LUXMATE LITENET
Lighting management of the future
The LITENET lighting management system stands for flexible, economically efficient use of buildings, meeting tenants’ requirements. It allows different room layouts without changing room fixtures and fittings.

Convenience, energy optimisation or control: "On demand" functions such as dimming, control of blinds based on daylight, standard interfaces and control variants enable the lighting solution to easily adjust to changing requirements at any time. This enables step-by-step expansion from a switched installation to contemporary dimming solutions or programmed lighting scenes to meet different visual tasks such as screen-based work, meetings or beamer presentations.
Depending on the individual user’s demands made on the lighting solution, the functions selected can be enabled. For this purpose, the system administrator uses the "LITENET inside" software to find out how many "flex-credits" are required for upgrading. When new tenants move in, functions available can be reduced, and free "credits" can be used for other functions.
Demand-oriented concepts of use at a click on the mouse
The LITENET lighting management system minimises effort and expenses also with flexible and demand-oriented concepts of use in office buildings. Individually addressable DALI-based luminaires are installed on the basis of the building’s axes. The task area can be extended to comprise several workstations, desks can be rearranged without any compromise in terms of lighting quality, new room partitioning schemes can be created.
Assigning new uses to rooms can be done easily at a click on the mouse. This simplification is based on so-called room profiles. Here, uses as conference rooms, offices, corridors or communication areas are stored. All the Facility Manager has to do is to change the relevant parameters such as the main and secondary times of use as well as the dimming levels assigned, according to the actual situation.
LITENET for buildings of any size
With its choice of topologies (“economy”, “compact” or “flexible”), LITENET can be adjusted to any building size. For smaller applications (up to 500 output addresses), not even a separate server is required.
LITENET Utilizing daylight to optimum effect
LITENET allows optimum utilization of daylight. The central daylight sensor supplies data for calculating the amount of daylight currently available. In the process, a distinction is made between direct and diffuse light, and the sunscreening blinds will automatically travel to the optimum position. Shadows cast by adjacent buildings are also taken into account, and the operator of the building can easily make appropriate adjustments.
Energy efficiency guaranteed by providing minimum illuminance
The LITENET lighting management system also displays its strengths by meeting the requirements of European standard EN 12464 in an energy-efficient manner. Compliance with the minimum illuminance specified in this standard usually results in the over-dimensioning of lighting installations and consequently in an increase of energy consumption, as maintenance factors such as ageing of lamps, soiling of luminaires etc. must be taken into account. This is counteracted by the "maintenance control" function, one of the system's basic functions; combined with switchable "dimming on demand" luminaires by Zumtobel or dimmable DALI luminaires, the lamp output is set to the level required.
These features make the easy-to-install LITENET lighting management system a trendsetter for the efficient operation of buildings. This is also supported by the fact that the system is compatible with all common standards such as TCP/IP or DALI as well as interfaces to other services and the building management system via OPC and BACnet. LITENET can also be linked with the ONLITE emergency lighting system by ZUMTOBEL, which increases the safety standard and rounds off the comprehensive options provided by the system.
