LED lighting specialist 4062 Raytec has integrated its range of Vario IP network illuminators with Milestone’s XProtect video management system, providing a high level of lighting flexibility, management and control in conjunction with all other network technologies in a security system, from one central platform.

The integration uses Raytec Milestone plug-in software, available free of charge from the Raytec website.
 
Controlled individually or in groups, Raytec network illuminators can be easily configured using the Milestone management application to create a smart system designed to provide event driven lighting triggered by alarms from a camera, detector or other network device. The same illuminator can also provide a safe and well lit area for pedestrians or workers.
 
Users can also take instant manual control of any single illuminator or group of illuminators using the Milestone smart Client, during day to day operation. Advanced settings allow for user defined lighting design to meet the requirements of any installation.
