Summary

This is the first 2.X.X firmware that no longer needs to be stored in the smartphone memory but is available in-app (Glamox Wireless ZigBee 1.10 and later). Updating firmware from 1.X.X to 2.X.X requires switches to be recommissioned.

Highlights

Fixes:

• Minor bug fixes for improved communication. No visible changes in the app.

Summary

This is the first 2.X.X firmware that no longer needs to be stored in the smartphone memory but is available in-app (Glamox Wireless ZigBee 1.10 and later). Updating firmware from 1.X.X to 2.X.X requires switches to be recommissioned.

Highlights

News:

• Large networks - the possibility to create groups with up to 120 devices each was done.

• The sensor operation before commissioning was set to daylight control and motion detection by default.

• Speed improvements for grouping of lights and switch commissioning were done.

• Availability of D4I driver data in the Zigbee interface was added.

• The possibility of custom product naming in the app was added.

Fixes:

• The problem with unpredictable light behaviour, while using a gateway with an automation profile and the “Circadian rhythm” option switched off, was solved.

• The problem of removing individual lights from daylight areas, which was previously impossible, was solved.

Summary

This release focuses on improvements regarding motion control and daylight harvesting.

Highlights

News:

• The motion-based control was improved by adding the function for zone-based occupancy.

• The reliability of occupancy timers were improved.

• Identification was improved by changing the naming of the sensors for the unique.

• Support for the circadian rhythm was added.

  • A peripheral Ubisys gateway can be commissioned in the Wireless ZigBee system on which a lighting profile is set. The lights controlled by the gateway change CCT and intensity during the day.

  • On the gateway, a default profile with warm white light in the morning and evening and colder light at midday can be loaded. But customised profiles can be set as well.

• Support for the daylight harvesting function in the Manual ON/OFF mode was added.

Fixes:

• The problem with Auto ON/Auto OFF mode was fixed. Using a button to turn off the light is now not interrupting Auto ON function.

• The unwanted behavior of two separate switches added to different zones was fixed.

Summary

This release focuses on providing tunable white and fixing problems.

Highlights

News:

• Support for stand-alone Tunable White was added.

  • In a system with Tunable White drivers and LED modules the CCT of the light can be configured in the app.

  • With wireless switches, the CCT can be tuned similar to dimming, and scenes with different CCT can be programmed.

• The daylight harvesting function was improved. Daylight is now always capped to Presence On-level in all use cases.

• The Maintenance mode was improved. Now in this mode, devices can be reset when the user loses access to their own design, e.g. when their smartphone is lost or broken.

Fixes:

• Occupancy sensing per zone was added. Previously was possible only per group.

• The problem with devices working incorrectly when group occupancy sharing is disabled on a single device was fixed.

Summary

This release focuses on improving the daylight harvesting function and fixing problems.

Highlights

News:

• Daylight-dependent light regulation was improved.

  • In the previous firmware version (1.0.5), when DDR is enabled the light goes to approximately 500 lx in a typical office situation. With 1.1.11, when DDR is enabled the lights go to “On level Presence” times 500 lx (i.e. 80% x 500 lx results in 400 lx target level).

  • In addition, calibration can be manually initiated and then the lights go to On level Presence times the maximum light output of the luminaire (given by the operating current).

• The possibility of commissioning an Ubisys gateway to enable the upgrade of firmware of all devices in a group was added.

• Extended support for switches was provided.

Fixes:

• When occupancy sharing is disabled the sensors of a group still do not work standalone: all lights of the group still go to On-Presence level when occupancy is detected. Only granular dimming does not occur.

• When daylight-based control is enabled, the following limitations apply:

  • The calibration routine for daylight regulation takes longer (about 7 minutes) than with higher firmware versions. For luminaires, where the calibration fails due to too little light reflections from dark surfaces (e.g., a dark grey carpet) in the field of view of the daylight sensor, the luminaire goes to maximum light output. In contrast to higher firmware versions the light level is not capped at the On level Presence. If this results in luminaires with too high light output, we recommend disabling daylight regulation of these luminaires.

  • In case daylight control is enabled, a double press of Switch ON action (with wireless switch) is needed for lights to go to On level Presence. The 1st button press brings the lights to Background light level; a subsequent 2nd button press will bring the lights to On level Presence as expected.

  • Two occupancy triggers are needed for the lights to go to On level Presence. In case people enter a room the luminaire that triggers occupancy first goes to background light level only while the other luminaires go to On level Presence when they trigger presence too. Within some minutes the light of the first luminaire slowly increases to On level Presence.
