Challenge
The visual and technical possibilities with Loxone Smart Home technology are what allow the entry into the house of God. State-of-the-art Smart Home functionality meets traditional religion. The miniserver as a brain ensures not only the ideal temperature and humidity for fair visitors and works of art, but also the perfect lighting mood and with its intelligent monitoring for security. In the evening, the motion detectors become alarm monitors and with an automatic call in case of emergency, the priest is also alerted by phone.
Solution
To protect the sculptures, which are sensitive to high humidity, the room temperature and humidity are constantly monitored. The supply temperature for the wall heating is controlled by the miniserver and ensures a constant temperature of about 14°C in winter. At the push of a button, masses in the parish church are staged with the appropriate lighting mood. Eight different lighting scenarios are available for selection: Sunday, weekday, rosary, confession, feast day, baptism, adoration wake, central off or reset light scenes. The lighting in the sacristy is presence controlled. This ensures that the lighting is only on as long as someone is in the room.
