Wireless Area Controller

Overview

The Wireless Area Controller (WAC) is the main component of the

WaveLinx Wireless Controlled Lighting (WCL) system. WaveLinx

eliminates the cost and complexity of typical wireless control

system commissioning while providing a flexible and reconfigurable

topology for on the fly space adjustments. The WaveLinx system

meets modern code and utility requirements, delivers energy and

cost savings, while enabling buildings to become smart buildings.

The WAC coordinates between the WaveLinx smart and

connected Mobile App and various WaveLinx devices to create

communications and a building ecosystem that provides out of the

box functionality and leverages Eaton's patent pending automatic

code commissioning features. Using standard-based wireless mesh

compliant topology the WAC communicates to various WaveLinx

standard-based devices to provide area, lighting zone configuration,

monitoring, and control.

The WAC provides centralized coordination of multiple areas for

partial ON/partial OFF scheduling, demand response, lighting,

occupancy and daylight settings and scene control. A single WAC

can be connected to the building Local Area Network (LAN) to

coordinate up to 16 areas, or multiple WAC’s can exist on a building

LAN to scale the system to hundreds of areas all accessible for

setup, configuration and control through the WaveLinx Mobile App.

Features

Easily installed on ceiling, wall, shelf, rack, or DIN rail

Powered via Power over Ethernet (PoE - IEEE 802.3af)

Controls up to 200 WaveLinx devices (light fixtures, relay

switchpacks, wallstations, sensors, etc.)

Supports up to 16 areas with multiple lighting zones, occupancy

sets, and daylight sets per area

Drag and drop programming of lighting zones and areas via

WaveLinx Mobile App

Connects to building LAN for access to BMS and OpenADR

interfaces

Certified to Underwriters Laboratories Cybersecurity Standard

for Network-Connectable Devices

Wireless Area Controller May 2018 System Architecture This diagram shows the main components of the WaveLinx Wireless Connected Lighting (WCL) system. The WaveLinx system communicates using wireless mesh technology based on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard. A PoE LAN connection for each Wireless Area Controller (WAC) is required for power and data access to the building wireless network. System setup is achieved through a simple mobile application via wireless communication to the system.
