Dialight Becomes the First LED Lighting Provider to Join the Encompass™ Partnership Program by Rockwell Automation

Dialight Joins PartnerNetwork with Full Line of Rockwell Automation Compatible LED Smart Lighting Controls

FARMINGDALE, N.J. (April 14, 2016)—Dialight (LSE: DAI.L), the innovative global leader in LED lighting technology, today announced it has joined the Rockwell Automation PartnerNetwork™, becoming the first LED lighting supplier in the Encompass Product Referencing Program.

The compatibility with Rockwell Automation systems will enable industrial facilities to leverage the energy- and maintenance-saving benefits of Dialight high-performance LED lighting with ease and simplicity.

With built-in support for EtherNet/IP (EIP) networking and the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP), Dialight’s advanced lighting controls can be tightly integrated with other systems within a facility, allowing site managers to consolidate control systems and simplify maintenance procedures. For example, by integrating with Rockwell Automation, users have access to the advanced features of Dialight’s lighting network controls and can create their own logic and control systems to manage Dialight’s advanced controls, using Dialight sensors and system status messages as input.

“We are extremely pleased to formalize our partnership with Rockwell Automation by joining the Encompass program,” said Michael Sutsko, Dialight’s Group Chief Executive. “Not only does Dialight’s membership help facilities upgrade with ease to more efficient and economical lighting with a fixture and controls partner they can trust, but it also means they can come to Dialight with the confidence in knowing they’ll get a seamlessly compatible, exceptionally reliable product that’s become the LED product of choice in hundreds of thousands of fixture installations around the world.”

In addition to joining the Rockwell Automation PartnerNetwork, Dialight will launch, subsequent to the wireless occupancy sensor, a new daylight harvesting sensor and enterprise software with ADR (Automated Demand Response).
