The Luxor ZD is a new landscape lighting controller for LED systems from FX Luminaire. What makes the Luxor ZD unique to the market is that it provides zoning and dimming capabilities from a single, easy-to-use controller with a full color digital interface.
Most landscape lighting systems simply turn on and off. With built-in zoning and dimming capabilities, the Luxor system brings them to life. Zoning allows lights to be programmed into preset vignettes, which can be activated for special occasions such as parties, or activities such as barbequing. Dimming allows LED lights to automatically emit any desired illumination percentage anytime, anywhere within a system. So, group 1 can be set to 100% illumination at 7:00 p.m., and automatically shift to 60% at 9:00 p.m., and so on. Since you can have up to 250 groups of lights controlled by a single box, the designer has a tremendously high degree of flexibility when designing a system.
The Luxor utilizes FX’s proprietary ZDTM technology, which allows the controller to “talk” to the LED lights and alerts them to adjust their illumination based on events scheduled in the controller. It is applicable to both residential and commercial projects, and is available now. More information can be found by visiting fxl.com/luxor.
