Smart Lighting Solutions For Smart Cities, Simplified

Instruments Universal redefined outdoor lighting controls by providing a complete transformation in the way street lighting maintenance is performed – most notably is its ease of installation (programming and commissioning), compatibility with existing circuits and wiring, energy benefits and data management as well as its immediate response to street lighting failures and reporting capabilities.

A number of drivers are causing cities, counties, and states to better control their street lighting networks:

• Rapidly increasing price of electricity – Dimming & scheduling will help to lower electricity expenses
• Real-time monitoring – Reduced operating cost will save millions of citizen money on maintenance
• Energy conservation, management, and demand/response programs (Smart Grid initiatives)
• More security and safety
• Efficient budget management
• Adaptive roadway lighting
• Smart grid integration
• The Street Light Control System offers a quick and easy solution for new or existing street light networks
• A single internet connected network gateway can control up to 400 nodes
• Self registering offers worry free installation experience, instant Access and Visibility
• Safe and secure web based interface grants instant access to your networks
• Google Maps integrations provides click and control access to individual lights, set groups or the entire network
• Dimming & scheduling based on custom schedule or Astronomical timing based
• Utility grade metering, allows accurate measuring and reporting for energy usage and cost analysis. (xxxxxxxx standards)
• Color coded icons indicate operational performance over the last 24 hours
• Luminary mapping tool allows users to pinpoint outages quickly and easily and navigate directly to the pole that needs attention

A complete System Approach to Street Light Control and Monitoring

• Tool less installation of nodes, no additional wiring required

• Self registering nodes blink each street light to ensure it has been connected to and identified by the network
• A variety of mounting options provides easy installation in a variety of applications and scenarios
• Gateway connection via a wide variety of options including Ethernet, 2G, 3G
• Highly scalable, cost effective, self-healing mesh RF communications network allows for flexible and worry free implantation
