Examples of use:

1. For example, you can program the CCT adjustable LED panels to light up in the morning in steps from dim to bright with a light tone of cold daylight. In the evening, you can program the lights to change the hue of the light and enjoy the warm light in an atmospheric way.
2. In the morning, the lights in the kitchen and hallway turn on at 07.00 and turn off automatically, for example at 9.00, when everyone has left for work/school.
3. The lights in the children's room come on at 18.00 and go out at bedtime... At the same time, they may slowly dim.
4. Outdoor lights come on at a certain time and go out in the morning (dimmer switch replacement)

The VaLO USB CONBEE II stick is compatible with all the Zigbee receivers in the VaLO series, which you will also need to enable the system to detect the lights you want to control. You can also use wireless Zigbee wall buttons and remotes to control lights.

The USB Zigbee box has a range of 30m, but reinforced concrete is a challenge between layers (RF does not penetrate the steel grid), of course one Zigbee device on the way will pass on the data and return information about the status of the luminaire (dimming level, CCT, etc..)

What is Zigbee?

Zigbee is a wireless RF system using MESH technology, where each device is both a receiver and a transmitter, ensuring that commands get through even in large areas. Zigbee devices can be freely interconnected between different manufacturers. This device supports the latest ZIGBEE 3.0 protocol.

With LedStore's VaLO Zigbee wireless lighting control, you can control your lighting either with wall-mounted wireless buttons or with your Android/iOS device such as a tablet or phone. You can control the lighting of your entire home wirelessly if you wish, but you can also control individual lights.
Zigbee is the only complete IoT (Internet of Things) solution - from a mesh network to a universal standard that allows smart devices to talk to each other. Thanks to the dedicated mesh network created by the devices, the message always reaches its destination, as each device is a receiver and a transmitter.

Zigbee is a standardised system to which you can connect any device in the Zigbee alliance and the certified product will seamlessly communicate with other devices connected to the network. The alliance includes Samsung, Philips, Google, Apple, IKEA, Amazon, Panasonic and Somfy.
Zigbee products are already in millions of homes around the world. Our devices support the latest Zigbee 3.0 standard and are backwards compatible.
