external hardware.

Designed to reduce the luminous flux according to a preset program with a maximum of 5 phases (time bands) per operation cycle, each one customizable with a different level of reduction as shown in the image on the side.

For the first 3 days after installation, the lamps will operate at full power, acquiring ignition times, and then begin to reduce power from the fourth day. Operation is based on the calculation of a virtual midnight (mid-ignition point) which is used as a midnight reference for the programmed reduction scenario.

The virtual midnight calculation is automatic and continuously updated throughout the year.

The system is particularly used for street and parking lot lighting.

1-10V / DALI

They are lighting cable control systems, both require the installation of 2 additional poles for operation in addition to the power supply.

1-10V is an analog control, based on the distribution of a voltage signal between 1 and 10V, where 1V corresponds to 10% luminous intensity and 10V corresponds to 100% luminous intensity.

One or more lamps can be controlled by an illuminance or presence sensor using this communication line.

When wiring, it is mandatory to respect the polarity of the 2 dimming cables, especially if control units are present.

DALI is a digital control, where each lamp is assigned a unique address, which allows the control of the individual light points and communication with the lamps to verify their correct operation.

DALI allows the creation of control groups and the interface with presence and luminance sensors for the control of entire production and local lines.

Wireless Remote Control

Our street lamps are available with a wireless remote control system to manage dimming functions, consumption monitoring (statistical development) and faults.

The light intensity control can be carried out individually or divided into control groups, either by acting manually on the lamps or by customizing up to 6 fully automatic programs.

The control platform is exclusively online and can also be controlled by mobile devices, equipped with a standard Google Maps application for immediate location of the lamp / control group.

Communication between terminal and coordinator is totally secure and encrypted via https protocol.

The system consists of:

  • A coordinator, responsible for the exchange of information with the lamps (dimming commands and operating status), who must be connected to the internet. Available in economy version with Ethernet connection or in GPRS 3G version using the mobile network. Each coordinator can control up to 150 lamps and the maximum distance reachable in open field with the first lamp is 50 m.
  • Radio controllers mounted inside each lamp, operating at 868MHz. For better reliability of operation and operating distance, the lamps create a mesh communication network, replicating in turn the signal sent by the coordinator. It is not necessary for all lamps to be mounted within the coordinator's field.

The system is used for street lighting, large car parks and control of tunnel entrances.

Zigbee

It’s an automatic system, completely integrated in the light fixtures that does not require any additional wiring or external hardware.

Designed to reduce the luminous flux according to a preset program with a maximum of 5 phases (time bands) per operation cycle, each one customizable with a different level of reduction as shown in the image on the side.

For the first 3 days after installation, the lamps will operate at full power, acquiring ignition times, and then begin to reduce power from the fourth day. Operation is based on the calculation of a virtual midnight (mid-ignition point) which is used as a midnight reference for the programmed reduction scenario.

The virtual midnight calculation is automatic and continuously updated throughout the year.

The system is particularly used for street and parking lot lighting.

Power-line communication

It is a lamp management system that uses existing power supply cables.

Pulses are sent through the cables at frequencies much higher than the normal 50/60Hz frequency which are interpreted by the control units inside the individual light points as commands to vary the luminous flux.

The system can be used with all our road and tunnel luminaires.

Luminance probe

Our wireless remote control system and the powerline, for the management of the tunnel entrances, communicate with a luminance probe mounted outside that detects in real time the level of natural light, adjusting the intensity of the lamps to avoid the black hole effect and glare.
