Lighting Controls

Decide how the lighting should operate before choosing the control hardware. Occupancy response, manual dimming and daylight operation lead to different devices and compatibility requirements. Occupancy sensors address movement-based operation, while photocells serve ambient-light switching needs. The correct selection depends on the fixture or driver, electrical load, wiring and required coverage.

For a coordinated commercial project, identify which zones need each function and whether the specified products can work together. Review protocols and supported settings on the actual devices before committing to the control package.
