Addressable Zoning Module

The Zone Controller zoning module allows you to simultaneously control your lighting system locally using Easylite controls, and remotely using a PC. Create individual, addressable zones of lighting and independently control each zone’s usage parameters. Separate areas of your facility can enjoy different light levels, independent schedules for centralized time-clock control, and unique strategies for “Peak Demand Load Shedding”. For improved user comfort and maximum lighting efficiency the Zone Controller combines personal local control with centralized building management.

Advantages

Easy to scale. The Zone Controller system is configured by using low voltage wiring to “daisy chain” up to 64 Zone Controller modules throughout a facility. Low voltage wiring eliminates the need to install a separate home run from each zone back to a central computer. Link central computers together and you enjoy unlimited scalability.

Four independent zones per Zone Controller. Each Zone Controller offers centralized control for up to four independently addressable lighting zones. Each of these four zones has a unique address and can be independently controlled for light level by time of day operation.

Low voltage control signal. Zone Controller modules receive the digital control signal generated by the EasyTalk control system, interpret any changes requested for its zones, and then translate that command into a low- voltage analog control signal for the appropriate lighting zone.

Interface with your peak KW demand meter. A facility’s peak kW demand meter may be connected to the Zone Controller loop, allowing scheduled proportional reduction in zone light levels to maintain the building at a pre-set peak demand billing level.
