Wireless Street Lamp Control...

Another interesting technique of our control system, Intelligent Lighting System for cities based on Tecomat Foxtrot control system and RF technology.
This system aims to achieve effectiveness in control and monitoring lighting in cities at multilevel, by providing full control and monitoring features on levels (city, block, street or single lamppost).

Also we ensure durability and stability of lighting in city by managing maintenance and expansion of the system, where we provide integrated software package responsible for all needed control and archiving functions, next we will explorer details and options related this system.

System features...

- Save energy by determine amount of needed light
- Covering wide areas by RF technology and repeating in each point
- Real time fault monitoring for each lamppost
- Improve effectiveness and planning
- Different options in control scenarios (on/off, diming, according to sunlight, according to time table ..)
- Central management for all city at multi levels up to single lamppost
- Maintenance operations management 
- Archiving control and maintenance operations

 

Hardware Specifications...

- To get RFox2 network we should use SC-1111 module, which is will be as master of this network, this module accept 64 RF modules as slaves controlled by it.
- The SC-1111 includes a radio module operating in the 868 MHz band. The operation of the module is realized by the RFox2Lib library available in the Mosaic development environment.
- The Foxtrot central units allow up to 6 x SC-1111 system communication modules to be connected to the CH5-CH10 channels.
- For city lighting solution R-SL-0201L-A  RF module is selected for controlling with lamppost.
- Each R-SL-0201L-A  module  can control with one lamppost by both relay output and PWM (0 - 100%) signal.
- Each R-SL-0201L-A  module will work as repeater for RF signal for other near modules, and via this principle we will have Mesh topology.
- Each lamppost contains LED light and high suitable LED driver which is IP67 protection  level.

 

Software Specifications...

- Several control styles on/off and diming for each lamppost
- Several control scenarios: Manual, Auto and according to daily time schedule
- Organize control orders according to multi levels (zone, street or single lamppost)
- Monitoring fault statuses for light devices and control modules
- Friendly control interfaces with map view related city or regions
- Interfacing with MySQL Relational Database via Reliance SCADA and utilizing from all functions available in database for data manipulation
- Logging and archiving all control operations with full details related
- Logging and advanced archiving all fault statuses, also generate related reports
- Logging and archiving maintenance and installation of new lampposts operations (date, type, lamppost, reason, cost, responsible company .....)
- Different reports related control operations, system status (up to each lamppost), faults, maintenance ......
- Interfacing with IP CCTV system via Digifort Surveillance System and by using ONVIF and HTTP protocols
- Showing video streams from several IP cameras simultaneously
- Utilizing PTZ functions in SCADA interfaces
