Remote lighting control modem

Controlling furniture lighting remotely and reducing energy consumption

The remote management system SOBYWATT enables to programme and remotely control the lighting on an advertising display, whilst optimising its energy consumption. Switching the lights on and off can be calculated automatically based on the sunrise and sunset, with the option to schedule power cuts in the middle of the night.

Thanks to its connection Mobile phones and GPS, SOBYWATT does not require any clock settings and automatically switches between summer and winter time. The timings can be changed remotely, via Via text message or via a management platform, on a piece of furniture or across an entire collection.

Its programming also allows you to manage exceptional power cuts or Ecowatt alerts, in order to quickly adapt the lighting to the needs of the electricity grid and to energy-saving requirements.

• Astronomy programme: switched on at sunset and off at sunrise, with the times recalculated daily based on the location.
• Energy efficiency and Ecowatt alerts: programmable midnight power cuts and priority emergency programmes in the event of an alert.
• Remote control: Changing a timetable across the entire fleet, via text message or via the platform, without the need for on-site intervention.
• No time deviation: Synchronisation via GPS or an NTP server, and automatic switching between summer and winter time — no clock adjustment required.
• Easy integration: Mounting on a 35 mm DIN rail or by screw fixing, with plug-in connectors supplied for the input and output.
• Open architecture: The MQTT protocol and data format are provided for integration with your platform, or you can use the NOVAL cloud service.
