Key Features

Motion sensing allows the system to automatically switch on the lights when a group becomes occupied (auto on) and switch them off when the group becomes vacant (auto off).

Daylight Dependent Regulation allows the system to take advantage of the ambient light coming through windows or translucent ceilings to dim the lights to a minimum of 0%, 5% or 20%. This is achieved by using the sensors to continuously measure the light level and adjust the brightness of the luminaires to keep the light level at a target setpoint.

Daylight Dependent switching allows the lights in DDR zones to switch off completely (dim to off) when the ambient light level is sufficient.

Outdoor parking daylight override allows for the outdoor parking sensors (LCN4120, LCN4150) to switch off when ambient light is sufficient. This enables luminaires in outdoor parking applications to remain off during the day and only operate at night, or when low light level conditions occur.

Wireless switches provide users with the ability to manually control their lighting environment. These switches offer various functionalities such as on/off control, dimming, color temperature adjustment and scene selection.

Light behavior templates are predefined configurations that determine how groups of lights respond to motion (occupancy), no motion (vacancy) and light level (DDR). These templates contain light level and time delay parameters that can be customized to suit specific needs and scenarios.

Scenes are used to set the intensity level of individual lights or zones in a group for manual recall. If Tunable White lights are in the group, the color temperature can also be adjusted. They can be recalled using switches, the app, and if gateways are used, the web portal. Two scenes can be assigned to 4-button switches.

Interact ready luminaires that support Tunable White allow for control of the output color temperature in addition to light intensity.

High end trim limits the maximum output level of a group of lights. Selecting a high-end trim other than default (no trim) lowers the maximum possible light output of the group.

Schedules provide the ability to define control behaviors for groups at selected day(s) of the week and at a fixed time of day. A single schedule can be defined with actions for multiple groups, with on, off and scene selection actions available for each group.

In projects with gateways, remote control enables users to perform on/off control, dimming, color temperature adjustment and scene selection of their lighting system from anywhere, using the app or portal. For experts, behavior configuration changes and remote deployment using the app are also possible.

The Interact Pro web portal provides system monitoring capabilities. Energy consumption can be viewed and Interact ready luminaires and devices that have failed or are degraded (> 80% of lifespan burning hours) are reported.

Energy reporting allows users to generate .csv reports for specified date ranges up to one year prior. In the report, incremental energy consumption (in Wh) is reported every 15 minutes for every group in the project.

The Interact Pro app, web portal and cloud are regularly updated to enable new features and fix issues. New device firmware may also be released to support these updates. Over-the-air (OTA) project updates are essential for keeping the system devices up to date with the latest firmware, ensuring optimal functionality and security and enabling new system features as they become available.

Demand response allows the lighting system to temporarily reduce its energy consumption. It operates as a temporary high-end trim across the entire project. In projects with gateways, manual and automatic demand response (ADR) options are available. ADR requires the addition of a dedicated ADR gateway and supporting infrastructure to achieve demand response through OpenADR. ADR enables automatic system response to requests sent by the local utility company to reduce energy consumption during times of peak energy usage.
