Lighting Xpert Insight
The Wireless Area Controller (WAC) is the central communications
coordinator for the WaveLinx system. A Wireless Area Controller
can coordinate communication to up to 200 (100 best practice)
devices within its wireless range. The Wireless Area Controller
can operate as a standalone coordinator, or may be connected to
a building network with other Wireless Area Controllers to meet
larger building requirements. Installed as a standalone system, the
Wireless Area Controller uses its internal wireless Wi-Fi access point
to communicate to the WaveLinx Mobile Application installed on a
user provided iOS or Android smart phone or tablet. Installed in an
Ethernet connected system or connected to the building network
by Wi-Fi, each Wireless Area Controller operates independently
for its paired devices, using the connected building network to
communicate to the WaveLinx Mobile Application.
Use the WaveLinx Mobile Application to commission the WaveLinx
Wireless Connected Lighting System. Once the system is
operational, use the WaveLinx Mobile Application to personally
control specific areas and zones in the facility, or to change the
automatic code commissioning programmed behavior. The WaveLinx
Mobile Application is available from the App Store or Google Play
and is compatible with devices running on an iOS 11+ or Android 7+
operating system.
