The Integrated Control Solution
zencontrol delivered a fully automated and networked lighting control system across the arena, providing precise control of both lighting and associated mechanical systems.
In addition to the core lighting control components, zencontrol supplied and integrated control solutions for:
- High inrush HDTV broadcast lighting
- Sun pipe aperture motors
- Lux lift motors
- Toilet water solenoids
Working in conjunction with the Field of Play lighting controls, the system provides seamless control across the 13,700 m² back-of-house areas, including catering, security, media facilities and athlete warm-up spaces.
Centralised Control & Live Monitoring
All lighting and mechanical systems are centrally controlled from a head-end PC, providing real-time status information and system feedback. This live visibility ensured reliable operation throughout the Games, supporting uninterrupted performance during events watched by millions of viewers worldwide.
Commissioning, Maintenance & Operational Flexibility
System commissioning and ongoing maintenance were further enhanced through the use of tablet-based configuration tools, allowing engineers to adjust system parameters while observing equipment operation directly within the venue.
This approach proved particularly valuable for the 15-metre-high Lux lift motors and sun pipe aperture systems, enabling efficient setup, testing and fine-tuning within a complex, large-scale arena environment
