SC Dimmer Pro A
SC Dimmer Pro is a four-channel driver designed for controlling CCT LED strips.
Description
Section titled “Description”SC Dimmer Pro is a robust controller designed specifically for controlling a large quantity of CCT LED strips that support adjustable white color temperature. It is supplied with preprogrammed Spectoda proprietary firmware, so it is fully compatible with other Spectoda-enabled devices.
SC Dimmer Pro is controlled wirelessly from Spectoda web applications over Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), Wi-Fi local area network (WLAN), or WebSocket connections. Devices automatically form a self-healing and self-managing wireless mesh network, so many luminaires can be controlled from anywhere in the installation. An external gateway module is not strictly required.
SC Dimmer Pro can be connected to 12 V or 24 V LED strips.
