Interoperability
The nDTC operates uniquely as a scheduling device for stand-alone lighting control zone applications.

nLight Gateway and Fresco
When connected to a network device, i.e. ECLYPSE control or FRESCO, the nDTC relinquishes all scheduling
functions and displays a message per
Figure 1
.
SensorView
When connected to SensorView via an nComm kit, users can view and edit device level settings, device health, as
well as update nDTC firmware. Users cannot create, review or modify the nDTC and its schedules through SensorView.
nIO BT and nConfig
Though the nConfig mobile app can be connected to the nLight network through a nIO BT to allow users the ability
to view and program all devices in the network, the nDTC is however not discoverable.
Schedules
Schedules in the nDTC operate using the event-based scheduling paradigm, where each schedule has Start and an
End Trigger. These events are time-based that can run by time of the day as well as astronomical time (sunrise/sunset).
All schedules are required to have a Start Trigger, with a start time and action. End Triggers are not required to be
entered, however, will automatically be interpreted as an End Trigger with an end time of 11:59 PM with a “Do Nothing”
action. When devices are controlled by an event, it holds the events state unless it is overridden by another event or a
manual action by a user.
The nDTC supports up to 32 schedules, and maintains two types of schedules, Normal and Holiday.
