LumiSmart intelligent lighting controls

Lighting standards are changing

What does that actually mean for contractors?

Lighting isn't just about illumination any more. From energy performance and Part L to smarter buildings and intelligent controls, contractors are being asked to deliver more than ever. Six questions worth asking.

01Is Part L changing what clients expect?Absolutely. Clients increasingly expect lighting that saves energy, responds automatically and helps meet modern building standards, not just lighting that turns on and off.

02Why is everyone talking about LENI?Because it measures real performance. LENI looks at how much energy a lighting system actually uses, which makes the controls just as important as the luminaires.

03Why are controls appearing on more projects?Because they make sense. Automatic lighting cuts wasted energy and makes buildings run better, without making life more complicated.

04Why is commissioning becoming critical?Because installation is only half the job. Correct commissioning is what makes the system deliver the savings and functions the client paid for.

05Will smart buildings become the norm?Everything points that way. Buildings are becoming more connected, and lighting plays a growing part in how they run every day.

06Does smart lighting mean rewiring?Not necessarily. Wireless Bluetooth control removes the need for extra control wiring, so existing buildings can be upgraded on their existing infrastructure.

So where does the industry go next?

Five things we believe

Buildings should adapt.Lighting should too.

Technology should simplify work.Not create more work.

Lighting should provide insight.Not just illumination.

Contractors should create long-term value.Not just installations.

Systems should evolve with buildings.Not become obsolete.

That's why we created LumiSmart.

Buildings are becoming smarter, standards are evolving and clients expect more from their lighting. LumiSmart helps contractors meet those expectations with intelligent controls that are simple to install, easy to commission and designed to evolve as buildings change.

Because smart lighting should make your job easier, not more complicated.

Start with the building

What do you need your lighting to do?

LumiSmart starts with the building, the people using it and the problem to solve, not with the technology. Configure the lighting around the building rather than forcing the building around a rigid controls system.

1

Are lights on in empty areas?Occupancy-led control switches and dims them when nobody is there.

2

Is useful daylight available?Daylight harvesting turns the artificial light down when the sun is doing the job.

3

Do areas need different behaviours?Zones, groups, schedules and scenes are set up around the space.

4

Will the layout change?Wireless control means reconfiguring later without touching the control wiring.

5

Is this a retrofit?Existing buildings move to intelligent control without a separate control network.

6

Do you need visibility?Add the cloud for energy and occupancy insight where the project needs it.

How LumiSmart works

Advanced control. Made practical.

LumiSmart creates a wireless control network between compatible luminaires, sensors and controls. You get sophisticated lighting behaviours without the dedicated control wiring of traditional systems.

LuminairesThe light source

SensorsOccupancy and daylight

Wireless meshDevices talk to each other

ControlZones, profiles and behaviours

BuildingResponds intelligently

No dedicated control wiring. Standard power to the fittings, that's it.

INSTALLPLANCOMMISSIONFINE-TUNE

Highly scalableConnects and manages thousands of devices, for projects of any size.

Flexible networkAdaptable layouts to suit different building types and applications.

Self-healingReroutes automatically if a device or link fails, so it keeps running.

Fast and efficientReliable, low-latency communication with minimal power use.

Enterprise-grade securityBuilt-in encryption, authentication and access control.

Built on Bluetooth SIG Mesh 1.1 and compliant with the DLC NLC 5.1 standard.

What LumiSmart can do

The intelligence the building actually needs.

The value isn't the length of the feature list. It's combining the right control strategies around how each space is used.

Runs locally on the Bluetooth meshNo gateway needed

Daylight harvestingOutput follows the natural light. The more daylight, the less LED light, and the more money saved.

PIR / microwave sensingNo more lighting empty rooms. Fittings dim and switch off when nobody is there.

Occupancy / vacancy modesOccupancy switches on as you enter and off as you leave. Vacancy needs a manual on, but still switches off itself.

GroupingGroup fittings for one-touch settings, scenes and schedules. Any sensor in the group lights the room.

High / low end trimSet the minimum and maximum output of each fitting to stop wasted light.

Tunable whiteColour and brightness from 3000K to 6500K, from the app or a wall controller.

Luminance thresholdFittings stay off when there's already enough light, even if movement is detected.

ZoningStructure the system by floor, area or room, with groups inside each zone for their own settings.

Individual controlAdjust a single fitting even when it's grouped. The last setting used takes priority.

SchedulesLighting that works around the day, such as raising the level automatically for evening cleaning.

Scene controlDefine scenes and switch between them at the press of a single button.

Cyber securityMulti-layer encryption and three-tier permissions protect the building's data.

InteroperabilityDeveloped on the SIG Mesh protocol, with robust third-party device integration.

Works locallyDay-to-day control, sensing, daylight, scenes, schedules and wall switches all run on the local mesh.

Add the cloud through a gatewayOptional

Remote accessManage the site remotely, with fault visibility and a layout-based cloud platform.

Energy monitoringHigh-precision energy reporting by zone and by time.

Heat mapSee activity, occupancy and sensor patterns across the building layout.

Occupancy insightUnderstand how spaces are really used, to make better decisions about the building.

The LumiSmart app

Plan off-site. Finish on-site. Fine-tune any time.

Commissioning is where wireless control earns its keep. The app takes you from powered fittings to a working control strategy without the project revolving around a controls engineer.

Add devicesBring luminaires, sensors and switches into the network.

Build zonesCreate areas, groups, scenes and schedules around the space.

Test and optimiseCheck each area, then fine-tune to suit the real building.

Hand overLeave the client a system that can keep adapting.

Retrofit

Make an existing building smarter. Without starting again.

Moving to intelligent control used to mean new control cabling, disruption and a complicated commission. With LumiSmart the control layer is wireless, so the upgrade is about the fittings, sensors and set-up, not a new network.

Less disruptionNo dedicated control cabling through the building.

Practical upgradesSuits occupied and operational buildings where downtime matters.

Point by pointUpgrade the lighting, then build the control strategy in commissioning.

Future flexibilityChange zones and behaviours later without rewiring.

One platform. Different environments.

Designed around the building

CommercialResponsive workplaces, meeting rooms and shared spaces that balance energy, comfort and flexibility.

IndustrialLong hours, variable occupancy and large areas make automatic control especially valuable.

EducationClassrooms, corridors and shared areas with simple automatic behaviours and adaptable zones.

RetailThe right lighting for the shop floor, back of house and support spaces.

Warehouse and logisticsOccupancy, daylight and zoning stop large areas being lit for no one.

RefurbishmentIntelligent control where a new wired control network would be too disruptive.

One project. One lighting partner.
