WELCOME TO CREE SMARTCAST TECHNOLOGY
WELCOME TO CREE SMARTCAST
For years, bringing smart control to the lighting environment meant two sets of wires: one for power, one for
control. That's two trips up the ladder, two wiring diagrams and two times the complexity. Even with newer
wireless control technologies, installers still have to contend with extra equipment and complicated
commissioning procedures.
Cree SmartCast Technology delivers essential lighting control without the extra design, installation and setup
®
time typical of traditional lighting control systems. With SmartCast Technology, installers simply wire the
fixtures for power and commission the entire system with the touch of one button.
This guide will take you through the deployment of SmartCast Technology. You'll see how easy it is to design,
install, and commission a code-compliant lighting system with OneButton™ Setup and SmartCast Technology.
WHAT IS CREE SMARTCAST TECHNOLOGY?
WHAT IS CREE SMARTCAST
Instead of wires, SmartCast Technology uses a network of wireless radio signals (IEEE 802.15.4) to link
fixtures, sensors and controls into a connected and responsive lighting system,. Sensors are built directly into
the fixtures, and whole system comes to life and connects itself together with one touch of the SmartCast
Technology commissioning tool.

incorporate integrated ambient light
and motion sensors to achieve
energy savings. Embedded sensors
in each luminaire eliminate the need
for up-front sensor layout design and
allow for reliable detection of
occupants and ambient light.
SmartCast Technology luminaire

intelligent groupings with OneButton
Setup. The result is smart lighting
that meets existing and emerging
building codes and installs and sets
up easier than comparable lighting
