The SLC-912-7 SC Hybrid controller is a peripheral device in the smart lighting system, providing control and dimming of LED luminaires. This controller supports data exchange protocols in hybrid mode, PLC (Power Line Communication) and LoRa (Long-Range Wireless), ensuring high and reliable communication. With the PLC protocol, data exchange between devices occurs via power lines, simplifying integration into existing systems and eliminating the need for additional control cables. The presence of LoRa ensures the controller communicates with various sensors (e.g., motion, traffic, and brightness sensors) installed in the system. The SLC-912-7 SC Hybrid controller processes and transmits data about the luminaire's status (e.g., failure, disconnection), dimming level, and also acts as a signal repeater, enhancing data transmission efficiency between devices.
The SLC-912-7 SC Hybrid's feature lies in utilizing the A41-357-NEMA connector standard, simplifying installation and maintenance. This standard is especially useful in cases of limited space within the luminaire housing. In some instances, luminaires are already equipped with this connector, easing their integration into the smart lighting system.
Lighting controllers designed for use in intelligent lighting systems come with a range of advanced features. They integrate with smart management systems, allowing for the adjustment of brightness and color temperature. Lighting control controllers enable automatic adaptation to environmental changes, such as adjusting light intensity based on the time of day or weather conditions.
