Hubbell Control Solutions has announced an update to the wiSCAPE Gateway. The wiSCAPE system allows users to manage, monitor and measure wireless outdoor lighting networks. Hubbell Control Solutions leverages a history of innovation to create lighting controls.
The wiSCAPE Gateway manages up to 1,000 wiSCAPE fixture modules, controlling dimming, scheduling and motion detection features. For network management and security, a version of the Gateway is available that operates on Windows 7 Professional Edition. IT administrators can manage it as they do all the PCs on their network.
Another version of the wiSCAPE Gateway is available with BACnet IP built-in support. This allows a building management system BACnet controller to see the gateway as a BACnet device. After pairing, the BMS system can control individual fixture modules, groups of modules and execute scenarios with granularity.
The wiSCAPE Gateway turns stand-alone fixture modules into a secure peer-to-peer, self-organizing and self-healing mesh infrastructure. The wireless distributed control technology adapts to situations for commissioning and operation. No control wiring is required for configuration.
The Gateway also includes the wiSCAPE View software suite. This provides facility managers real-time access and control over multiple wiSCAPE Gateways and individual fixtures from one location with map and satellite views.
Scalable solutions from Hubbell Control Solutions meet building codes and regulations. wiSCAPE solutions are for a variety of applications including garages, parking lots and “at risk” locations. Control anything from a couple lights in an alley to street lighting across an entire city.
