Autani LLC has created a product certification program to drive forward open standards within wireless connectivity in smart buildings.
“We are working together with players in the IoT field to provide more product choices that fit into smart building ecosystems,” says Scott Metker, COO of Autani.
Chris Holstein, VP product management at Universal Lighting Technologies, says, “Our Autani-certified products open the door for access to smart lighting that will install in nearly any building type.” Its ZB-LKR-A Wireless Adapter functions as a dimmable light while its ZB-WOR-A Wireless Sensor functions as an occupancy sensor, light sensor and dimmable light. Both are certified for interoperability with Zigbee Home Automation products and enable luminaires equipped with the EVERLINE ID Series of intelligent LED drivers to be wirelessly controlled on a Zigbee wireless mesh network.
Landon Miles who oversees intelligent product development at Inventronics says, “Our CNV-ZIGB wireless dimming converter delivers advanced lighting controls for a range of indoor and outdoor lighting applications. When used within Autani’s EnergyCenter ecosystem, we can provide wireless interoperability.” Inventronics is a LED driver manufacturer.
Jim Bailey, senior manager at LG Electronics USA, says, “We have partnered with Autani to expand our breadth of LED lighting controls and luminaires featuring ZigBee integrated wireless technology.” LG’s highbays, Wireless Scheduling Switch with full wireless control, and LG ZAT + wireless dongle all use open protocol wireless technology, which provides the flexibility to upgrade to a full lighting management system (LMS) or a building management system (BMS).
