100% DALI!
DALI, both DT6 or DT8, is easily handled. Monochrome, DW, RGB, and RGBW are supported. DALI 2 devices (input devices and ballasts) are, of course, also supported!

Interact!
Involve the environment – no matter if its daylight, motion, time or astronomic events. Create light curves based on daytime / daylight (HCL)!

Anywhere you like!
Prepare everything at any location, and map real devices with the powerful DALI manager. You can test entire lines or individual luminaires.

A better group!
Combine ballasts from different DALI lines into a group—they can be members of several groups…. or simply broadcast!

System expansion!
Scale with your needs. Using our network based SYMPL controller range, your project can start from a single output device up to hundreds!

Safe and reliable!
Our lighting system has been designed to run 24/7/365. We provide tools to monitor and inform in case of any failure. Utilising a backup device provides the best possible safety for a 100% redundant system.

Quick and easy!
Identify and/or add your SYMPL devices with just a fingertip. Advanced testing functions built in to the SYMPL device will make testing your luminaires on-site much easier.

Stay independent!
Reduce on-site hassle – prepare your project at your favorite place using offline devices and fixtures. Then, when you are on-site simply replace with your actual devices and fixtures.

Possibilities like never before!

Visual programming within the workflow designer enables infinite possibilities to create smart logical workflows. This is the most powerful way to connect everything with everyone.

Visual programming to accomplish any project requirement
Create templates in the workflow designer for often used logical workflows – great for bigger multiroom projects
Interact with almost any environment to realise the most versatile projects!

All with everything!

The modern world thrives on interconnected systems. SYMPHOLIGHT facilitates seamless integration with 3rd party devices, delivering a superior user experience.

Support multiple communication protocols
Built in secure webserver with http and https
Interact with almost any environment to realise the most versatile projects!

ActionPad Designer
is an easy to use tool to create ActionPad or website which allows interaction with your lighting installation. Everyone can have a dedicated control interface adapted to their own needs. For the best user experience on mobile devices, use the SymphoTouch App.

(REST) API & MQTT
is the standard way to communicate with 3rd party systems. From a 3rd party system it is possible to start, stop, fade, monitor, view alerts or make content changes from one or more SYMPHOLIGHT instances via your local network or from the internet.

Experts – Scripting is for you!
Sometimes, writing your own script can solve tasks faster or enable additional functionality. With our inbuilt C# scripting-editor you can create your own functionality blocks – and then simply drop it into the workflow designer and connect it with other objects.

Sympholight has them all

Sympholight serves as the central hub, supporting all common protocols. In conjunction with the SYMPL Interface Family and gateways, it enables the control of virtually any luminaire and communication with any third-party system. Sensors and other input devices can be easily integrated as well.

Release Notes

General
• CHANGE: Significantly improved the performance of the logging system, which avoids problems e.g. on faulty RDM installations.

• CHANGE: Added the option to log detailed debug messages that might help at troubleshooting.

• FIX: In rare cases, Sympholight was unable to shut down properly.

• FIX: In some cases, RDM devices erroneously toggled between the online and offline state, although they were permanently present.

• FIX: Ordering dongle credits is now only possible if the current dongle is plugged in and detected correctly.

• FIX: Improved the stability of the REST API in case of external faulty Scheduler requests.

• FIX: In rare cases, the DALI engine crashed when setting certain DT8 ballast properties. Also further improved the stability of the DALI engine.

Setup
• FEATURE: The RDM view now shows the number of detected RDM devices for each controller.

• FIX: In some cases, having new e:cue products in the network causes the device list to be empty if the Sympholight version does not support the new device yet.

Content
• FEATURE: New timeline tracks for layout groups are no longer created automatically, which saves space, improves the usability and increases performance.

Workflow Designer
• FEATURE: Added a “Counter” port to the Periodic Trigger block, which delivers the number of triggers since the last reset.

• FIX: The values of SYMPL input Nodes were not considered after loading the project. This caused displaying wrong values and missing underflow/overflow events on project load. Value changes after loading the project were not affected.

ActionPad
• FEATURE: The page index that can be used in the URL to directly jump to the desired ActionPad page is now a persisted property and does not change if other pages with lower indices are deleted. Thus, the link is kept intact.

• CHANGE: Updated the list of available screen resolutions to more generic and more up-to-date values.

• CHANGE: The border which indicates the target device resolution is now better visible.

• FIX: The text padding of ActionPad labels and buttons is no longer reset unintentionally when the user moves or resizes the button/label.

• FIX: In rare cases, a white border was shown right to and below the ActionPad page when using the SymphoTouch app.

• FIX: In some cases, duplicating an ActionPad page did not create
