The 2nd generation Smart Lighting Controller from MICROSENS optimises the interaction of IP networked lighting solutions

Intelligent, reliable, decentralised: the MICROSENS Lighting Concept
The MICROSENS Smart Lighting System offers a decentralised lighting solution for intelligent buildings. The special feature: Standard network cables simultaneously supply electricity and data for the energy-saving, dimmable LED lighting. In contrast to other networked lighting solutions, no time-consuming and cost-intensive installation of bus systems needs to be undertaken. 

The 2nd generation Smart Lighting Controller
The Smart Lighting Controller represents the link between the LED lights and the Smart Engine, a decentralised control unit in the room. It incorporates the luminaire into the IP network and controls data traffic intelligently between the network, sensors, and lights. The controller ensures the correct power supply by transforming the operating voltage provided via PoE into an adaptive energy supply for the lights. There is also the possibility of connecting a Smart Sensor to the controller, acquiring data and transmitting environmental parameter data - such as brightness, temperature, motion, or even moisture - to the Smart Engine. It runs the Smart Director app, which evaluates the environmental parameters acquired, sends commands back to the relevant controller unit and adjusts the lighting accordingly. Standard functions like motion control or automatic dimming under direct sunlight are pre-installed and just need to be configured.

Each room can have different behaviours or so-called scenarios defined. As soon as the sensor detects certain environmental conditions, the system reacts autonomously. Alternatively, a gateway provides users with several options to regulate lighting as required, also via their PC or mobile devices.

The Smart Lighting System is a cornerstone of the MICROSENS Smart Building Solutions business unit and offers universal building automation solutions over IP. In this centralised approach, each room has an intelligent control unit, thus achieving the greatest possible scalability. The system is suitable for an individual conference room as well as for larger office buildings. Sensors and actuators can be flexibly linked via the appropriate gateways with a wired or wireless connection. This creates an extremely flexible and future-proof automation solution for modern buildings.
