Showroom

Building successful commercial premises comes down to creating the proper integrated building management at the best price. Using LED lighting is a good start. Then add the ability to control every other aspect of the work environment on-site and from any place in the world. TELETASK redefines 'flexibility’ and ‘total cost-of-services’.

 

Objective

A showroom and office environment has many electrical functionalities which can be integrated with each other. It is an everyday task at opening and closing times, to control a large number of systems. In a traditional installation switches are used to control lights, wall sockets, doors and gates, air conditioning, music distribution systems, motorized sun blinds, shields and shutters, etc. These tasks not only take time for the evolved employees, but are also often complex and have influence on the security and energy management of the offices, show room, shop area and the building in general. By integrating most of these functions, risks and disadvantages are limited to a minimum while the building management can be done by about anyone who is dedicated to this job. 

Advantages

Using the TELETASK domotics system in showrooms with or without office and service area’s has many advantages.

  • Limited access is given with proximity access control cards/tags. No traditional keys used. No copies possible.

  • Limited access based on user level and cloud managed settings.

  • Limited access based on day / time of the day

  • First higher level employee needs to be present before lower level access is possible

  • When accessing automatic opening of door/gate, activating lights if dark, activating wall sockets (PC, copier, coffee machines, water supply and other systems and equipment)

  • Automatic registration of employee access time

At opening time:

At closing time:

  • The access to the showroom and other areas at closing time is blocked for visitors
  • Unnecessary lighting is dimmed (at once or slowly group by group)

  • All lights dimmed, heating/cooling lowered after some time. Music is stopped and systems like coffee machines and other wall sockets are disconnected
