An-10 wireless lighting control technology
December 2012
Sensors & Transducers
CP Electronics’ An-10 wireless technology allows the user to install a fully featured lighting control system easily and with minimal disruption. An-10 has been specifically created to embrace the advantages of wireless technology, while at the same time offering all of the features and functionality demanded by modern day lighting control systems.
System functionality is achieved by programming, not hard wiring, making it easy to design the operation of the lighting system. If the living or working space has to be reorganised, all that is required is to move and/or reprogram the devices for the new layout. This is particularly useful for open-plan environments. Adding extra devices is simple. No additional control wiring is required; simply install the extra device, program it into the system and it is ready to go!
The UHS4 is a compact infrared handset used for the basic programming and configuration of An-10 detectors, ballast controllers and input units. It also offers user control of scene selection and raise/lower functions. The UNLCDHS is a compact infrared handset used for the operation, configuration and programming of CP products that have the ability to be programmed via IR or RF.
