No lol. I'm just having fun and giving @MadamPirate PE a hard time for casting a fake vote (she's not one of the players)Giving us townies tips now??
"Power over ethernet" seemed like a hot item a few years ago. Everyone at the trade show was raving about it. For some reason, it seems to have died out. I'm not sure why, but the feedback I'm getting is that it wasn't reliable enough and too costly up front to justify potential savings in labor vs the standard conduit/wire. Also, most of our clients don't seem to want to bother with complicated lighting control systems.Spent all day trying to update lighting circuitry and integration with Power-over-Ethernet lighting. This is too complicated. What happened to regular light switches and time clocks?
Korhal has 2 moons, so it's bright enough for you guys to work through the night.Anyway the clock is ticking and without a mayor, we only have 3-4 days to get this right.
Fun fact, our new office has occupancy sensors on the lights so it will recognize if someone is here by both motion and sound. Except the lights are always on, and the EE thinks the HVAC and sound masking is tricking the sound portion into thinking there is someone here.Spent all day trying to update lighting circuitry and integration with Power-over-Ethernet lighting.

Just going on instinct here that @FlangeheadPEAZ seems like a likely choice to vote, but by that same logic I am a good choice as well. As you saw, my vote was purely randomly generated. I suspect @FlangeheadPEAZ had no inclination that txj was the cop unless they are the mafia spy and got very lucky with their first investigation.
I am going to keep reading and soul searching to see if I have a better vote.
The last client we put one in for wanted to be able to modify fixture locations and zones without expensive electrician costs. They have something called compliance walls that need to be put up on temporary basis for any of their sub-companies. Something to do with SEC laws. It doesn't solve HVAC, sprinkler, or fire alarm issues but I guess it lessens those renovation costs."Power over ethernet" seemed like a hot item a few years ago.

Integral sensors have never really worked well in my experience. Lighting controls work best using external control devices that can be more strategically placed so they aren't near a diffuser or easily adjusted if the sensitivity on every sensor is too high.Fun fact, our new office has occupancy sensors on the lights so it will recognize if someone is here by both motion and sound.

So... I have no idea what you just said, but I'm not sure if they are ON the lights...or just...somewhere in the space.Integral sensors have never really worked well in my experience.

Lol I tend to do that. I have trouble using less technical terms. We have dual technology (motion and sound) sensors as well, but have not had that issue. It could be a sensitivity issue or a location issue. Maybe it could be also the sensor they are using? Some manufacturers are cheap and their sensors don't function as intended.So...
