Lighting Control

1. Overview

Lighting Control refers to automated systems that manage illumination levels in industrial and commercial environments. These systems integrate sensors, controllers, and actuators to optimize energy efficiency, enhance operational safety, and improve user comfort. Modern Lighting Control systems are critical components in smart building management, factory automation, and energy-saving initiatives, offering precise regulation of lighting based on occupancy, daylight availability, and operational schedules.

2. Main Types and Functional Classification

Type	Functional Features	Application Examples
Time-Based Control	Programmable schedules with timer relays or PLC integration	Factory shift lighting management
Occupancy Sensing	PIR/microwave sensors detect presence for on-demand lighting	Warehouse aisle illumination
Daylight Harvesting	Photosensors adjust artificial lighting based on ambient light	Office perimeter zones
Networked Systems	Centralized management via BACnet/DALI protocols	Smart building automation
Emergency Lighting Control	Integrated battery monitoring with automatic testing	Hospital evacuation routes

3. Structure and Components

Typical Lighting Control systems consist of:

Hardware:
- Controllers (PLC/DSP-based)
- Environmental sensors (light/occupancy)
- Actuators (relay modules, dimmers)
- Communication interfaces (RS485, Zigbee, KNX)
Software:
- Control algorithms (PID, fuzzy logic)
- Configuration tools (EIB/KNX software)
- Cloud integration platforms
