Columbia, MD – Autani, LLC, a proven leader in building controls and IoT, expands the scope of its EnergyCenter platform by adding wireless, direct, real-time controls of outdoor fixtures using the Sunrise Technologies WALI (Wireless Area Lighting Interface) in the place of a NEMA socket mounted photocell. In partnership with Sunrise Technologies, Inc., a leading producer of accurate, reliable, energy-efficient and innovative lighting control products, EnergyCenter allows customers to customize an astronomical clock operation and implement advanced scheduling of dimming features throughout their premise. Now, lights in the building and throughout the facility at large can be zoned geographically through EnergyCenter’s centralized manager. 

“By expanding EnergyCenter’s wireless capabilities to include the Sun-Tech WALI outdoor fixture controller, we have the ability to offer outdoor centralized lighting controls that can be customized based on season and premise layout throughout the year,” said Scott Metker, Chief Operating Officer for Autani. “For example, users will be able to adjust their light settings and timers around holidays, seasons, and special events without having to touch a single fixture. EnergyCenter’s capability goes beyond a traditional photocell by centralizing the building’s controls in a comprehensive, strategic platform and providing greater autonomy to our customers.”
