In modern smart buildings, lighting systems play a critical role in energy efficiency and occupant comfort. Traditional lighting systems often rely on manual switching or time-based control, leading to unnecessary energy waste and reduced flexibility.
The BLIIOT BA190 BACnet/IP Edge I/O Module provides an intelligent and programmable lighting control solution that integrates seamlessly with existing Building Management Systems (BMS) through the BACnet/IP protocol.
The lighting control system is designed around the BA190 module, which acts as the bridge between field devices and the building network.
AI Inputs: Connect daylight or brightness sensors to measure ambient light levels in real time.
DI Inputs: Receive switch or occupancy signals from wall panels or motion detectors.
DO/Relay Outputs: Control lighting circuits, relays, or dimming drivers.
Ethernet Communication: Communicate with the BMS via BACnet/IP for centralized management and scheduling.
This setup allows flexible automation logic through the built-in web interface, without needing an additional PLC or controller.
In an office or corridor environment, the BA190 module can automatically adjust the lighting level based on daylight intensity or occupancy status.
For instance:
When sunlight is sufficient, the system dims or turns off indoor lighting.
When the area becomes occupied or the light level drops below a threshold, the lights automatically switch on.
At night, a pre-set time schedule activates specific lighting zones for safety and security.
This combination of sensor-driven and schedule-based control ensures both energy efficiency and user comfort.
Seamless Integration: Fully compatible with BACnet/IP building networks and BMS platforms.
Flexible Logic Control: Easily configure automation rules through the web interface — no coding required.
High Reliability: Industrial-grade design with -40°C to +85°C temperature tolerance and 2KV isolation protection.
Remote Maintenance: Built-in BLRAT remote access tool supports remote firmware upgrades and configuration.
Scalable Expansion: Up to 3 I/O expansion slots for adding DI, DO, AI, or AO modules depending on project scale.
