8-Channel Smart Light Controller (WS558)
An industrial-grade 8-channel smart lighting and power circuit controller designed for wall or DIN rail mounting. Offering active output (LN Type) and passive switch options, it provides integrated power telemetry metrics including real-time voltage, current, and active wattage alongside local physical control buttons and ultra-low latency gateway-free automation protocols.
Key Highlights
- Dual Circuit Variant Architecture: Available in LN Type with 8 Active Outputs or Switch Type with 8 Passive Switches to fit different room configurations.
- Integrated Smart Electrical Measurement: Natively collects real-time voltage, current, power factor, power, and electrical consumption data (LN Type).
- Local Hardware Control Overrides: Outfitted with 8 local switch buttons to directly test lamp wiring status manually on-site without any network connection.
- Ultra Low Latency Control Layer: Fully compatible with the custom Device-to-Device (D2D) communication protocol for gateway-free under-1-second actions.
- Centralized High Load Configurations: Manages a robust load envelope supporting up to 10A resistive or 5A capacitive and inductive loads per circuit.
Product Overview
The hardware functions as a professional smart light controller explicitly engineered for monitoring and controlling up to eight distinct electrical circuits locally or remotely without requiring complex structural re-wiring. Built with two specialized wiring architectures, the device is deployed as an LN Type with 8 active power outputs or as a Switch Type with 8 passive switches to natively accommodate different room layouts and indoor wiring setups. The LN model integrates granular electrical measurement instruments to collect real-time grid telemetry including line voltage, circuit current, power factor percentage, current power wattage, and total cumulative electrical consumption.
To facilitate simple physical commissioning and troubleshooting, the device embeds eight physical switch buttons allowing on-site operators to test lighting connectivity manually without any live network configuration. Operating over universal long-range networks as an OTAA/ABP Class C node, the creamy-white ABS enclosure supports multicast grouping for simultaneous bulk management commands alongside custom time delay switches and overcurrent protection alarms. The architecture is designed to mount cleanly onto standard walls or 35mm DIN rail tracks, operating efficiently across an expanded temperature window from -20°C to +60°C and leveraging near-field communication loops for rapid mobile phone parameter setup.
