HIVE Combine

Until now, those looking to meet energy compliance, functionality, and reporting requirements for car parks and stairwells had to choose between:

Basic on/off sensors without any additional functionality or reporting
A complex lighting control system requiring additional infrastructure, installation, and ongoing maintenance expenses

In many cases, due to these factors, a system approach is never taken due to the complexity and costs, leaving these key areas with a lack of adequate functionality and reporting.

What is HIVE Combine?

HIVE Combine is a lighting management system that utilises the existing Zoneworks HIVE system to provide energy consumption, occupancy sensing and system health through an easy-to-use and data-rich dashboard.

This allows for the optimal configuration of lighting outcomes in your car parks, stairwells, and back-of-house areas to save you money whilst providing a safer and desired outcome for users.

The easy-to-use Zoneworks HIVE Combine interface provides all the required functionality settings to configure the lighting outcomes across the Car Park, Stairwells, Back of House and Plant Room areas.

Unmatched Simplicity

The Zoneworks Emergency Lighting platform has continuously evolved and is a trusted solution that has been successfully installed in over 2,500 facilities over the past 15 years.

The update to Zoneworks HIVE was a game-changer as it reduced the backbone to one single controller for 1,000 fittings and introduced dynamic self-managed meshing to make design, installation, commissioning and management simpler than ever before.

Adding lighting control to Zoneworks HIVE for areas such as car parks, stairwells, plant rooms, and back-of-house provides a seamless compliance approach. One system and no additional cost.

The HIVE Combine solution

With Clevertronics supplying general and emergency battens and luminaires into these areas, it became apparent that a solution utilising the existing HIVE network would greatly help simplify lighting management in building areas where complexity and financial constraints made it difficult to justify.

With Zoneworks HIVE, you not only get the market leading emergency lighting testing and monitoring system but now lighting control functionality that can cover the key areas of car parks, stairwells and back of house areas at no additional cost.

With the addition of HIVE Combine to the Zoneworks platform, meeting compliance with advanced lighting functionality and system health has never been easier.

Stairwell Application

Lighting Management in a stairwell is achieved very easily using HIVE Combine. The following scenario outlines an example of group control.

Group Control Example

As the occupant moves down the stairs, the level below is turned on, and the upper levels dim and turn off as they time out. This type of grouping can be configured in countless ways depending on the requirements of the building. HIVE Combine makes this control easy and is more effective than basic sensors in every fitting.

Group Control Example

All luminaires in this example are emergency HIVE Combine enabled, using stand-alone motion sensors or sensors built into the luminaire at the entry door. Presence on entry turns the landing and half-landing luminaires on and simultaneously turns on the luminaires at the level above and below.

Car Park application

The above scenarios outline two solutions which are described as bank switching control and individual control.

Bank Switching Example

Involves stand-alone or integral HIVE sensors to activate banks of luminaires upon presence detection on entry. Every second driveway luminaire is a HIVE Combine emergency luminaire with integrated sensor to also detect presence and dim to a set level after timing elapses.

Individual Control Example

All luminaires and sensors are HIVE Combine enabled. The luminaires can be set up in groups as required to be triggered by presence detection and/or timed events. Energy and luminaire health information available for every individual luminaire in addition to dashboard views.

Your Partner in Compliance

Clevertronics offers complimentary lifetime support through our Lifetime Technical Support (LTS) program. This service is designed to help the building owner & maintenance contractor manage the on-going health of the system.

Emergency lighting is regarded as a life saving device and therefore it is essential that it is always in working order. Many emergency lighting companies finish their involvement on your project once the product has been supplied. However, at Clevertronics we know that on-going support is important to contractors and building owners. Clevertronics offers lifetime support through our Lifetime Technical Support (LTS) program
