Decentralized Wired Systems
A decentralized system is the traditional wiring system of individual lighting circuits with local control. In the traditional distributed design wiring method, Crestron wall box dimmers can be retrofitted into a project after routine high voltage wiring is completed.
In addition to the traditional high voltage wiring, a low voltage communication wire can be run from the dimmer to the nearest Cresnet® connection (or an RF wireless control can be used). This design offers the end user the familiarity of a traditional control coupled with the power and flexibility of automation. In a distributed design, the user has the ability to operate the lighting in the event of a temporary control system interruption.
