Specifying for Success with Today’s Wireless Mesh Controls

There are many reasons why one would want to design wireless mesh lighting controls, but how do you make sure that the project meets the owner’s budget, preserves a flexible system, and gains the approval of the project team? Then, how do you specify and document these systems? Presenters Rita Renner and C. Webster Marsh will provide guidelines for a successful wireless mesh specification package, with a detailed look at project design goals, technology evaluation, and equipment selection. Join them as they review lessons learned from wireless mesh control projects in operation and best practices for project execution.

Learning Objectives

• Attendees will gain a basic understanding of what wireless mesh control technology is and what projects it’s a good fit for.
• Presenters will share best practices for building a project specification, including detailed exploration of design goals, technology, and cost-benefit evaluation.
• Attendees will explore how to facilitate discussions and coordinate with a project team for selecting wireless mesh, including overcoming reservations about range and other concerns.
• Presenters will offer overviews of unique and recent projects and how lessons learned from these projects can inform best practices in the specification process.
