ready2mains
ready2mains tells the current how to communicate
Simple connection, secure configuration
ready2mains uses the mains cable to
transmit information: easily, reliably and
professionally.
Luminaires are controlled and dimmed directly via
the mains, with no need for any additional wiring.
Manufacturers can configure their luminaires with
ready2mains, saving time and enhancing flexibility.
ready2mains reduces production costs and installation
costs and also reduces possible sources of error.
That’s how your current communicates
ready2mains uses
phase-cuts to send
digital commands
via the mains wiring.

connecDIM
Controlling and managing light has never been easier
connecDIM – Tridonic’s next generation distributed
smart lighting management solution
24/7
This innovative lighting management
solution provides an excellent platform for smart, cost-effective and
user-friendly control and lighting management, from a few simple DALI
devices up to a complex lighting system in a building.
Whether it is an existing or new DALI
infrastructure, your lighting installation can easily be connected via the
connecDIM gateway to the connecDIM cloud.
It uploads all your lighting data information and parameters to a central
cloud webserver. Access can be en-
www.connecdim.com
abled anytime, anywhere remotely via
internet.
The heart of this distributed lighting
management solution is the connecDIM gateway. This piece of hardware
makes it possible to collect the data
(from the DALI devices) and translate the information via TCP/IP to the
cloud. Information and energy monitoring can be easily reported. It also
enables the wireless commissioning
via the iPhone, iPad or Android smart
devices. To setup and configure a
DALI installation is now easier and
faster.

Upgrading to LEDs
Professional instead of conventional
Switching to LED technology can be quick and simple
LED light sources open up new possibilities in lighting design. Not only are they highly durable, they are also extremely energy efficient. But switching to LED technology is
not just an option when planning a new lighting system as.
Tridonic offers two simple and cost-effective solutions for
upgrading existing luminaires. With the new accessory set
for tmodule LLE from Tridonic, existing linear luminaires, equipped with T5 or T8 fluorescent lamps, can be
quickly and easily upgraded to state-of-the-art LED technology – even using the same production equipment. The
new tready2apply products can be installed directly
in ceilings and are therefore are a convenient and professional solution.
Ready-to-install solutions – Uready2apply
The new tready2apply products are suitable for direct installation
in ceilings – simple and convenient
because the LED module, heat sink
and lens form a single unit. This means
it is possible to switch very quickly
and cost-effectively from conventional ­
halogen or compact fluorescent
lamps to a preconfigured professional
LED solution.
The tready2apply range features installation-ready spotlight and
downlight solutions to meet professional lighting requirements, for example in shops and hotels. Even the
LED Driver has been integrated in the
tready2apply DLA downlight
www.tridonic.com/led-compact
version. The tready2apply SLA
for spotlights is offered in two versions: one for high-end dimming via a
one4all interface (DALI, DSI, switchDIM, corridorFUNCTION; 100 –1 %)
and one for phase-cut dimmers (100 –
10 %).

Upgrading to LEDs
The professional way to
upgrade linear luminaires
to LED technology
Tridonic offers a complete set for
upgrading existing luminaires to LED
technology. In no time at all, T5 and
T8 light sources can be swapped out
for tmodule LLE 16 and 24.
Available accessories include covers
with different transmission grades,
end caps and fixing clips. The LED
light sources can be fixed in place
without the need for screws or tools.
The end caps offer complete protection against accidental contact with
the LLE module. Different covers provide high levels of translucence and
optimum distribution of light. The entire concept has been well thought out
and for the first time, linear luminaires
can be quickly and easily upgraded to
LED technology.
If we compare two 36 W T8 light sources with one tmodule LLE,
the initially higher procurement costs
will be offset in less than two years
thanks to the much lower operating
costs. This calculation is based on an
operating time of ten hours a day for
250 days a year. Whereas fluorescent
lamps have to be replaced on average
once every three years, LLE modules
will operate for 50,000 hours. There
are also total savings of around 65 kg
of CO2 per light source.
