Raise your Alven to a standing position with its
foot on the floor. Insert the power cable (F), first
to your Alven and then to the wall outlet.

connected the power button green LED starts
flashing. When the the power button green LED
stops flashing again your Alven is ready to use.
It will take up to 2 minutes for your Alven to be
ready for use once the power cord has been con-
nected.
Alven can be connected to a network using wifi
or an ethernet cable (not provided).
The flexible cable or cord may be specially pre-
pared and only available from the manufactu-
rer or his service agent.

net (PoE) connection. This device is not PoE

Welcome to the world of BioCentric Lighting™
BrainLit Alven™ is the world’s first personal, connected and dynamic
BioCentric Lighting™ system in a free-standing LED luminaire. It is a
multi-user system and can also be connected to the BrainLit cloud.
The AutoLit recipe of BrainLit Alven™ provides optimal light conditions
for aligning your circadian rhythm. The light conditions can be further
adjusted through the BrainLit app. With the app, you can choose e.g. the
“Boost” scene to receive a light shower for extra energy.

AutoLit
The AutoLit recipe is the default setting that best
helps you maintain your circadian rhythm. The
circadian rhythm is referred to as our ”biological
clock” that regulates our well-being, alertness
and sleep. To maintain your normal circadian
rhythm you should use AutoLit without dim-
ming the light intensity as often as possible.
If you adjust the brightness of BrainLit Alven
using the (+) or (-) buttons, you will exit AutoLit
and the light will remain at a static light intensity
until you turn BrainLit Alven off and back on. It
may take a few days for your eyes to adapt to
the brightness of your BrainLit Alven™.
Boost
Boost increases your alertness and stimulates
your cortisol levels, giving you a refreshing effect.
Recommended usage is a 20 minutes or shorter
”light shower” preferably during the first half of
the day (08.00-14.00).
Usage of Boost at night may disturb your natural
circadian rhythm. To maintain your natural circa-
dian rhythm, you should use AutoLit without
dimming the light intensity as often as possible.
Relax
Relax creates a natural light environment that
feels more neutral to your eyes but does not
change dynamically and therefore has less im-
pact on your circadian rhythm. Recommended
usage is for shorter time periods after 14.00.
To maintain your circadian rhythm you should
use AutoLit without dimming the light intensity
as often as possible.
