• Field effect technology* – The user interface detects an
approaching user and ‘wakes up’, initiating a wall-wash
lighting effect to encourage interaction.
• Supplied as two components – The Application
Module contains buttons, rim, base and mounting plate,
which can be mixed and matched to suit décor. The
Communication Module (DACM) contains logical and
network functions and can be pre-programmed off-site,
allowing commissioning to commence prior to finalizing
rim and button options.
• Hidden sensory inputs – An internal light sensor
measures ambient light and adjusts lightwash effect
accordingly. A built-in temperature sensor automatically
adjusts air conditioning when integrated into the system.
• Multiple language and icon labeling – Button labeling
language choices include English, Chinese and Arabic.
A library of common icons transcends language barriers,
which is particularly useful in hospitality applications.
• Décor-matching options – Buttons and rims are
available in a range of attractive polycarbonate and
metallic finishes.

Communication Module Ordering Code
The Communication Module is compatible with all interfaces across the Antumbra series, and can be ordered,
programmed, installed, wired and tested without the Application Module attached.
This allows the commissioning process to begin before the nal nish options have been chosen, or during
construction, and protects the Application Module from damage until the site is ready for occupancy.
