Electronic Lighting, Inc. Announces Participation in CellNet Data Systems Application Partners Program
Electronic Lighting Inc. (ELI), one of the nation's leaders in the design and manufacture of controllable fluorescent lighting systems, has become the first lighting manufacturer to participate in CellNet Data System, Inc.s (NASDAQ: CNDS) Application Partners Program (CAPP).
[an error occurred while processing this directive]As a CAPP member, ELI uses CellNet wireless network technology with ELIs controls and dimmable ballasts to give facility managers monitoring, verification and control over the lighting electrical loads. In a project currently underway in Southern California, these collective technologies are being applied in several innovative ways. CellNet endpoint devices collect demand (kW) data from the buildings electrical meters and low-voltage lighting control panels. Additionally, analog signals from ELI photosensors are captured to validate daylight harvesting. CellNet transmits this data to its server on the Web where it is analyzed and displayed graphically to depict lighting system performance. A facility manager can access this data via the Internet to manage energy costs by reducing the electricity demand of lighting systems during peak demand hours.
