To some,
the term “central lighting control” means standing in the
middle of a room and clapping. To the designers at CentraLite
the technology is more sophisticated, although the end result
is almost as easy to operate.
CentraLite Systems designs and manufactures the ultimate
luxury item -- home automated lighting systems. Based in
Alabama, CentraLite’s innovative design ideas have made what
was once the strict domain of the wealthy attainable for
everyone building a home.
CentraLite ensures whole-home monitoring remains affordable by
eschewing the traditional, expensive, multiple-computer set
up. Instead, one CentraLite processor is capable of
controlling the entire system.
Reliable integration is at the heart of this system, and
Connect Tech’s
WhiteHEAT 4-port RS-232 hub is the preferred equipment for
CentraLite. Reliable and inexpensive, “the WhiteHEAT enhances
our ability to integrate lighting, audio, HVAC, security and
surveillance,” notes CentraLite’s Steven Kyser.
Reliability was an issue with adapters purchased from another
company in the past, so CentraLite was pleased to find a
quality board along with the first-class support that sets
Connect Tech apart from the competition. “Previous products
have not been adequate for our purposes,” explains Steven.
“The (WhiteHEAT) product works great with the application that
we are using it for. It is nice to find a good product and
professional people to deal with when purchasing equipment to
fit our needs.”
