Ecosystem as a technology is very <br />powerful, and still supported by Lutron, but your front -end version is powered by a PDA, and is no longer <br />supported by Lutron. Fortunately, your PDA is still in working order. However, if it fails, you will not be able to <br />make changes to any of the functions of the lighting system. <br /> This ecosystem communication requires that every ballast in your building have its own unique identifier, or <br />"address". When you replace a ballast, that ballast needs to be given a new address. This is the biggest issue <br />that you faced recently. Therefore, every new ballast will need to be programed into the system. Again, if <br />your PDA is no longer working you cannot fix that particular light. <br /> <br />Challenges moving to an LED lighting system from you current Ecosystem with this system. The current <br />Ecosystem is dedicated to using the old PDA technology and in its current state not able to convert to LED <br />lighting technology without major wiring modifications. <br /> <br />Proposed Scope of Work <br />We are proposing a two-step phased upgrade program. <br />Phase One: We are proposing to remove the existing Ecosystem and replace it with a Lutron Vive system. <br />Vive is a simple, flexible, and scalable solution for projects that demand an intelligent system to provide basic <br />energy savings and lighting control strategies. It would require some electrical rewiring which would be <br />performed by a licensed Electrical contractor; Bryant–Durham Services. Paratus Services Group would be <br />responsible for the payment to Bryant-Durham Services for the services they perform on this project. They <br />are familiar with your system and have previously completed work at this location. The Vive solution offers <br />the least evasive way to prepare the current systems for the goal of converting to LED lighting. Vive provides: <br /> Energy and system monitoring <br /> High performance dimming <br /> Demand response load shed. <br /> Occupancy and daylight sensors <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 8CF67996-515A-45D8-B2DD-0F58229EF6A1
