Choosing Networked Lighting Control Systems with the DLC Online Tool

Nov 27, 2019

In early December, the DLC will publish an online, filterable Networked Lighting Controls QPL designed to help users customize their QPL view and select systems that work best for specific projects. This new QPL will be published alongside the existing Excel-based QPL so that QPL users have time to learn the new interface and provide feedback on what the DLC can improve.

Features of the new tool will include the ability to switch between list and full tile view, the ability to add and remove columns of information from the view, and the ability to filter systems by criteria such as ease of installation, system scope and application, advanced capabilities, user interface, and more.

You can join DLC for a webinar that will demonstrate how to use the new online filters and views to choose appropriate NLC systems for various types of projects on Wednesday, December 11, 2019 from 1:00-2:00 pm ET.
