IRIO/TWS has 4 ON/OFF lighting control circuits for on/off lighting control using Two Way Switches and 2 x 0-10V outputs for dimming. Each Lighting circuit consist of a Latching Relay to switch the light on/off and an internal Current Sensor to sense the state of the light when connected to a two way switch. Latching Relays remain at the last Open/Close state without requiring current in the relay coil, and saves energy.
The advantage of this method of control is the ability of the mechanical two way switch to control the light even if the Comfort or IRIO is not working, as conventional Electrical/switch wiring is used.
The sensitivity of the current sensor can be set to High Sensitivity (for energy efficient lights like LED bulbs) or Low sensitivity for incandescent or halogen bulbs) in order to cater for all types of lights.
