Lytemode System Overview
The Lytemode System is designed to control architectural
lighting by distributing both power and intelligence. The system
provides processing power and control at each respective Master or
Remote Station, eliminating the need for a central processor.
Lytemode Master Stations provide individual control for up to 16
channels, 13 scenes plus “Off”, and adjustable fade times. Multiple
Master Stations may be linked together for control of up to 128
Channels and 13 preset scenes. By combining Lytemode Master
Stations with Lytemode Remote Stations, the system provides
remote access to scenes, Master Raise/Lower control, Multi-room
partition control, or Master Station Lockout. Lytemode Master
Stations are easily programmed using the front panel buttons,
without removing the Master Station from the wall, and without the
need for a computer. Lytemode Master Stations are compatible with
both Lightolier Controls Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor
(IGBT) Dimming Cabinets as well as Silicon Controlled Rectifier
(SCR) Dimming Panels.
Lytemode products are controlled by the Intelligent Lytemode
System (ILS) protocol. All Lytemode control devices must be
connected to the ILS system and given a unique ID (or address) in
order to interact properly. The ID identifies the device on the
network and allows the device to avoid network collisions when
transmitting data.
