Lighting controls by Ex-Or will be supplied to the University of Manchester over the next three years.
The company's LightSpot system comprises controllers and photocells and is employed to automatically switch lights on and off, dim and brighten them, by monitoring natural light.
Lighting control from Ex-Or has been utilised on Clifton Suspension Bridge, Bristol. The company's SceneSelect II will control thousands of LEDs, fluorescent tubes and lamps. A variety of pre-programmed lit displays are summoned by using a touch screen control. Rather than individually switching on separate lights to create a lit scene, the screen control summons the programmed scene.
Lighting management systems from Ex-Or have been specified for the extension to Guildford College of Law's learning resource centre.
Applying the company's LightSpot presence detection system, it automatically switches the lights on and off depending on presence. They also monitor levels of natural light, ensuring they only switch on if there is no daylight. The SceneSelect II, an automatic scene-setting and dimming system, was installed so that previously programmed environments cab be used, and allows presenters to control the plasma screen and lighting for laptops.
