The Lighting Control Module (LEX-M) provides intelligent control functions to light fixtures through a Zhaga Book 18 compliant 4 pin DALI interface.

It provides a proven, reliable, real time wireless control network between fixtures allowing intelligent dimming algorithms to optimise power savings or task lighting.

Because of the intelligence within the unit, it can operate independently of a Central Management System (CMS), facilitating autonomous lighting that "looks after itself" without needing constant communication with the CMS. However, it can report to, and be configured by such a system, thereby providing the flexibility of IOT/Cloud without the cost and vulnerability of maintaining communications with the CMS.

The device provides a current limited DALI bus output, but can optionally support 0-10V or PWM dimming and can monitor fixture temperature or remote sensor voltage through an analogue input.

Light sensing and internal temperature are also options available.

Control

Full spectrum throughout tuneable colour temperature range of 2500K - 6000K.

Fantastic Colour Rendering >95CRI.

Excellent Cyanosis Index (COI) < 1.0

Full range dimming 0-100%.

Zero Flicker.

Control

The LEX-M adds intelligent wireless control to standard LED drivers capable of "System Ready" interface, using DALI or 0-10V dimming. It interacts with other LEX-M's in real time over a selfestablishing RF network, providing optimal lighting while minimising wasted light output in off-peak times, or times when there is little or no activity.

Supports reporting of local environmental conditions or activity.

Simple "Plug and Play" operation eliminates the need for laborious commissioning.

Over-the-air software upgrades.

Optional Sensing of:

• Interacts with motion sensors
• Supports Environmental Sensing
