The adaptiveSWARM module is a plug-and-play device that provides instant SWARM behavior when combined with the ILD G2 FSL luminaire, creating immediate improvements in office comfort. This sensor module operates using infrared (IR) communication, eliminating the need for a mesh network to establish SWARM interaction between neighboring luminaires. It allows flexible and adaptive positioning of lighting fixtures while maintaining full compliance with DALI-2 standards as an input device. Installation is straightforward, with snap-in compatibility for Zhaga Book 20 interfaces, and the module supports field upgrades and refurbishment, making it an ideal solution for enhancing free-standing luminaires over time. When paired with the ILD G2 FSL, the sensor’s behavior can be adjusted via the companionSUITE software, providing configurable and responsive lighting control.
The adaptiveSWARM module operates by sending out IR signals, which are reflected off the ceiling and received by neighboring luminaires, enabling coordinated SWARM behavior without the need for a conventional wireless mesh network. Once mounted on the luminaire, the module automatically activates the special SWARM control profile in conjunction with the ILD G2 FSL, requiring no additional commissioning for standard operation. If necessary, the SWARM profile can be disabled in the field using the IR Programmer remote control together with the ILD G2 luminaire.
This module is primarily intended for office applications with floor-standing luminaires utilizing IR SWARM technology, although it can also be adapted for other luminaire types, such as suspended fixtures, depending on the specific application. The adaptiveSWARM module is powered via DALI, supporting a voltage range of 12–22.5 V, and has a starting time of ≤1.2 seconds, providing near-instant responsiveness. The module supports a single operating mode (mode 0) and interfaces via DALI-2. Its effective IR communication range extends up to 7.5 meters, enabling interaction across multiple luminaires in a typical office layout.
Constructed from polycarbonate and polyamide, the housing is durable and finished in black, providing a robust and discreet addition to the luminaire. The module is designed for mounting according to Zhaga Book 20 standards, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of luminaires. It is suitable for storage and operation in temperatures ranging from -25 to 60 °C, making it reliable for office environments. The adaptiveSWARM module comes with a five-year guarantee, reflecting its durability and long-term suitability for professional lighting installations.
Overall, the adaptiveSWARM module offers a plug-and-play solution for intelligent luminaire coordination, enhancing occupant comfort and fixture adaptability in office environments while ensuring standards compliance, easy installation, and flexible field upgrades.
