Pre-purchase FAQ
What is the Aurora AOne Zigbee System?
AOne is a Smart Lighting System based on the Zigbee Protocol, it is a very similar Technology to
Wi-Fi as they both run on the same 2.4GHz Frequency.
The System can be used in both Residential and Commercial settings.
Using a Hub, our Smart Products can wirelessly communicate with one another to perform tasks
together or relay information from one Device to another.
The AOne System is focused only on lighting products and lighting control and as such, our products
are either a luminaire or a method to control a light such as a Dimmer or Sensor.
The Devices can be controlled via our AOne Smartphone Apps or via a Wall Control Device, such as
the Battery Remote, Kinetic Wall Controllers or Battery Rotary Dimmers.

What is AOne™?
The Aurora AOne™ is a new breed of lighting control system. All
the smart Devices can be retrofitted and are modular - no need for
specialised cable like systems of old.
It uses a secure bi-directional wireless technology called Zigbee to
send 128 bit encrypted commands.
Device types like lamps, downlights, sockets and dimmers are
Smart Inside, which means the wireless control is built into the
Device.
To gain control of existing Devices you can use “Make Smart with” AOne™ controllers like a 1-10V,
16A relay and Triac dimmer.
Meet the AOne™ Hub
Once installed, the Devices are paired to an AOne™ Hub, the brains
of the AOne™ system. This Device coordinates the system storing
schedules, scenes and spaces locally on the Hub in the eventuality
of losing internet connection.
An ethernet cable with a live internet connection is attached to the
Hub which connects it to the power of the Aurora cloud and allows
you to control your Devices from anywhere in the world.
The AOne™ Hub connects Aurora AOne™ Devices to the leading
voice platforms like Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa. Which enables a user to walk into a room
and say “Hey Google turn on the lights”
