Clipsal C-Bus

Clipsal C-Bus Home Lighting Automation is the perfect addition to any home. Imagine pressing a “welcome home” button on a remote control as you pull into your driveway and having your pathway, front porch and hallway lights turn on. Your air-conditioner begins to warm or cool your living room, and your favourite music starts playing throughout your house. That’s a smart home!

And that’s just the beginning, imagine a “goodnight” button that turns everything off when you go to bed, and a “watch DVD” button that activates your home cinema and dims your lights when you watch a movie. That’s smart living!

The best news is, you can have it. Whether you are building or want to
enhance your existing home, with Clipsal C-Bus and C-Bus Wireless, anyone
can enjoy the benefi ts of a smart home. You can even start small and add to
the system as your lifestyle changes.

Our showroom is fully fitted with C-Bus Lighting. So come in and see for yourself, the possibilities with C-Bus.

Better than conventional light control

With Conventional Lighting control, it is not possible to do many things that a C-Bus system can. For instance, It is not possible to turn allyour Lights in your home on with a single switch, nor is it possible to set predetermined brightness levels with a push of a button. With a C-Bus System, there is significantly less Cable used, and because each room's lights aren't linked to any one wall switch, they can be setup to be controled from any C-Bus wall switch or sensor.

Away from home for some time? Deter would-be burglars by giving your home the “lived in look.” Lights can be turned on and off at set times as well as opening curtains during the day and closing them at night again, all according to a schedule. This is something, not possible with conventional light control.

Setting the scene

Clipsal has designed a wall switch that allows you to have dynamic labels attached to each of the wall switch's buttons, with the use of a small lcd screen. For Example; Say you had a Home Theatre Room. For the First button you would have it labeled "All on", this would bring all the lights to full brightness. For the second button you would have it labeled "Interval", All the lights would go to 80%. The third button would be labeled "TV" This would put the front rows of lights at 20%, the middle row at 40% and the back row at 70% so you could still read the paper or a book if you wanted. The last button would be labeled "Movie", This would set all the light to off, so you can enjoy the full movie experience. The Dynamic label wall switches aren't the only ones that can have predetermined scenes, most of the C-Bus wall switches and also C-Bus Motion Sensors can also do scenes.

Stylish control

Not only are the C-Bus Wall Switches equipped with versatile control, they are also available in many styles. From Glass Facia's to stainless steel finishes, you can match them to your home's style. The wall switches are available in a variaty of different configurations. Most styles are available in 2,4,6 or 8 button configurations as well as the Dynamic Label Models. A Range of Color and Black/White touch screen panels are also available in all the different styles and colors. The touch panels allow a much wider control of your home's lighting. It is possible to set the brightness of any light in your home from this one panel.

Easy to use

C-Bus may sound really complex, But it's not! Because C-Bus is programed to how you would like to control your lights, you won't have any trouble adapting to it. C-Bus will only make your life a whole lot easier. With the basic push button wall plates you can do everything from turn on and off the lights in a room to slowly dim the up or down and even turn all the light in your home off or on.
