System Manager 1.39

Users can see the entire lighting control system at a glance, and perform complex functions, and select their preferred language from the sign-on screen.

Managers can divide a building into areas or zones such as meeting rooms, corridors, or offices for easier identification and control.

Power reporting and monitoring tools provide real-time energy reporting data, which can be measured against historical energy consumption and operational targets.

Powerful scheduling and astronomical functions allow events to be triggered at specific times and dates, providing significant energy savings. Observe unusual building occupancy patterns, control system usage, and monitor building activities such as cleaning or security mode functions.

SM can identify luminaires approaching end-of-life, and detect compatible lamp/driver failures as well as other faults in the system. The alerts overview provides a summary of current alerts in the system, with details on the state of each item, enabling users to plan, prioritize, and track maintenance activities.

Buttons on the System Manager console can be configured to initiate any system function, from simple lighting scene selection or channel level control up to complex preprogrammed tasks and schedules. Users have easy access to the functions they need, without navigating past unnecessary or locked controls to find them.

Users can create, store, and recall both sequential and conditional tasks, to be initiated by user input, system events, environmental conditions, or a predetermined schedule. Examples include turning on/off lights, HVAC, and other services within a building or area in a particular order, toggling system behavior between business and after-hours, or running scheduled emergency lighting tests at particular dates and times.

SM Switch is a virtual control panel that any building occupant can run on their computer desktop to control local lighting for increased productivity and comfort.

SM Switch can also dim local fixtures when the computer is idle. When the computer is switched off, the lighting control system can detect that SM Switch is offline. This information, combined with sensor occupancy status and preprogrammed timeouts, allows the system to intelligently manage lighting in unoccupied areas.
