Replacing an Existing Partner
If your current vendor is exiting the market, SimplySnap makes it easy to transition and future-proof your system.
When a lighting controls vendor leaves the market, it can leave projects and customers searching for solutions. SimplySnap provides a seamless upgrade for your control system while keeping your existing fixtures. Whether it’s a warehouse, parking garage, or city-wide network, SimplySnap offers reliable performance, open integrations, and flexibility to grow with you.
Why SimplySnap?
SimplySnap is a great choice to replace existing lighting control systems. SimplySnap delivers DLC-listed wireless controls for both indoor and outdoor applications, from warehouses and parking garages to site and area, municipal, and sports lighting. Built on an enterprise-class platform, it scales to thousands of lights per location and supports multi-site management from a single dashboard.
It Just Works
Its simple architecture requires only controllers and gateways (no PoE switches, custom cables, or extra appliances) while allowing you to add optional wireless switches, sensors, and Cloud-based services as needed. Advanced diagnostics with proactive email alerts help keep systems running smoothly, and integration is available with leading third-party controls & protocols like Lutron, ETC, Pharos, BACnet, Modbus and UDP triggers. Beyond lighting, SimplySnap enables large-scale HVAC, water, gas and energy monitoring, all backed by a proven IoT platform with millions of deployed nodes since 2007.
Standards, Not Silos
SimplySnap is designed for flexibility, interoperability, and future-proofing with industry standards for seamless integration. The D4i standard supports power monitoring, diagnostics, and configuration, while Zhaga Book 18 provides a standardized interface for sensors and controllers. These standards simplify lighting component integration, adapt to changing needs, and protect your investment. D4i enables energy reporting and diagnostics, while Zhaga Book 18 ensures compatibility with 22mm and 33mm knockouts. SimplySnap's open protocols make upgrading or replacing components easy, keeping your system ready for the future.
Replace Controls, Keep The Light
Retrofitting outdated controls is easy with SimplySnap, whether you’re replacing both the driver and controller or just upgrading the controller.
There are two common retrofit paths:
-
Full Upgrade: Replace the sensor, controller, and driver with modern controls—such as the Synapse Combo Sensor—using DALI-2/D4i communication for dimming, power, and diagnostics.
-
Controller-Only Upgrade: Keep your existing 0-10V dimmable driver and add the Synapse Combo Sensor, like in the example shown here. This provides motion detection, photocell capability, and dimming control.
