The Enlighted sensors may be purchased with different levels of functionality. Select the best solution to meet your needs while ensuring a powerful IoT upgrade path in the future. We offer a two tiers of sensors. Connected Lighting (CL) and IoT Lighting (IoT)
Connected Lighting (CL)
The Enlighted Connected Lighting (CL) tier provides networked lighting functionality with enterprise-wide scheduling and reporting as well as supports BMS integration via BACnet. Automated demand response settings adjust energy use at times of peak demand [refer to Initiating Open Automated Demand Response (ADR)], and the system provides detailed energy savings data by time of day, and location (refer to View Energy Consumption). This includes lighting energy use and performance, BACnet access, and Energy and environmental APIs.
IoT Lighting
The Enlighted IoT license tier enables users to realize the full value of data services and IoT functionality via Enlighted's applications and advanced occupancy data and Location Intelligence services and APIs.
Upgrade Sensor Hardware from CL to IoT (SU-CL-IoT)
If not enabled at the time of purchase, the sensor capability can subsequently be enabled ‘over-the-air’ for an installed sensor by purchasing the SU-CL-IoT-UPG upgrade option.
It is possible to upgrade the system from Connected Lighting to IoT, but only one type (CL or IoT) of sensor can be active at any given time on Manage.

Manage Licenses
In addition, Enlighted Manage offers licenses for additional features, applications, to support an organization’s business requirements. Customers must purchase and install software licenses when using this advanced functionality to remain in compliance.
The following types of licenses are available for purchase from Enlighted. Refer to each type of license for details.
Sensor License
Sensor Licenses are required to enable BLE on Enlighted's sensors and enable communication between the Enlighted Manage and commissioned sensors for streaming data and advanced occupancy and location APIs. All Gen 5 or newer sensors commissioned to Manage must be enabled with the appropriate Connected Lighting to IoT License (EM-CL2IoT-SU).
BACnet License
The BACnet license is applicable and available only for on-premises Manage servers. The BACnet interface provides seamless integration for communication between the Enlighted lighting network and Building Management Systems (BMS). BACnet enables lighting control and monitoring via the BMS.
API License
Enlighted provides two distinct API product families: Energy and Environment APIs and Occupancy APIs. The Energy and Environment APIs support energy reporting and lighting control use cases, and Occupancy APIs support various real-time space management, space utilization, and security use cases.
