Flexibility
Community centers have a variety of spaces often spread across multiple buildings or stories with a large number of staff and rotating instructors making traditional control systems difficult to manage. Lightcloud makes it easy to control all of your areas and ensure everyone always has the right access.
Outdoor and Stadium Lighting: Outdoor devices are often spread over long distances with lots of natural light. Lightcloud devices communicate up to 1000′ apart and repeat the signal for near limitless distances. If devices are too far apart, our wireless Gateways can create additional mesh networks that communicate with each other over a secure, cellular signal.
Control Strategies: Exterior lighting often incorporates astronomical schedules (schedules based on sunrise and sunset), daylight harvesting (dimming lights to account for natural light in a space), motion sensing to ensure no one is ever in the dark, and scenes for events, and overrides for manual controls.
Common Spaces, Lecture Halls, Recreational Facilities: Interior spaces have their own challenges with a variety of lighting types and needs. Lightcloud can control nearly any fixture type. High bays and recessed fixtures are often purchased with Lightcloud pre-installed, then decorative fixtures such as pendants are typically installed on-site.
Control Strategies: Interior lighting often incorporates schedules, daylight harvesting, bi-level dimming, scenes, and manual overrides.
Multiple Buildings and Locations
Community centers whether local or national are often comprised of several different buildings, floors, or a mixture of indoor and outdoor lighting. Lightcloud makes it easy to manage all of these spaces from a single centralized location or multiple locations.
User-Friendly
Multiple Users: Lightcloud makes it easy to manage lots of users with varying access requirements. With Lightcloud, you can create user accounts for each instructor or coach using a facility and give them the precise controls they need. After their course or season is over, the controls can be disabled until the following session. Lightcloud has two user types: administrators and standard users. Administrators have the ability to control all of Lightcloud. Standard Users are assigned specific Areas or zones to control and can’t change device settings.
Support: Every Lightcloud system includes 10 years of concierge service, which includes remote support, diagnostics, and recommissioning. That means if at any point during those 10 years a customer wants to make changes or get support for the system, customers can call 1.844.Lightcloud, and Lightcloud Support will make the changes remotely.
Powerful Features
Lightcloud is the most powerful lighting control system and offers a number of capabilities that other systems simply can’t.
Centralized Management: Lightcloud enables the entire system to be managed from anywhere, so you don’t need access to any of the devices to change settings or view the status of the system. All you need is an internet-connected device to access the full system.
Alerts: In the event of a problem such as a lamp needing maintenance, Lightcloud can send you notifications, so issues can quickly be addressed.
Energy Monitoring: Lightcloud enables you to see the actual energy being used by each device and provides insights to save even more. Typical Lightcloud installations save on average 40%-90% of lighting-related energy use.
Permissions: Lightcloud has multiple user types and each user can be given access to the entire site, specific Areas, or individual fixtures.
Systems Integration: Lightcloud can be combined with other systems such as alarms or HVAC via BACnet or Triggers.
