The SLC-816 DC PLC controller is a peripheral device in the intelligent lighting system, providing control over LED fixtures, including brightness adjustment and changing the color temperature. Thanks to the PLC (Power Line Communication) protocol, data exchange between devices occurs over power lines, which simplifies integration into existing systems and eliminates the need for additional control cables. The SLC-816 DC PLC controller processes and transmits data on the fixture's status (failure, loss of communication, etc.) and dimming level, as well as acts as a signal repeater, enhancing the efficiency of information transfer between devices.
A distinctive feature of this controller is the capability of correlating color temperature (CCT, Correlated Color Temperature), allowing for the change of lighting temperature from 2700 to 6000 Kelvin. This function is accessible provided that the fixture is equipped with the appropriate diodes.
Lighting controllers designed for use in intelligent lighting systems possess a number of advanced features. They integrate with smart management systems, allowing for the adjustment of their brightness and color temperature. These lighting controllers can automatically adapt to environmental changes, such as altering light intensity based on the time of day or weather conditions.
