Tridonic Collaborates with Enlighted on First IoT-Ready Compliant Driver

Dornbirn, Austria, April 19, 2018 - Tridonic today announced the first LED driver compliant with the IoT-ReadyTM standard and integrated 2% energy metering accuracy compliant with the DesignLights Consortium® (DLC®) Guidelines. By collaborating with Enlighted, the leading provider of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions for commercial buildings, the driver was created on draft specifications developed by the IoT-Ready AllianceTM. The result is the first commercially-available IoT-Ready Profile 1 compliant driver. The IoT-Ready standard is protocol, device and sensor independent, which enables the new IoT-Ready driver to work with any smart sensor and protocol, such as THREAD, ZigBee, Bluetooth, etc., to enable various IoT and smart lighting applications.

Tridonic will be showcasing the first IoT-Ready driver at Lightfair International in Chicago, Ill., from May 8-10, 2018, in booth #233 (IoT Pavilion) interacting with several systems including Enlighted's IoT Solution for smart buildings, QDIS Surveillance System, Tridonic's net4more IP-based Lighting Platform and Tridonic's BasicDIM Wireless System.

Additional IoT-Ready products will be demonstrated at the Enlighted booth #412 (Intelligent Lighting Pavilion).

Along with showcasing the new IoT-Ready drivers, Tridonic will be providing updates and progress on its popular net4more platform. Also, for installations that simply need dimming and scene programming but no diagnostics or cloud-based applications, Tridonic will be demonstrating its BasicDIM Wireless System, which is a Bluetooth-based lighting control system that works directly with a phone. It's suitable for smaller retail installations and other similarly-sized venues, as well as retrofit solutions that want light energy management and control capability, etc. For members of the media that would like to schedule an interview with Tridonic, please contact Angie Kellen, akellen@openskypr.com.

Alliances
Last year, to address the U.S. market, Tridonic co-founded with Enlighted the IoT-Ready Alliance. The IoT-ReadyAlliance is an industry organization working to make it easy for all LED lighting fixtures and the buildings they are installed to be made "smart' by simply plugging in a compatible IoT sensor. Enlighted and Tridonic are working together with industry-leading organizations to establish the IoT-Ready standard.

In addition, Tridonic has been working to further evolve the Digital Addressable Lighting Interface (DALI) protocol for the European marketplace and is an active participant in the Digital Illumination Interface Alliance (DIIA), an open, global consortium of lighting companies that aims to grow the market for lighting-control solutions based on DALI technology.
