Controlling a Street Lighting Network

Weekdays. A daily schedule turns on the lights at the start of the

morning commute hour, turns them off for the daylight hours, turns them

on again for the evening commute hour, and dims them at the end of the

evening commute hour.

Weekends. A weekly schedule that turns on the lights at sundown and

turns them off at sunrise.

You would create exception schedules for holidays. The holiday exception

schedules would have the same behavior as the weekend schedule.

Creating the Weekday Schedule

The weekday schedule shown in Figure 11 uses the following events, which

occur Monday through Friday:

An ON_100 event that turns on the lights to 100% at the start of the

morning commute hour. This event occurs at one hour before sunrise.

An OFF event that turns the lights off during the daylight hours. This

event occurs at 09:00 AM.

An ON_100 event that turns on the lights to 100% at the start of the

evening commute hour. This event occurs at one hour before sunset.

An ON_60 event that dims the lights at the end of the evening commute

hour. The lights remain at this level for the rest of the night. This event

occurs at 20:00 (8:00 PM).
