Super MONO controller STX-2195

Description

STX-1793 controller is used for dynamic color (RGB) lighting of the stairs. The backlight is switched on with the subsequent steps, depending on the motion directions: ascending or descending.

The controller is adapted to control the RGB LED strips arranged in stair steps and possibly the staircase handrails.

The controller has three programs of color changing: in the first program each stage is lit with a different color; in second program color at all steps is the same, but changes smoothly when the steps are turned on, lights on and off. The last program is fixed and immutable (there can be selected one of the 7 colors) or will change to another color at every turning on the light of the stairs.

Program No. 1 - Rainbow

Principle of operation - animation of light

Illumination of the stairs takes place in the following order:

When you press the button (eg at the bottom of the stairs), illumination lights up step by step from bottom to top. After lighting up the entire staircase the light is stable for a short period, and then lighting of the staircase goes from the lower to the upper level, sequentially step by step.

Depending on the setting parameters of the controller, the light of the stairs can fade out to zero or to a minimum value (allowing to illuminate the stairs for better presentation, or climb them easily in the dark - without turning on a full light - especially important for children!). When you press the top button, the stairs are lighted from top to bottom and turned off also in the same direction.

In case when another person steps on the stairs, the controller switches on full illumination of stairs and extinguish them after a set period of time.

Example diagram shows the connection of the controller to 20 steps, and two handrails (on both sides of the stairs). Control is via two buttons on the top and bottom of the stairs.

The controller can support up to 20 steps. It can also control lighting of handrail (max. 2). 

Control

Lights can be turned on by pressing directly button on the wall, connected to the controller or by the use of additional sensor (infrared, motion, pressure, etc.) to detect when the person steps on the stairs.

The controller is designed specifically for use with miniature motion sensors. It can be directly connected to the inputs of the controller without additional matching components.

The controller can be operated with low voltage motion sensors or motion detectors for 230V. In this case, they must be used relays separating from the control circuit 230V.

Number of supported points of light (usually it is the amount of stairs) and the number of illuminated handrails, are set at the factory and cannot be changed by the user. To discuss your solution, please contact us.

Other parameters of the controller can be set by the user: backlight level and its color of stairs in the dark, time interval between successive steps lightening (it has an impact on the speed of lightening all of the steps), or the time after which the steps will be faded out. Additionally, user can set up the way of changing color, the brightness and other detailed settings for the driver

Connection

Lights can be turned on by pressing directly button on the wall, connected to the controller or by the use of additional sensor (infrared, motion, pressure, etc.) to detect when the person steps on the stairs.
