Initiate an INSTEON Signal when an LED or an Alternative Light Source is Sensed
Posted on | July 7, 2009 | Comments Off
Use the I/O Linc – INSTEON LED and Light Detector Probe Kit to activate a scene in your home theater that will turn on (or off) INSTEON controlled lights and/or appliances when an LED or other light source has been sensed. This kit enhances your INSTEON network by using a Light Detector Probe to sense when an LED, incandescent or fluorescent light is turned on. The probe can be placed over an LED power indicator on an A/V component or other electronic device. Alternatively the probe can be placed near an incandescent or fluorescent light source. When an LED or alternative light source is detected, an INSTEON signal will be sent to set the ambiance in the room by lowering lighting levels, turning on a ceiling fan and/or activating your HVAC system. You could also use this kit in conjunction with a I/O Linc – INSTEON Remote Chime Alert Kit to monitor the activity of your children at night by receiving a chime notification whenever they are using their TV, A/V components, or when they turn their lights on. This kit can also be use in an area where too much light may be annoying or damaging such as a home theatre room, photo development room, green house or wine cellar so that the appropriate INSTEON responding device could be activated to notify you or prevent damage.
