Which of the below color output strategies is possible with controlled LED
lighting? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔tune color output to produce any color
tune shade of white light to desired CCT
dim to a very warm CCT similar to incandescent dimming
,Which of the below control strategies is enacted using a time clock, which
may be a physical device or more commonly implemented by a lighting
controller? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔scheduling
A control protocol is _____. - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔A set of rules that define the
behavior of components in a control system
Which of the below is NOT an example of a standalone control device? -
🧠ANSWER ✔✔Lighting controller
When it is said, "Lighting controls save energy by ensuring lighting is only
used WHERE it's needed," what control strategy is being referred to? -
🧠ANSWER ✔✔Reducing light level based on daylight level or visual needs
A lighting controller is a ______. - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔A control input device
What is a distinguishing feature of a centralized intelligent lighting control
system? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔The system is programmed and controlled using
software that resides on a central server or the Cloud
Energy consumption, occupancy and potentially other data can be
measured and stored for analysis
,Luminaire/Zone status can be monitored, potentially with alarm notifications
The controls narrative provides ____. - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Sequence of
operations for each control point in a control system
The sequence of operations for a control point defines _____. - 🧠ANSWER
✔✔What the control point does in response to various inputs
Automatic lighting control is ideally suited to _____. - 🧠ANSWER
✔✔Energy management
Control zones may be organized by _____. - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Energy code
requirements
Daylight availability
Lighting schedules
What is a distinguishing feature of a networked control system? -
🧠ANSWER ✔✔Lighting controllers are networked enabling addressable

, When it is said, "Lighting controls save energy by ensuring lighting is only
used WHEN it's needed," what control strategy is being referred to? -
🧠ANSWER ✔✔Automatic shutoff based on occupancy or time of day
Which would be better suited for turning the lights OFF or reducing light
levels in a classroom when it is not occupied? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Switching
Which of the below control strategies is enacted using a light sensor
(photosensor)? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Occupancy sensing
Which would be better suited for turning lights OFF in certain areas or
reducing light levels in an occupied open office? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔dimming
A lighting control zone is _____. - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔One or more light sources
simultaneously controlled by a single control output
Occupancy sensors may be specified as _____ devices. - 🧠ANSWER
✔✔full - ON
Occupancy sensors save energy by turning OFF the lights when the space
is _____. - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔unoccupied
Line-voltage occupancy sensors do not require a power pack, which makes
them suitable for applications where there is no plenum or junction boxes
