Staircase lighting timers - Staircase timers are typically part of a parallel circuit with several pushbutton switches and lamps. The light is switched on by pressing any button. The time switch ensures that the light does not stay on all the time, but goes out again within a specific and individually adjustable time interval. The name of the staircase light time switch comes from the fact that this type of light control was and is very often used in multi-storey stairwells. Of course there are other possible applications, especially if you use the tracking function. Some high-quality and yet inexpensive staircase lighting timers available in the eibabo online shop have this option, with which you can start the timing from the beginning by pressing a button in the meantime without the light going out.Catalogue content:In this eibabo® catalogue Devices for distribution board-/surface mounting > Staircase lighting timer you will find items from the following product groups:Item overview:Advance warning dimmerAutomaticAutomatic staircase lightBuilt-in deviceBuilt-in distributor deviceBuilt-in moduleFlush-mounted boxHalf light moduleHalf light time switchLong-term switchingMini circuit breakerModular installation deviceRelayStair light switchStaircase light time switchStaircase lightingStaircase lighting timerStaircase switchStaircase timerStaircase timer switchSurface-mounted stair light switchTime relayTime switchTime switch clockTimerTimer clockTimer relayTLZfrom the following manufacturers:Manufacturer overview catalogue Staircase lighting timers:ABBBusch JaegerDoepkeEatonEberleElsoEltakoFinderGrotheHagerJungLegrand BticinoSchalkSchneider ElectricSiemensTeleTheben
Installation switch - Do you still need suitable switches to switch your lighting circuits? These should be of high quality, cheap and usable for different requirements? Then you've come to the right place in this eibabo® catalogue. We light up the darkness. Here you will find information about the different switch types, the areas of application and their special features with regard to the installation.What are installation switches?In electrical engineering, an installation switch is a component that disconnects or connects a circuit as part of a switching process or diverts it from one electrical conductor to another. An installation switch is typically constructed electromechanically and consists of one or more movable, current-conducting contact pairs. If a contact pair touches, the current can flow. If the contacts are separated, no current flows. The devices are differentiated according to their technical design, their switching type and their operation. Connection of the electrical conductors:Here in the shop you will find high-quality switches with screw connection terminals or plug-in terminals as well as installation switches for rigid or flexible electrical conductors. Types of switching are, for example, off switches and changeover switches, series switches, cross switches, multiple switches or group switches. If you look at the operation, then there are, for example, rocker switches, toggle switches, rotary switches, step switches, pushbutton switches, pull switches and switches that work with radio or cards.Where are installation switches used?In the low-voltage network, installation switches are mainly used to switch lighting circuits. The installation switches are available either as variants for surface-mounted installation, duct installation, switch panel installation or flush-mounted installation. For flush-mounted variants, there are suitable switch boxes for solid walls and lightweight walls.Which installation switch should I buy?Choosing the right installation switch depends on various factors. These include:What should be switched (light, blinds and so on)?How should the circuit be set up? Which switching conditions are desired?How should the switch be operated (remote control, time switch and so on)?Is the switch exposed to special conditions (humidity, temperature fluctuations)?and some more Below we give you a brief overview of the various switches and circuits. This should help you to be able to select the best switch for your application.How do the individual circuit types differ?At eibabo® we carry installation switches from the switch ranges of all well-known manufacturers. The installation switches are mostly offered as hand-operated switches for a fixed installation. Many technical differences lead to numerous possible applications and a wide selection. Using the example of switching lighting circuits, we distinguish:ON/OFF switchThis is the simplest of the switching types mentioned. Here, a lighting circuit is opened or closed via a switch. They switch one lamp or several lamps connected in series.toggle switchThe toggle switch works similar to the ON/OFF switch. The difference is that you can switch the light from two switching points. Each changeover switch has three terminals and the two switching points are connected to one another by two conductors. With each of the two switches you can connect to one or the other line. The opening or closing of the circuit thus takes place independently of the other changeover switch. Depending on the switch position, the current either flows through one of the two conductors or not at all. This type of switch is used, for example, in long corridors or between two floors.security at nightMany installation switches can be selected with or without a glow control lamp. Variants with orientation light or switch lighting are often possible.cross switchThe cross switch can be seen as an extension of the toggle switch. With the cross switch you can switch the light from more than two switching points. A cross switch is therefore equipped with four connections. In principle, the number of possible cross switches in the lighting circuit is not limited, but the wiring becomes more complex with each switch. As soon as more than three or four switching points are desired, the circuit is better made with a latching switch and buttons.series switchA series switch consists of more than just a rocker switch. With such double switches or multiple switches, you can switch the corresponding number of lighting circuits separately via one control element (e.g. the ceiling lighting and the ambient lighting in the living room).group switchThe group switch works similar to the series switch. This also switches more than one circuit - but according to the either-or principle. In other words, either one lamp or the other lamp lights up. Both circuits can therefore never be switched on at the same time.Installation switch with special equipmentSpecial versions of switches are suitable for all requirements that you place on your project or want to implement. At eibabo® you can choose from a large selection of high-quality installation switches for different purposes:Button for the installation remote controlelectronic switchesremote control switchesSwitches in combination with dimmers and time switchesand so forth Image: Jung 507 U cross rocker switchWhat do the symbols on the installation switches mean?If you look at the front and back of installation switches, you will notice a number of symbols. Some are used to display the current switching status, others provide information on correct installation. Often encountered are:~ - the wavy line (tilde) represents alternating currentN - the capital N denotes the neutral conductorL - the capital L stands for the outer conductor0 / O - the zero / the big O describe the off position1 / I - the one / the capital I symbolize the on position / ON position? / ? - Arrows in the direction of the connector represent inputs, opposite arrows are outputsK - stands for a 'corresponding' connection (to another toggle switch)NF - is the abbreviation for low frequency Depending on the manufacturer, the circuit diagram of the device as well as safety instructions such as the GS symbol or the ÖVE symbol can be shown on the back.What type of protection should I choose for my installation switch?The area of application of an installation switch is also determined by its IP protection class (ingress protection). This indicates how well the device is protected from foreign objects and moisture. Most indoor switches do not have a particularly high level of protection. You will often find the designation 'IP20' on the device. If you are looking for an installation switch for damp rooms or outdoors, please make sure that the device is suitable for the respective location. You can usually find this information in the product description.  Catalogue content:In this eibabo® catalogue Domestic switching devices > Switch you will find items from the following product groups:Item overview:Blind controlCeiling fanCentral plateCloserControl switchDesign coverElectrical installationEnergy saving switchHeating controlHeating emergency switchKey switchNostalgia switchRadio fanRemovable fanReversing switchRocker control switchRocker switchShift knobShutter buttonShutter switchSwitchSwitch control switchSwitch insertSwitch rangeThermostatTitle blockTwilight switchVentilation unitfrom the following manufacturers:Manufacturer overview catalogue Installation switch:BEGA GantenbrinkBerkerBusch JaegerElsoGiraHagerHeliosHHGHuber + Söhne WHDJungLegrand BticinoLegrand SEKOMaicoMertenOBOPehaSchabusSchneider ElectricSiemens

Pressure switch - Would you like to control switching processes in a technical system that are triggered by changes in the pressure of a gaseous or liquid medium? Then you need a pressure switch. Here you can learn a little more about the history, the tasks and the operating principle of pressure switches. Inexpensive and reliable pressure switches for switching valves or pumps are available here in the eibabo® online shop. Choose a model that suits your system from our range.What are pressure switches?Pressure switches are used to automate a pump or compressor. The basic principle of these switching devices is that connected devices:switched on when the pressure falls below a set limitoff when the upper pressure limit is reached Image: Eaton MCSN11-V pressure switchPressure switches have many names. The following terms are very common:Differential pressure switch, pressure limiter, pressure controller, pump relay, water pressure switch, air pressure switch or compressor switchThe devices are used, for example, in liquid tanks or gas tanks in which the filling level or the internal pressure of the medium contained therein is to be monitored. This ensures that certain values are not exceeded or fallen below. Alternatively, when a critical value is reached, switching processes are triggered in order to restore the desired or programmed normal state. A distinction is made between mechanical and electronic pressure switches, which offer individual advantages depending on the desired area of application.The history of the pressure switchIn the past, pumps and compressors were switched on and off mechanically and required constant human intervention. In the early 1930s, August Frede Maschinenfabrik (today: Condor-Werke) developed a simple and functional device that was equipped with a membrane and worked according to a spring principle. This first pressure switch should automate the switching on and off of pumps or compressors. In 1935, the company received the world's first patent for a diaphragm pressure controller for the automatic control of pumps. To this day, Condor-Werke is one of the global market leaders in the development and production of pressure switches.What are the advantages of a pressure switch?A pressure switch allows full automation of the start-up and shut-down process, eliminating the need for human involvement in managing the pump or compressor. An automatic shutdown when the upper pressure limit is reached guarantees the safety of the respective system. If pumps or compressors only work within a certain pressure range due to intelligent switching processes, energy costs can be significantly reduced and resources saved. TIPBe sure to note the installation location and, accordingly, the moisture protection of the pressure switch. In addition, pressure switches are very reliable and durable.The mechanical pressure switchDepending on the design, pressure switches can work mechanically or electronically. Mechanical type devices are more common due to their reliability, durability and simplicity. The mechanical pressure switch can be installed directly on site with minimal effort.NoticeHigh-quality pushbutton switches have non-stick silver-plated contacts, a high-strength diaphragm and fine-tuning capabilities. Especially with cheap goods from the Far East, the lack of these properties can lead to failures and unreliable switching operations. Here in the eibabo® online shop you only get reliable quality goods from well-known brands.The functional principle of a mechanical pressure switch is essentially based on the combination of a membrane with a block of adjustable springs. The pressure of the working medium is transmitted through the diaphragm to the working pressure setting springs by means of nuts or screws. A differential pressure setting spring measures the value of this compression. If the compression of the working pressure setting springs exceeds a certain value due to the pressure of the diaphragm, the differential pressure setting spring opens the contacts in the contact block and the pump or compressor is switched off. When the pressure drops, the tension in the springs relaxes again and the compression decreases. The mains contacts then close again and the connected device is switched on again. Depending on the version of the pressure switch, there may be additional outlets for connecting a pressure gauge and safety valves.The electronic pressure switchAn electronic pressure switch is actually a complete pump controller. As a rule, these devices include elements for soft starting, protection against dry running, as well as ways of setting the upper and lower thresholds of the operating mode of the pump or compressor. The advantages compared to a mechanical pressure switch are the smaller dimensions and the setting principle. Sensitivity adjustment screws are located on the electronic pressure switch body.How do I protect myself from my system running dry?The cause of failures in the operation of pumps or compressors is often the lack of the required working medium in the system. This problem is annoying and affects the reliability of all components. Idling leads to overheating or damage to parts and the associated failure of the entire system. To avoid this, when choosing a pressure switch, please consider the characteristics and allowable ratings for the operation of your pump or compressor. You avoid the danger of idling as follows:Buy a device with dry-running protection. These devices are a bit more expensive, but respond very effectively to pressure drops.Invest in the installation of a controller that not only monitors the pressure. This would, for example, also switch on the pump if the actual values fall below the set target values. How do I choose a pressure switch?When choosing a pressure switch, it is necessary to determine the type of pressure switch, the required functionality and the operating pressure:Should the switch monitor the pressure of liquids or gases?Does the switch have to be able to withstand chemical compounds?In which key figures is the working pressure range?How is the power supply designed for the switch (voltage, number of phases, current)?What sizes are required for the flange connections?What additional components and options are desired? Examples of this would be: start button, thermal relay to protect the electric motor, dry running protection relay for pumps, relief valve to make starting compressors easier and so on. When installing a high-quality pump, please remember that the pressure switch should also be of the same quality. This is the only way to ensure reliable operation. by the wayThe manufacturers of high-quality devices carry out long-term tests with the pressure switches in the laboratory in order to guarantee more than half a million switching operations. Use our detailed search to select your pressure switch. There you can precisely set the parameters of the switch you want and filter accordingly.  Catalogue content:In this eibabo® catalogue Low-voltage industrial components > Pressure switch you will find items from the following product groups:Item overview:Compressor switchCylinder switchDifferential pressure switchPressostatPressure limiterPressure monitoring devicePressure regulatorPressure sensorPressure sensorsPressure switchPressure transducerPressure transmitterTwo-position controllerVacuum monitorVacuum switchfrom the following manufacturers:Manufacturer overview catalogue Pressure switch:Alre-itBaumerBourdon-HaenniCondorDoepkeEatonElsterEndress + HauserHeliosHoneywell FemaIfm ElectronicIpf ElectronicJumoMaicoNE-MARockwellSchneider ElectricSickSMC Deutschland
Lighting control system - By regulating the light intensity, we consciously influence our mood, the way we work or our sleep patterns. An evening for two is much more romantic with dimmed lights, or cooking is much easier if you always have a good view of the pots. Find out here how and with what you can control the brightness in your rooms exactly as you want.The eibabo® technology store offers a very extensive range of items for light control. For example, access our high-quality switches, buttons, potentiometer inserts (generally referred to as dimmers), light sensors, switching modules or components for smart home control. Well-known manufacturers, best quality, fair prices, fast delivery and secure payment are our arguments for shopping in the eibabo® online shop.What are light control systems?Light control systems are traditional or intelligent devices that allow you to control the lighting in a room. Depending on your wishes and needs, there are different types of light control systems available. Probably the simplest example of light control is the classic switch that turns the light on and off. Another option is to switch the light on when movement is detected. A motion detector or a presence detector is used here. But the lighting control can be much more complex and in such cases requires very individual components. And that's exactly what this catalog from the eibabo® online shop is all about.Image: Ledvance DALI PCU lighting control systemWhat types of light control systems are there?In general, there are hardly any limits to the implementation of your lighting control ideas. Depending on your needs, you can simply switch your light on manually, automatically or networked. The more complex the system, the more individual freedom you have to realize your ideas or increase comfort. Even if network systems are more expensive to purchase, they save up to 30% in electricity costs over time thanks to intelligent control management. The following types of light control are possible:Manual light controlManually turning on and off is the most widely used lighting control. It is difficult to save electricity with it. You have to constantly remember to turn on the lights only when you actually need them. The use of economical LEDs can help save on energy costs. Dimming is a slightly more advanced way of controlling room lighting. However, this is also manual. Dimmer switches allow you to dim the lighting to the desired level. This in turn saves a little more electricity.Automatic light controlWith automatic light control, a sensor usually switches the lights on and off. You can specify the criteria according to which this happens and how long such switching cycles last. So you can't forget to turn off the light. To automate outdoor lighting, you may want to install motion sensors. The lighting is then only activated when there is a certain amount of darkness and a person or vehicle is moving in the detection area of the detector. After a certain period of inactivity, the device switches the light off again. Presence detectors or presence sensors are used indoors. Their basic switching principle is comparable to that of motion detectors. These record movements within a room. Presence detectors are ideal for bathrooms, toilets, break rooms and hallways.Networked light controlThe most advanced type of light control is the networked system. This is often part of building automation, but can also be designed as a stand-alone system. Networked lighting systems make it possible to control lighting from computers, multifunction devices, remote controls or smartphones. The prerequisite for this is the connection to a central control unit. Advanced programs can even store data and create usage charts, so you can closely monitor your energy consumption.Basically, we differentiate networked lighting between centralized, wireless or combined light control systems. With the centralized system, all lighting circuits from a room or building come together at a central location. The classic wall switch is replaced by one or more multifunctional pushbutton sensors or touch displays. These allow you to control the light in different ways. This requires an integrated processor that manages the additional functions. Depending on the range of functions of the components and programming, at the touch of a button, for example:call up interesting light scenesdim different lighting groupssynchronize the lighting with the movement of the sunmake switching on and off dependent on the actual brightnessadjust the color of the light sourceGenerate operating hours, consumption and other data through measurement and/or monitoringand so forth An alternative to the centralized solution is the wireless variant. This consists of controllable dimmers and switches that have replaced the traditional standalone switches and dimmers. The wireless system is of particular interest in renovations and retrofits as there are fewer cables to run. The existing installation can usually be built on. The installation is easy, the costs are manageable. The wireless light control can be operated like a centralized system and contain the same programming options. All dimmers and switches are wirelessly connected to the control unit's processor.The advantagesBy adjusting color or intensity, light controls can: Reduce glare; change the atmosphere and mood; make the room function more flexible; reduce energy consumption and increase safety.A combined light control is a mixture of both systems described. Both wireless and wired devices are included in a system and exchange information with each other. This option is often implemented when expanding central systems. All of the systems mentioned offer the user comprehensive and individual comfort and are mostly intuitive and easy to manage.What are the requirements for a networked lighting control system?The individual components of a lighting control system (controllers, ballasts, drivers and light sources) must be compatible with one another to ensure proper operation of the system. This means: The components must communicate in order to be able to execute the control strategy. This so-called interoperability depends on the control method or the protocol. NoticeA protocol is a set of rules that defines the behavior of components in a system in a specific language. Examples of well-known and widespread protocols include the Digital Addressable Lighting Interface (DALI) and ZigBee. All controllers must be designed for the same protocol to ensure good interoperability. The individual protocols differ with regard to the software structure. There are:open or standardized protocols that are available and usable for all manufacturersProtocols that represent an optimized solution for only one manufacturer and bind the user to this manufacturer for future maintenance, changes or extensionsa combination of both; i.e. an open protocol that is tailored to specific providers or a provider-specific protocol that is made available to other providers through licensing If you want to integrate components with different protocols, this is possible by using a gateway (hardware or software). In addition, various applications and software for building automation support the implementation of light control systems. With this you can for example:discover devicesAssign specific control points to lighting zonesProgram scenarios for lighting zonesCalibrate sensors and set actuatorsmonitor checkpointsIssue service warnings and alarmsRecord energy consumption and display, log, evaluate and back up other dataCreate users and access levels   Catalogue content:In this eibabo® catalogue Light control > Lighting control system component you will find items from the following product groups:Item overview:Ambient lightCentral controlComfortableControl elementDALI unitHall lightingInterior lightInterior lightsLight control deviceLight line systemLight managementLight meterLightingLighting controlMini sensorMotion detectorMotion sensorMounting frameMounting rail lightRadio linkRain gaugeRotary dimmerSensorsSISignal converterSmartphone controlTwilight sensorUniversal dimmerWarehouse lightingfrom the following manufacturers:Manufacturer overview catalogue Lighting control system:ABBArcliteBarthelmeBEGA GantenbrinkBrumbergBusch JaegerCeagDoepkeEberleEltakoEVNFinderFischerGiraHagerHeraHoubenIDVJungLEDVANCENobileOpple LightingPhilips LichtPräzisaRadiumRegioluxRidi-LeuchtenRZBSchalkSchmitz-LeuchtenSchneider ElectricSignify PLSSitecoSLVThebenTriluxZumtobel

Dimmers - Would you like to use dimmers in the house, apartment or at work? Would you like to know what to look out for when buying a dimmer? Can dimmers really save electricity? Find out here which dimmer is the right one for your application.When we dim our living room lights in the evening, something magical happens. The brightness decreases, the colors become softer and the atmosphere in the room becomes cozier. This change has a tremendous effect on our well-being and mood. Dimming is not only easy on the eyes, it also has a positive effect on our bodies. After a busy day, we can relax and let the stress gradually fall off our shoulders. In addition, we can save electricity by dimming light bulbs and LED lamps. In this way, we contribute to reducing CO2 emissions and protecting the environment.What should you consider before buying a dimmer?There are a few things to consider when buying a dimmer. We have summarized the most important points for you:What kind of dimmer do you need?Should the dimmer be universal or suitable for a specific light source?What power supply is required?How should the dimmer be operated?What load should the dimmer be rated for? (the information can be found on the device)Which additional functions are required? (interfaces)Does the price play a decisive role?and some more Image: Berker 85422100 universal touch dimmer, 2-foldTypes of dimmers and their usesDimmers are thyristor controllers or triac controllers for controlling the brightness of incandescent lamps, lights or transformers for low-voltage halogen lamps. When selecting a suitable dimmer, the type of light source, the power supply and the electrical voltage must be taken into account. There are different dimmers, which are suitable for different applications. The best known are universal dimmers, trailing edge dimmers and leading edge dimmers. All reduce the voltage to dim the light. But there are differences in how they work. TIP:Most lamps are marked with a label that provides information about their dimmability. You will find the symbol of a light bulb or a halogen spotlight on many light sources, followed by the information 'RL' or 'RC'. What do these two abbreviations mean and what are the advantages and disadvantages?Trailing edge dimming (RL):Trailing edge dimming is the most commonly used method of dimming lamps. Here, the current of the illuminant is interrupted at regular intervals, so that the light repeatedly goes out briefly and then comes on again. The interruption in the current flow causes the light to flicker slightly. This flickering is barely perceptible to the human eye.Advantages:Less heat lossNo impairment of the mains voltageEasy to implement Disadvantages:Flickering of the light, which can be annoying for some peopleLimited dimmability, otherwise the light flickers too much Leading edge dimming (RC):With phase angle dimming, the current flow is interrupted at the beginning and end of each switching period. As a result, there is no direct regulation of the current flow and there is no flickering of the light. Leading edge dimming is therefore particularly suitable for sensitive applications where uniform light is important. This is the case, for example, in hospitals or galleries.Advantages:No flickering of the light because the current flow is not interruptedMore even light image than with RL dimming Disadvantages:Higher losses due to heat developmentImpairment of the mains voltage with strong dimming Dimming LEDsA dimmable LED lamp is always marked as 'dimmable'. You can usually find the information on the packaging or in the product description. If you cannot find any indication of dimmability, the LED cannot be dimmed.You can use both RC technology and RL technology to dim LEDs. Please judge for yourself which one is the right one for you. Alternatively, you can use dimmers with pulse width modulation. This is the most commonly used variant for dimming LEDs. With pulse width modulation, the current flow is periodically interrupted for a specific interval. As a result, the longer the OFF interval, the less bright the LED will shine.What options are there for operating dimmers?There are several ways you can adjust the brightness on your dimmer. Most models have a dial. Other models have buttons or a touch field. The brightness is changed here, for example, by pressing the UP and DOWN buttons. With a remote touch dimmer, a short touch switches the dimmer on and off, a longer touch impulse causes a change in brightness. There is also the option of controlling with a control voltage. Almost every switch manufacturer has such models in their switch range.Tips for using dimmersDimmers are often used in living rooms to adapt the lighting to the situation at hand. For example, you can set the mood at a dinner party with dimmed lights or turn the lights down completely for a romantic evening for two. Dimmers are also very popular in bedrooms, as they slowly ease the transition to sleep. Dimmers can also be useful in wellness areas such as bathrooms or saunas. For example, when entering the sauna, the light can be dimmed down to promote relaxation. Dimmers can also be used in the aquarium. This allows the lighting to simulate natural daylight. This is for the well-being of the fish. Dimmers at the workplace significantly reduce direct glare and disruptive reflections on the screen. This can help you concentrate better and work without interruption.Dimming in the KNX building managementThe KNX building management is a complex system that enables the automation and control of light, heating and air conditioning in a house or apartment. A central function in the KNX building management is the integration of dimmers, which enable the brightness to be regulated. Dimming actuators are usually used for this in conjunction with pushbutton sensors or multiple operating devices. These replace conventional dimmers. For more information, we recommend our 'Dimming actuators' catalogue.What do the letters 'R - L - C' on a dimmer mean?The letter 'R' on a dimmer means it is suitable for the resistive loads of incandescent lamps, halogen lamps and the like. The 'L', on the other hand, stands for inductive loads from low-voltage lamps with a conventional transformer. And 'C' means capacitive loads from low-voltage lamps with electronic transformers.  Catalogue content:In this eibabo® catalogue Domestic switching devices > Dimmer you will find items from the following product groups:Item overview:Additional moduleAwning controlBlind controlBrightness sensorControl devicesCord switchDimmer moduleDimmtronicEnergy efficientExtensionFlush-mounted boxFront buttonGroup controlIncremental encoderLight controllerLight emitting diodeLightbulbsLighting controlOutdoor spotlightPatio heaterPressure dimmerRadio dimmerRotary dimmerSerial dimmerSpeed controller insertUniversal dimmerUniversal dimming insertWeather stationfrom the following manufacturers:Manufacturer overview catalogue Dimmers:BachmannBerkerBusch JaegerDoepkeElsoEltakoEthermaFinderGiraGrotheHagerHeraJungLEDVANCELegrand BticinoMertenPehaRademacherSchalkScharnberger+Has.Schneider ElectricSchultzeSiemensTheben
Front element indicator lamp - Indicator lights are optical information and warning signals that are used in both industrial and private areas. Your task is as simple as it is unmistakable. With a simple ON and OFF display of a light bulb, the current operating status can be displayed and information about the functionality can be displayed. The classic example are the light signals of the control panel of an industrial plant. There you can see red, yellow, blue or green lights, which provide the operator with all the important information to monitor the condition of his machine. The door opening buttons on the bus or other public transport are also a kind of indicator light.
