The Energio Concept
Being OPEN is all about Choices!
Open Standards = Choices
• The right to choose between wired and wireless control systems
• The right to choose components from different manufacturers
• The right to choose different dimming protocols (ex. 0-10V, DALI, DMX, etc.) for each area of a project
• The right to combined dimming protocols in the same space without complicated hardware and a degree in rocket science.
• The right to choose the technology a wireless system uses to communicate
• The right to choose which open standard firmware/platform the system you are designing will be based on
Open Communication and Application Firmware
Built on the Bluetooth and Wirepas wireless mesh network open standards, Energio incorporates 0-10v, DALI, DMX and Phase dimming into a single platform. You can now group fixtures that are controlled and dimmed using different technologies and protocols wirelessly.
Energio, can also easily interface with mechanical protocols such as BACnet, ModBus and KNX.
Hardware Freedom!
Unlike proprietary systems, with Energio you even have choices when it comes to system components and the companies that manufacture them. Energio works with multiple manufactures who make dimmer, sensors, wall stations, in-fixture nodes and even LED boards that support the open standard platforms we offer.
Don't like the look of one manufactures sensor? Simply choose another from another partner manufacturer!
Having an ecosystem of manufacturers also drives development. Ecosystem manufacturers are free to create new and unique devices to meet the needs of the market.
Open Dimming Protocols
Energio incorporates 0-10v, DALI, DMX and Phase dimming into a single platform. You can now group fixtures that are controlled and dimmed using different technologies and protocols wirelessly.
You can have fixtures using any dimming protocol in the same group and same scene without the need to a gateway!!
No Single Point of Failure
Through the use of the powerful Nordic Semiconductor nRF52 chipset and advanced Bluetooth mesh technology, the Energio system has no master device, meaning there is no single point of failure!
Each device (driver, sensor, wall switch, etc.) maintains 100% of the programming information for the entire network!
Simple field and factor level changes
Need to change from one control platform to another?
With Energio is is as simple as unplugging a chip flashed with one set of firmware and plugging in the same chip flashed with different control firmware. The same device (dimmer, sensors, wall station, etc.) can work with any of our open standard platforms.
Wired, Wireless or both!
Energio gives you the ability to create a 100% wireless system or to connect to fixtures with cables where it makes senses. Our hybrid topology allows for the ultimate in design flexiblity.
We can even add wireless fixtures to almost any existing wired system from almost any manufacturer!
