Luxor

Luxor is a lighting transformer and controller capable of controlling groups of lights that are initiated by programmed events. These events are adjustments of light intensity at set times. All lights within a system are communicated with and powered via two-wire connections. All lights within a system communicate with the same two-wire connections that also power the system.

Luxor is intended for use with FX Luminaire LED fixtures or devices containing FX Luminaire ZD Technology® or ZDC Technology®. Use of other fixtures is not recommended due to the absence of communication capabilities. Luxor is not for use with incandescent fixtures.
