In this module, we provide an in-depth exploration of the Qualified Products List for Networked Lighting Control systems and technical specifications for inclusion on the list. In a live demonstration, we’ll show how to use the list and discuss various caveats and tips. This session will equip you to utilize and explore the NLC Qualified Products List to identify appropriate systems for your projects, including various filters to help narrow the search results. We will also review DLC requirements and recommendations for “Interoperability”.
