Note: The luminaire firmware v2.0.0.2 needs to be used in conjunction with the remote control firmware v1.0.0.2.

Luminaire v2.0.0.1 Version Description:

1. Support LUMOCE luminaire remote control A1

   LUMOCE luminaire remote control A1 can be used to control all lighting effects of the luminaire , switch the gesture sensor of the luminaire , and upgrade the firmware of the luminaire.

2. Support synchronous lighting status between multiple luminaires

   Multiple lumianires can be networked, and after networking as a group, whether using gesture dimming or remote control dimming, the luminaires in the same network group will synchronize the dimming gradient process and results.

3. Support saving lighting state

   The luminaire will save the lighting state 15 seconds before power off, in order to restore the lighting state after power on again.

4. Support overdrive state

   ①. Normal state: The maximum brightness of both the upper and lower lighting is limited to 100%.

   ②. Overdrive state: The maximum brightness of one lighting will increase from 100% to 150%, which is the overdrive channel. The brightness of the another lighting will be limited to 10%, which is the normal channel.

   ③. Entering overdrive state: In the normal state, when the brightness of one lighting is 10% and the other lighting brightness is 100%, by using the linkage dimming gesture, or the linkage dimming button on the remote control, to increase the brightness of the 100% side of lighting, the maximum limit of this channel's brightness will be raised from 100% to 150% to enter the overdrive state.

   ④. Exiting overdrive state: In overdrive state, when the brightness of one lighting is 10% and the other lighting is 101%, by using the linked dimming gesture, or the linked dimming button on the remote control, to reduce the brightness of the 101% side of lighting, the maximum limit of this channel's brightness will be reduced from 150% to 100% to exit the overdrive state.

   ⑤. Only through the linkage dimming gesture can make the luminaire enter or exit the overdrive state by gesture control on luminaire.

   ⑥. The luminaire will not save any lighting states in overdrive state. When the power is turned off and the light is turned on again, the luminaire will restore the last saved lighting state 15 seconds before entering the overdrive state.

5. Optimize dimming algorithm

   5.1 Color temperature compensation mechanism

         ①. In the overdrive state, use color temperature compensation mechanism to increase the brightness of the overdrive channel, rather than directly increasing the power of the LEDs. By using color temperature compensation algorithm, ensure the safe increase of brightness in the overdrive channel within the power range of LEDs.

         ②. In the overdrive state, the global CCT adjustment range will be reduced. Based on the different brightness, the luminaire will calculate the global CCT adjustment range in real time according to the color temperature compensation mechanism.

   5.2 Power compensation mechanism

         Due to the characteristics of LEDs, the brightness varies slightly at different color temperatures. When adjusting the color temperature, the luminaire will automatically operate a power compensation mechanism to ensure that the brightness of the LEDs remains consistent at different color temperatures.

   5.3 PWM frequency and resolution optimization

         ①. High frequency PWM dimming: optimizing the PWM frequency to an ultra-high frequency of about 20kHz, combined with an integrated inductor, can avoid slight flicker at low brightness and eliminate high-frequency whistling noise at low brightness.

         ②. Professional PWM resolution: increasing the PWM resolution to 4096 levels of 12 bits can provide delicate and smooth dimming effects, pushing the dimming accuracy to professional level.

6. Luminaire reset and pairing enable

   In the state when both the upper and lower lightings are turned on, within 5 seconds, hold your hand keeping in C-shape and swing twice on the upper and lower sensing surfaces to turn off and then turn on both the upper and lower lightings at the same time. The lightings flash 3 times, the luminaire clears existing pairing information, restarts and resets the lighting state, and enters the pairing state, waiting for other luminaires or the remote control to pair.

   

   

   ①. When the luminaire enables pairing, there is a 30 seconds pairing time window. Please complete the pairing within this period.

   ②. When successful pairing, the light flashes once to indicate successful pairing.

   ③. The luminaire can pair with either the remote control or orther luminaires. The control system supports multi-luminaire networking, single-luminaire-single-remote networking, multi-luminaire-single-remote networking, single-luminaire-multi-remote networking, and multi-luminaire-multi-remote networking.

Remote Control v1.0.0.2 Version Description:

Switch lighting scenes by remote control is already available.

Add remote control commands: short press the firmware upgrade button, short press the pairing button, and short press the sensor switch button to support the switching of lighting scenes on the luminaire.

The lightings flash 3 times, the luminaire clears existing pairing information, restarts and resets the lighting state, and enters the pairing state, waiting for other luminaires or the remote control to pair.

   1.2 Networking group

         ①. There is a 30 second pairing time for both the remote control and the luminaire in pairing state, during which successfully paired devices will automatically form the same network.

         ②. If different network groups are required, only devices that need to form the same network should be paired in one pairing time, and devices of other networks should be paired after 30 seconds.

         ③. The remote control can only pair with luminaire. The control system supports multi-luminaire networking, single-luminaire-single-remote networking, multi-luminaire-single-remote networking, single-luminaire-multi-remote networking, and multi-luminaire-multi-remote networking.
