Input Unit
The input units allow users to interact with the system or get input from the environment by means of sensing devices.
-
Wall switches have input keys which allow users to utilize short press/release and long press/release actions to affect lighting control.
-
Sensors, on the other hand, are units which convert data from sensing devices into C-Bus messages.
-
General input units receive analog or digital measurements from channels and convert the signals into event and broadcast measurement messages via the C-Bus.
Input units can be used to:
-
Control lighting conditions by manual switching or as a response to changes in lighting levels.
-
Control air conditioning according to ambient temperature.
-
Control security and access systems by responding to human presence or predetermined codes.
-
Convert measurement data into C-Bus event messaging.
C-Bus input units respond to certain stimuli - human touch, ambient light conditions, temperature and infrared radiation - and then send messages to appropriate output units in a predetermined way.
