Canolight 32-Step PIR Sensor Stair Light Controller with Daylight Sensor – 5-24V DC

Upgrade your staircase with smooth, automatic step lighting using the Canolight CL-CONT-STEP-ES32-V Stair Light Controller. Designed for low-voltage single-colour LED strips, this controller provides 32 individually controlled output channels and six selectable lighting effects.

Two PIR sensors detect movement from either end of the staircase, activating the lighting effect in the appropriate direction. The included daylight sensor can prevent the lights from turning on when sufficient ambient light is available. Manual push-button switches can also be connected for convenient control from the top and bottom of the stairs.

The OLED display and three-button interface make it easy to adjust the number of active steps, lighting mode, speed, brightness, fade time and automatic shutoff delay.
