Bluetooth® Mesh Zhaga outdoor lighting controller
Product Overview
DCobi-BMZG is highly affordable and provides the basis for an advanced energy-efficient lighting control solution that help businesses and institutions reducing their energy consumption and shortening their ROI.
DCobi-BMZG has a built-in light sensor for photocell operation, a motion sensor input for dynamic lighting and can run onboard lighting schedules with dimming profiles.
DCobi-BMZG is designed to make the installation and the operation of an outdoor lighting network simpler and faster than ever before, with no lighting control expertise required, and is commissioned with an intuitive mobile app, which can be downloaded from Apple Store. Device firmware can be updated over-the-air to the latest revision.
DCobi-BMZG is extremely robust, reliable, secure and has an impressive wireless outdoor range that is extended as more lighting controllers are introduced in the mesh, acting as repeaters. There is no need for an external gateway device, as the mesh forms automatically an intelligent wireless communication network, making it an ideal solution from a single luminaire up to a full lighting control system with hundreds of devices.
DCobi-BMZG is based on the globally interoperable Bluetooth® SIG Mesh standard, and will work with qualified Bluetooth® mesh devices from other vendors, enabling increased functionalities in your lighting control network.
