C-Bus Wireless or LexCom Home Control are
the perfect solution for partial home installations.
The fl exibility of these systems means that
they can be expanded at any time, and extra
features can be added quickly and easily as
your needs change.
Step 1 >
Start with the home cinema.
You can experience the convenience of remote
control lighting for under $500. Control your
lamp by remote with the use of a plug adaptor.
Next, add a light switch and control your lights
by remote control too.
Step 2 >
Add the living areas next.
Create a ‘Watch TV’ scene that will adjust the
lighting in your living room just the way you like
it. Create a ‘Dinner Party’ scene that sets the
perfect mood for when you’re entertaining.
One touch of your ‘Welcome Home’ button will
ensure the lights are on in your family room
and kitchen.
Step 3 >
Now do your master bedroom and walk-in robe.
Make life easier by controlling your bed lamps
by remote. Use your ‘Goodnight’ button to turn
off bedroom and living area lights with one
touch – this is the favourite feature of existing
C-Bus users.
Step 4 >
Finally look at the other key areas in your home.
Light up your hallway for your kids at night.
Control your patio lights to get the right
atmosphere when entertaining. You can also
add plug adaptors to allow you to control your
spa, water feature or garden lights.
Traditional C-Bus
®
If you want to automate your whole home,
Clipsal recommends traditional C-Bus.
Step 1 >
Enjoy the convenience of an ‘All Off’ button
that turns off every light, inside and outside the
home, or a ‘Panic’ button that will instantly turn
on every light in an emergency.
Step 2 >
Install DLT™ (Dynamic Labelling Technology)
switches and Touch Screens in your living
areas and home cinema. Touch Screens give
you customisable control and extra functionality,
while the digital labels on DLT switches clearly
show what each button does. There are even
clever indicators on light switches to show the
light level you have chosen.
Step 3 >
Experience intelligent switches that use ‘logic’ to
enhance your lifestyle. Program your switches
to perform various functions at different times
of the day. For example, have your hallway light
turn on at 80% between 6am and 10pm, then
to 40% during the night. Or have lights that
automatically adjust in brightness according to
ambient light levels, saving you money on power
(globe life is increased by half, simply by running
lights at 95% brightness!). For security, use an
‘Away’ scene that will automatically activate
lights when you are on vacation, making your
home look occupied.
Step 4 >
Use movement sensors in hallways, toilets and
walk-in robes. Lights will only turn on when
needed and won’t be left on, wasting electricity.
Step 5 >
Enjoy music throughout your entire home. With
C-Bus Multi Room Audio, the same switch
that controls your lights, can also control your
music. There are no bulky hi-fi components or
ugly wall mounted audio controllers. Kids can
even plug in their iPod in their bedroom.
Step 6 >
Integrate your security system with a ‘C-Bus
enabled’ alarm panel. Operate your security
system and turn lights on and off with the press
of one button, or by entering your PIN code into
your keypad.
Full System Integration
The next step is full system integration of all
your technology.
Step 1 >
Home Cinema – have the ability to control
everything with just one Touch Screen or
Remote Control.
Step 2 >
Motorised blinds and curtains – have them
go up and down at certain times of the day,
have them close as you press your ‘Goodbye’
button, or open and close automatically
depending on the sunlight levels.
Step 3 >
Air-conditioning – Have a C-Bus thermostat or
integrated control, activated by the ‘Goodbye’,
‘Goodnight’ or ‘Welcome Home’ buttons.
Step 4 >
Garage Door – Trigger your ‘Welcome Home’
scene from your garage door opener, so that
everything in your home is just as you like it
when you walk in.
Step 5 >
Irrigation – Control your sprinklers from your
C-Bus Touch Ccreen. You can include
‘scheduling’, which is ideal for areas observing
water restrictions. It’s even possible to integrate
a weather station so your sprinklers don’t turn
on and waste water if it has rained.
*Figure based on a recommended retail price of
$3,500 to $5,000 for C-Bus Wireless products
over 30 years at 7.5% interest variable rate. Not
including installation.
There really is a C-Bus, C-Bus
Wireless or LexCom Home Control
system for any home or budget.
You can add a hard wired C-Bus to
a C-Bus Wireless system and vice
versa – so you can add whatever
you want to your smart home,
whenever it suits you.
This smart home will only add
between $6 and $8 a week to an
average mortgage*.
Speak to your electrician for a partial home
installation using C-Bus Wireless or LexCom
Home Control, a C-Bus Approved Installer for
a whole home solution, or a C-Bus pointOne
Accredited Integration Professional for a full
system integration.
