Powerline Solution – Main Info

PLC Solution - Intelligent Lighting Management via Powerline

Description

QULON Fully Intelligent Management System provides Intelligent Lighting Management via Powerline (PLC) that is recommended if radio control is prohibited by state regulations, radio connection is hindered by some physical obstacles that cannot be avoided, or luminaire design forbids installation of radio module (decorative luminaires, hystoric significance).

Key Benefits

  • compatible with any type of lamp
  • simple and fast installation, no additional wiring
  • remote control from the laptop, tablet or cellphone
  • reliable long range solution
  • secure technology with limited interference
  • 1-10V, DALI, PWM connection for electronic ballast/driver interfaces
  • step dimming for electro-magnetic ballasts
  • intuitive user-friendly software
  • unlimited reporting tools
  • easily scalable by adding new modules

Node (Simpline Module)

Mounted into the luminaire. It provides load control (on/off) as well as dimming function of luminaire. It is also compatible with 3rd party motion sensors. PLC interface operates on CENELEC EN 50065-1 standard in 132.5kHz frequency band.

Gateway (Qulon Simpline & Qulon-C)

Qulon Simpline is mounted inside existing lighting cabinet. Connected to the central controller Qulon-C via RS-485 interface (ModBus). Acts as a master to send/receive data to/from PLC modules (slaves). It communicates with the slaves using PLC interface via existing power lines.

Qulon-C is installed into existing lighting cabinet. It controls all electrical equipment in the cabinet- magnetic starters, additional Qulon devices, etc. It also collects all the data from the connected devices (Qulon Simpline, energy meter, etc) via RS-485 interface and then sends it to server via GSM/GPRS/3G mobile network. All the programming of Qulon-C module is done remotely from the software. All created on/off/dimming schedules are stored in it so that connected modules and lights can be controlled without internet connection via Intelligent Lighting Management. Qulon-C can be accessed directly from the software, via SMS or Ethernet cable.

Qulon Software

Powerline system is managed by an operator remotely from a laptop or even on-the-go from a cellphone. Big data is stored on the server so reports may be generated on the click. Qulon web-based database allows detailed analysis of the system performance.
