Home Control
Control your home, office or any other property in ways you never before imagined. Luxury is more than décor, the furniture and the address – it is the lifestyle. Now, not just mood lighting is controlled at your fingertips, security systems, AV equipment, household appliances, climatic conditioning, electrical equipment, and of course lighting controls, all converge and integrate into one smart but simple, easy-to-use system.
These systems offer you security, convenience and comfort.
Security
Hear a strange noise at night? Light up your home's security lights in a flash. You have the option of a panic mode that will light up your whole house instantly. All external as well as internal lights will turn on to maximum brightness. If desired, your Smart Home System can also be linked to your security system for even greater peace of mind.
There is an alternative setting when you are on holiday aimed at deterring would be burglars by giving your home the lived-in look. Lights can be turned on and off at set times and curtains can be opened during the day and closed at night again, all according to a schedule.
For added safety, if a smoke alarm is triggered, lights can be programmed to instantly come on to illuminate the path to safety. In addition, if a sensor detects a leak then the gas and water supply can be automatically shut-off.
Convenience
Home integrated systems enable you to have one touch control of lighting, heating/cooling, sprinkler systems, appliances and more. They give you the freedom to create your own lighting at the touch of a button, letting you create and adjust lighting scenes for every mood and event.
Whenever you come home you can select the welcome mode to activate the system to create the perfect environment by turning on selected room lights, heating and music.
Comfort
Turn every light off from the comfort of your bedside light switch and set lights to half brightness overnight to minimise glare.
Forget going around your house and turning off all the lights. Simply press your “Goodnight” button on your remote (or switch next to your bed) and all lights will fade off. If you need to get up during the night, hit another button to turn on lights dimmed to half brightness so as to not disturb the rest of the household; perfect for getting ready for that early morning flight or feeding the baby in the early hours.
The lighting can be programmed to maintain a continuous desired level within the building; consequently if it is a bright day the lights will automatically dim and increase as daylight diminishes.
Some people can find repetitive switching a difficult task. Your system can be set up to simplify these tasks and create pre-set lighting sequences, controlled automatically from a single button for morning, bathroom, welcome home and good night.
These systems provide you with greater flexibility as they allow you to add extra wireless switches and change the function of the switch; for example an additional light control can be added to a switch without the need for additional cabling and consequently greater upheaval.
Lighting control
The effective use of lighting in the hone or commercial establishment can significantly contribute to the overall appearance of the room. Lighting control is becoming easier to integrate with the development of wireless lighting systems. The wireless systems (retrofit) can be incorporated into new builds or replace existing switches.
Now more than ever there is a greater choice of lighting switches available to meet your requirements. Lighting switch cover plates can be simply replaced to suit your décor. They are available in a variety of colours, materials and design; for example you may opt for the Australian style switches which are rectangular in shape compared to the traditional square European style. Lighting switches can also control the mood in the room, by using a dimmer switch you can have bright light for working and soft lighting for relaxing.
