To bridge that gap between low cost , easy to install , adjust and maintain stand alone controls and sophisticated but expensive Building Management Systems ( BMS ) and Lighting Control Systems ( LCS ) systems , Danlers has launched a new range of highly innovative and cost effective ControlZAPP programmable energy saving stand alone products . Featuring Bluetooth ‘ Smart ’ communication ( Android 4.3 or later ), ControlZAPP can be used to remotely set up , adjust or override settings such as passive infrared ( PIR ) occupancy detection , time lags , daylight response ( lux threshold ) etc into a pre-determined real time schedule . Simply download the free ControlZAPP App from the Danlers website onto a mobile or tablet with Bluetooth ‘ Smart ’ capability , then any ControlZAPP enabled product can be easily confi gured .
This unique combination of a stand alone energy saving control with real time scheduling can increase energy saving in line with how a controlled space is used hourly , daily , weekly and yearly . ControlZAPP also has the fl exibility to schedule multiple scenarios from offi ce / factory opening periods to weekend working times , bank holidays and holiday shut down periods .
