girdComm NB-IoT NEMA SLC-N-500-NB Smart Light Controller

Overview

NB-IoT is a low-power WAN (LPWAN) communication technology with promising prospects. It has been widely used in various fields of the Internet of Things. It can be seen that the NB-IoT communication module occupies an important position in the Internet of Things industry.
NB-IoT NEMA Smart Light Controller (SLC) as shown in Fig. 1 is a remote- control device for HID or LED luminaires equipped with an ANSI C136.41 NEMA receptacle. The controller connects with a cellular NB-IoT network directly. This in turn connects with the remote management platform for management and control as shown in Fig. 2. The controller is exceptionally suitable for various terrains and environments and comes with a built-in tilt sensor and Global Positioning System (GPS).

Management Platform

• Built-in standard NB-IoT communication module to realize long-distance transmission, low-power operation, large-capacity networking, and high-reliability communication
• Connects to supporting cellular networks and supports remote control such as on/off, dimming, status monitoring of the streetlight, etc.
• Built-in electric energy metering chip with 1%accuracy
• Built-in with tilt sensor to detect the uprightness of lamp post
• Built-in GPS positioning chip for auto-mapping of streetlight positioning
• Built-in light sensor for environment-based turning on/off of streetlights based on the brightness level
• Built-in RTC for onboard scheduled dimming
• Monitored parameters include voltage, power, current, energy consumption, power factor, temperature, and frequency, etc.
• Option for the built-in real-time clock can store device energy consumption data per day
• Service life- > 5 years

Features

• NEMA interface, compatible with standard ANSI C136.41

Note:

• State before shutdown: Working state of the product when no alarm is generated, if the product fails at 50% dimming, it will be restored to this state after the failure is removed.
• Restart: The product needs to be powered off and then powered on again.
• Execution actions: All execution within 4 seconds

FCC Radiation Exposure Statement

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body.

FCC Warning

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
NOTE 1 : This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

NOTE 2: Any changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
