C-Bus

Wouldn't it be lovely if when you came home at night the house lit up with the simple touch of one button?  Or to go to bed at night you didn't spend 15 minutes walking through the house to make sure all the lights were off.  With controlled lighting we can turn your house, into a home.

An Automated Living Solutions Controlled Lighting system gives you the benefits you thought you could only dream of.  Not only is it convenient and simply to use, but it enhances your security, is energy efficient and has a selection of switches that will suit any homes design.

Each switches can be programmed to create an unlimited variety of customized room and whole-house lighting scenes.  We can program one button to dim the lights perfectly for a romantic dinner, whilst another can illuminate the entire house for entertaining. Other buttons can be programmed to light the house when you're out for the evening, or as you wish for the times when you are at home.

Imagine a "Vacation" mode that is set to your actual lighting patterns and plays them when you are gone. Time clock functions can automatically turn on your landscape lighting at dusk, reduce it at midnight, and turn it off at dawn. An interface with your security system can turn on a pre-set group of lights, or flash others when security is breached. One button can turn on every light in the home for your peace of mind, or turn them all off at once when you go to bed.

ALS brings many benefits to a lighting control system including our design, installation and programming experience. These benefits, combined with listening to your desires, will allow you to gain every possible feature from flexible lighting systems in your new or existing home. We will discuss with you your living habits and suggest lighting scenes that will make your life easier without altering your lifestyle. We work with you to design the system and then place and program the controls. We will follow up with you after you've had a chance to live with the system, to adjust scenes, pathways or other functions as needed, based upon your own experiences.

IS IT CONVENIENT?
A controlled lighting system works with the simple touch of a button.  We program the switches with 'scenes'.  So you might have a 'home scene' where certain lights within the house are on.  Or a 'pool scene' where the outside and pool lights are on.  Or a 'bed scene' so all the lights turn off but the hallway and toilet light are on.  One press and the lighting scene you chose is on.  Press again and they are all off.  That's convenience. 

IS IT ENERGY EFFICIENT?
Energy efficiency is one of the biggest advantages of automating your home.  Instead of having the lights in the lounge at full brightness we can program to dim to only 50%.  Or the night light you leave on for the kids can be on at 25%, still enough to obtain the effect you desire, but not enough to waste electricity. 

WILL THEY MATCH MY DECOR
Not only are the C-Bus switches simple and easy to use they are stylish and elegant as well.  You can choose the style, colour and number of buttons on each switch.  Or you can choose a touchscreen (coloured or monochrome screen), that frames in a variety of different colours.

                                                     C-Touch Colour Touchscreen

  The C-Bus C-TouchTM colour touch screen is the latest in wall mounted, touch sensitive LCD screens. The stylish touch screen can display pages of graphical items. Buttons, sliders and images on the screen all perform programmable functions, simply at the touch of your finger. Control your entire home’s lighting, home theatre, air-conditioning, security, watering system and almost anything else you can imagine.

It can replace large, multiple wall switches and dimmers to add a touch of envious style to any home. In fact, the C-Touch Colour is so sophisticated, you can even personalise the screen with your own colour scheme, photographs or screensavers. So no matter how often you change your décor, your C-Touch Colour can change with you.

                                                                 The Ultimate Smart Switch

One of the biggest problems people find with home automation is the difficulty in remembering which buttons do what. Clipsal have now solved that problem with user friendly Dynamic Labelling TechnologyTM (DLT).

An Australian first, Clipsal’s DLT is available in the C-Bus  SaturnTM and NeoTM wall switches and allows the buttons to be electronically labelled according to your needs. The units have eight function buttons over two pages, a backlight for easy viewing and support up to eight languages, making DLT wall switches simple for anyone to use.  

Intelligent Lighting is just the beginning of Home Automation - ALS can also provide Home Networking, Home Theatres, and Multi Room Audio.
