To ensure an efficient lighting control as well as a consistent level of brightness, light sensors and dimmers are used. Presence detectors, occupation schedules and brightness sensors avoid unnecessary burning time. Even ventilation and heating is controlled centrally. For events, lighting scenes can be triggered by connecting the audiovisual equipment with the lighting control. For creating the scenes, the visualization can be used. The NETx Software is responsible for the central visualization, which allows even remote control.
