Timer
With the integrated real time clock of the Light-Manager it is possible to trigger scenarios
at certain points of times at certain days.
The internal clock of the Light-Manager is synchronized with an Internet time server
resulting in a very accurate time adjustment at any time.
The option
Simulate presence
will move points of time in the range of +/- 60 minutes
randomly. So for an observer from outside it is not obvious that this is an automated
process.
Astro function
Instead of using fixed points of time it is often desired to couple lighting control to dusk
or dawn. The Light-Manager offers an extensive astro function for this purpose which
calculates the times for civil twilight for each day and each location precisely. Civil
twilight is defined as the point of time where it is not possible anymore to read a
newspaper outside in the evening.
