Use sensors instead of switches🔗
If occupancy sensors are connected to the AWADA platform, lighting in your facility can be turned on and off automatically. Employees don't have to look for switches and turn off the lights behind them every time.
When a person enters the room, the sensor sends a signal, after which the lights turn on. When a person leaves, the sensor sends a signal to turn off the lights.
Working with sensors helps save energy and minimizes manual operation.
Check that the luminaires work by occupancy sensors🔗
- Navigate to the desired end location.
- Make sure the AUTO toggle switch on the side panel is on. If it is off, the lights are operating in manual mode.
- Go to the light zone setup and check:
- In the diagram, the presence sensor should be connected to the other settings. If it is not connected, click on the sensor icon.
- On the sensors tab, the presence sensor should be blue. If the sensor is not enabled, click on the sensor, it will turn blue.
- Verify live operation: go into the room when the lights are off. The lights should turn on. Then walk out of it and make sure they go out.
What you can configure additionally🔗
You can customize the automatic turning on of the lights to your requirements:
- Set the time in the light area for the lights to turn off after you leave. The less time you specify, the less electricity will be wasted.
- Customize the time you turn the lights on and off. The more time you specify, the smoother the luminaire will be turning on and off.
