PictureIT is a simple, intuitive graphical user interface that
provides lighting system control that is easily understood by
any user. The PictureIT software gives a visual representation
for real-time monitor and control of preprogrammed func-
tions for a Lutron centralized lighting control system (CLCS).
A home screen with a visual overview of the entire facility
can be used to navigate to successively more detailed views
of individual areas.
Lutron's Graphic Design Service tailors the PictureIT applica-
tion to meet each customer's individual needs. This cus-
tomization is accomplished by working from customer-pro-
vided drawings and images. Lutron’s Graphic Design Service
often includes consultation at the customer’s site, ensuring
that all functionality options are considered.
Three levels of PictureIT functionality are available: Standard,
Intermediate, and Deluxe. The Standard package includes 8
screens of scene control. The Intermediate package includes
the 8 screens and adds the ability to include virtual wall con-
trols that simulate the controls that are in the actual rooms.
The Deluxe package adds the ability to directly control indi-
vidual zones, time clocks, partition states, and other
advanced functions. All of the packages include our design
service and the PictureIT software. Most customers find that
the 8 screens that are included are more than enough for
their application. However, in cases where additional pages
of control are required, they can be purchased separately.
In the typical implementation, PictureIT is operated directly
on the eLumen server. However, it can also be accessed
from client machines, with a maximum of 5 concurrent
users. Although each client machine requires an eLumen
license, the remaining components of the eLumen Suite do
not need to be installed with PictureIT.
