Lighting That Works with You: Circadian Rhythm & Ledalite NatureConnect
NatureConnect isn’t just smart lighting—it’s a fully functional system that doesn’t require commissioning. Out of the box, the NatureConnect link automatically creates the right light settings and works seamlessly with presence sensors and user interfaces. It also ensures energy efficiency by limiting the power usage of each luminaire to the energy code rated power for compliance. For larger installations, NatureConnect can integrate with external lighting control systems. It’s compatible with DALI or 0-10V (e.g., Dynalite) and supports a dual 0-10V input for brightness control, daylight regulation, scene setting, or turning the system off. The NatureConnect link not only addresses the luminaires but also serves as both content generator and power budget enforcer.
