Casambi Pro is a powerful tool designed for planning and commissioning lighting control systems. It streamlines the configuration process, particularly for large-scale projects, by allowing most programming tasks to be completed offsite before being deployed to physical devices via Bluetooth.
Casambi Pro enables professionals to configure networks and control structures offline using a Windows PC (Windows 10 or newer). The commissioning process is then finalized on-site with an Apple iPad. This method significantly improves efficiency, reducing setup time and minimizing on-site work.
To use Casambi Pro, the following devices are required:
Windows PC (Windows 10 or newer) – for network planning and configuration.
Apple iPad – for commissioning and final deployment.
Bluetooth & Internet Connectivity – to ensure seamless communication between devices.
Note: Casambi Pro is not compatible with Android devices or macOS computers.
