Integrated Smart Lighting Control System
Third Generation
DAE INSTRUMENT CORP.1
Hybrid Digital and Analog SystemThe SLCS is the latest advance in the field of intelligent lighting controls and is widely used in various types of public building control, smart homes and hotel rooms. The SLCS integrates the two-wire control of second generation digital lighting controls with conventional switches and primary load wiring. This allows the SLCS to combine the benefits of using conventional switches together with the advantages of having digital lighting control such as having remote control, multiple access, and scene selection. Previously, conventional and digital lighting controls are incompatible with each other, one has to choose one or the other. But the SLCS proves that this need not be the case and one can have the best of both worlds.
Gaining the Benefits of Conventional SwitchesDigital lighting controls allow for unprecedented control, but conventional switches have the advantages of being familiar to operate, highly reliable, easy to maintain, low cost and available in a wide variety of attractive designs which are all qualities that cannot be easily duplicated using digital switches. These are all features that can only be found in the third generation SLCS.
Easy to Use Yet Highly ExpandableThe SLCS does not require a central controller, and is very affordable even for building small systems consisting only of a few loads. A basic network only requires a two wire cable for connecting the various components. Setup does not require special software or specialized tools. The system is highly scalable and can be expanded using the same basic building blocks into hundreds of loads.
Low Price, High ValueIn the past, intelligent lighting controls systems have always been expensive and can only be found in high end places. The SLCS provides excellent value for the money and not only can it enhance the quality of life, but it can also help significantly in saving energy. It is a technology that should be an indispensable part of any building renovations or new construction.
System Architecture
DAE INSTRUMENT CORP. 2
Only a single pair of data communication line is needed to connect
the digital switches or diverse conventional switches with the
various components of the SLCS to form a high-tech lighting control
system that allows the user to control the system from virtually
anywhere in the building.

The SLCS has an auto-learning capability
that allows users of small scale applications
to configure the system themselves for
various switch and pattern combinations
without resorting to any special tool or software.
Conventional Wall Switch
The smart or digital home is definitely one of the latest and life changing inventions of the Internet Age.
Not only does digital lighting control do away with the conventional notion of having to hardware one
switch to one light, but it can do so much more, such as being able to change the scene, turning on or
off entire groups of lights, controlling the curtains or air conditioning all the flick of a switch bringing a
new level of sophistication and convenience to the digital home.
The SLCS allows the diverse range of elegantly designed and attractive conventional switches to be
integrated as part of the SLCS. More importantly, in case a problem occurs on the part of the digital
controls, conventional switches remain operational, acting as a failsafe and greatly increasing system
reliability.
Cleverly integrating the conventional with digital is just
the beginning with the SLCS, as it goes even further
by allowing devices such as digital intercoms, iPods
and iPads to become controllers as well, greatly
increasing the number of choices for control access
and user convenience.

- In the living and dining rooms, one can quickly switch
to the desired mood such as dining, family gathering,
watching TV or reading all at the flick of a button.
- Mood lighting is all about using a clever combination of
the unique properties of digital control, lighting and
dimming by the interior designer to change a room
from a static into a dynamic environment, transforming
it into an almost magical space.
Conventional Switch Integration - A Melding of Technology And Art
Conventional switches with their multitude of shapes, colors, materials is most suited for
the diverse needs of the interior designer.
- In conjunction with the LT3070, conventional switches become more than just single light
switches, but can be made to activate a preset lighting pattern to set any desired scenery.
- With the LT3036, conventional switches would still be able to retain its normal on/off
operation even with a failure of the system bus.

Office Lighting Control System Traditional System
Reconfigurable Office Lighting LayoutFor rental office buildings, it is often necessary to reconfigure the lighting wiring
depending on the needs of the tenant and the layout of the rooms. This results in time
consuming and expensive renovation. By using the Office Lighting Control System
(OLCS), it is possible to reconfigure the lighting layout without having the physically
rewire the system by simply changing the settings of the OLCS in a manner similar to a
telephone switchboard.
(A single switch can control
multiple lighting circuits simultaneously)

Commercial Space
DAE INSTRUMENT CORP.7
It is often necessary to make use of conventional switches due to their variety and design to match the visual appeal in a commercial environment to facilitate access and pattern activation from multiple locations.
Integrating Conventional Switches Into A Digital System
For places such as restaurants, theaters, conference halls, shopping centers, hospitals,
motels, amusement areas, multi-storied buildings and other large and spacious public
areas, it is often necessary to reduce unnecessary movement just to control the lights.
Hence it would be desirable to have a more convenient and centralized location for the
lighting control or even to have the capability to automatically control the lights through a
fixed schedule. It is even possible activate preset lighting patterns to have a more
dynamic and appealing commercial environment. One can even remotely control the
lighting or ventilation through the use of a web enabled mobile phone.
Scheduling, Patterns and Centralized Control
DAE INSTRUMENT CORP. 8
Each lighting load can be controlled automatically with its
own schedule. The DM825 is schedule controller with a
web based interface to set the desired schedule as well
as the capability to temporarily override the schedule
control.
In a hotel room, simply press the button at the
bedside to select the desired lighting mood, such
as casual, watching TV or for sleeping.
By centralizing the lighting and air conditioning controls of
all the hotel rooms at the front desk, it would be possible to
remotely turn both the lighting and air conditioning on for
the comfort and convenience of the guest before they
occupy the room, and conversely to turn both off when the
guest checks out to reduce energy consumption.

Hotel Front Desk Control
A central location such as at a reception desk or
security office can be established to collect all the
controls that will allow one to conveniently monitor the
real time status as well as to remotely control the lights.
During peak hours, the lights would be turned
on, but during the evenings, control reverts to
IR sensors, which would allow the lights to
turn on and off automatically and only as
needed when there are people around.
Depending on the activity or event, it is
necessary to preset different types of patterns
to achieve a desired lighting scene or mood.
Using the touch panel screen, one can easily
select the desired pattern at a touch.
For rental office buildings, it is often necessary to reconfigure the lighting wiring depending on the needs of a tenant or the layout of the rooms. This results in expensive renovation costs and is time consuming. By using the Office Lighting Control System (OLCS), it is possible to reconfigure the lighting layout by simply changing the settings of the OLCS.
Public Facilities
DAE INSTRUMENT CORP.9
On Site and Centralized Operation- A choice of both conventional and digital switches are available for on site operation.- A color touch screen panel can be placed at the administrators office to centrally control all the lighting and air conditioning to reduce the need to move around, effectively demonstrating the energy efficiency of using high technology.
Even when the operator is not at their station, they can
still go online to setup the schedule, and to temporarily
start or stop a particular lighting group depending on the
pressing needs of the moment.

other as desired at the touch of a switch.
A central location such as at a reception desk
or security office can be established to collect
all the controls that will allow one to
conveniently monitor the real time status as
well as to remotely control the lights.
It is also possible to have each lighting circuit
have its own individual schedule controlled
automatically. The DM825 schedule controller
features a web interface to set the desired
schedule as well as the capability to
temporarily override the schedule control.
During peak hours, the lights would be turned
on, but during the evenings, control reverts to
IR sensors, which would allow the lights to
turn on and off automatically and only as
needed when there are people around.

iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch Universal Remote ControlIn the living room or home theater, the lighting, curtains and audio/visual
equipment and even the air conditioning can all be operated from IR
remote enabled iPad or iPod Touch.
Attaching an IR remote accessory turns the iPad or iPod Touch into a
universal remote control which can be used to control various equipment
including the TV, A/V, stereo, DVD, curtains, projector, the lighting and air
conditioning. The lighting can be further be fine tuned by a selection of
moods such as casual, relaxation, gathering, serene, romantic, etc.
※ When the lights are physically close to the switches, conventional switches may
be used in conjunction with the LT3000, LT3036 or LT3070.
※ Conventional switches may also be used to operate in group or pattern modes just
like digital switches.
Other Control Devices
A choice of 5" or 7" screens are available to act as operator interfaces, with the 7" having the option for different network communication interfaces.
※ Conventional switches connected to either LT3000/LT3070 can be made to control one of load circuits of the
LT3036, thus forming a toggle pair. In a similar manner, a pattern mode of operation can also be established
between the LT3000/LT3070 and the LT3036.
※ A combination of the LT3036 and conventional switches will allow the conventional switches to retain its basic
operation even when there is a malfunction in the device or in the digital network which provides a failsafe and
continued operation until such time that proper repairs can be made.
Color Touch Panel Operation
The display shows the status of the lighting load, and is in sync with the status display at the local site.Multiple touch panels can be placed at different locations for the same system.
※ Conventional swches are easy to replace and maintain.
※ The required wiring for the SLCS is similar to conventional wiring.

This feature is not limited to digital switches but is also available
with touch panels and conventional switches.
The third floor is the local control switch, while another switch is located at the administrative office on the first floor. For example, a person turns the lights on while on the third floor, but forgets to turn off the lights after leaving. The operator at the administration office sees from the button indicator lamp that the third floor lights are on and turns it off from an alternate button right at the office.
※One enters at a point A to turn on the light, while leaving at another point B, there is no need to go back to point A to turn off the lights, one can turn off the lights at point B.
※From the touch panel screen, one can see the status of the same lights and at the same time provide an alternate point of control to turn off the lights in case the user forgets.
The output of the LT4500 is 0-10V and requires a separate dimming ballast or electronic dimmer.
Press once to activate the pattern with some loads turning on, some turning off, and others adjusting to a preset brightness.
