Centralized Lighting

The most common form of lighting control today is a single switch or dimmer controlling a light or group of lights (a zone of lighting). While this historic standard certainly works, it is cumbersome relative to the ease of a lighting control system, especially in larger homes. Think of the time and effort expended turning the lights on in the morning, off when you go to work, back on in the evening, and finally off again at bedtime. When you think of the quantity of the dimmers and switches that you need to walk around turning on and off throughout the day, the convenience of a lighting control system quickly becomes apparent.

A lighting control system creates the ability for all of a home’s lighting to be controlled together. For instance, one button press can turn on six dimmers, each to the ideal brightness for the task at hand, whether it is relaxing with a book, watching a movie, or cleaning. The picture at the right depicts how a single keypad can replace a bank of switches or dimmers, while still providing all the functionality—in a much smaller space. And a lighting control system is not just limited to controlling lights in a single room or area—the lights in an entire home can be controlled with the press of a single button. Imagine the time and effort that can be saved by hitting one button when you go to bed to turn the lights off rather than trudging around the house going from room to room manually turning off each dimmer or switch.
