Feature for feature, HAU Systems offers the most powerful, cost-effective product available for artistic venues, including houses of worship, theaters, educational institutions, and entertainment complexes.

The expandable Elegance™ System provides intelligent lighting control, including dimming and switching; programming for daytime, nighttime and special events; and scene and seasonal settings. Developed with reliability in mind, Elegance™ delivers energy-conserving features that result in savings on power bills and light bulbs—including the resources required to change them.

Beyond the conveniences and savings Elegance™ provides, the product is available with optional DMX-L interface for use with stage lighting systems. With DMX-L onboard, the Elegance™ System can be controlled at the stage lighting console, enabling communications with house lights through a sliding channel controller or a console button. The HAU Systems solution provides a simplified, budget-conscious strategy to unite multiple systems at a powerful centralized control point.

Elegance™ makes it easy to turn off lights that aren’t needed and to ensure that all lights are off when you leave each day. Incandescent lights can be programmed to a preset dim rate which not only saves electricity but extends bulb life. Thermostats, sprinklers, fans, and other third-party devices can also be connected to the CentraLite System and programmed to run on a schedule using the Elegance system’s astronomical clock. See how Elegance can help stretch your energy dollars as well as extend bulb life in your new facility!
