EC Protocol (Easy & Convenient): Innovation in the field of smart home
The EC (Easy & Convenient) protocol is a revolutionary approach to building networks in smart homes. Combining fast deployment, low power consumption and direct remote control, it is efficient and flexible.
Quick network building
The EC protocol provides automatic network creation, including layer 2 pairing, device discovery and configuration. This approach allows you to quickly set up smart networks at home.
Ultra-low power consumption
Ultra-low power consumption is one of the key characteristics of the EC protocol. It supports loads as low as 5W and does not require a neutral wire, making it an energy-efficient solution for smart homes.
Signal relay transmission
The EC protocol uses a network design based on the Zigbee standard, which ensures reliable data transmission. Support for 2-level routing signal relay greatly expands the signal coverage area.
Direct remote control
Switches and remote controls can communicate directly without the need for a gateway. This provides ease of use and increases the flexibility of smart home control.
Basic algorithm of the EC protocol
The EC protocol is equipped with algorithms for time synchronization, broadcast transmission, message flood prevention and optimal path. These features ensure stable and efficient network operation in various conditions.
EC Gateway
EC Gateway is a coordinator with a WIFI module, providing support for the EC protocol and the coexistence of several gateways. It can connect up to 60 additional devices, providing system scalability and flexibility.
EC Switches
EC Switches such as the LIVOLO M7 series offer a variety of types and functions, including customizable initial state, remote control use and signal quality monitoring. They support lamp power above 5 W and ensure reliable system operation.
Point-to-point control
The EC control protocol allows smart switches to be separated from the gateway and controlled directly using a remote control. At the same time, more complex control scenarios can be implemented through the gateway, making the system even more flexible.
The EC protocol represents an important step in the development of smart homes, providing simplicity, efficiency and ease of use. Its flexibility and functionality make it an attractive choice for modern homes and offices.
