Crestron part number GLS-LCCT
The Crestron GLS-LCCT SolarSync sensor measures the true colour temperature and intensity of natural sunlight, so indoor lighting can be regulated to match the daylight outside. It is IP67 rated for rooftop and other outdoor locations, also suits indoor use, and connects to a Crestron lighting control system over Cresnet.

About the Crestron GLS-LCCT
A single SolarSync sensor mounted on a building's roof measures the correlated colour temperature (CCT) and illuminance of the natural daylight. It reports CCT and lux consistent with CIE 1931, and also reports RGB and HSV values so the detected colour can be recreated. The range is 2,000K to 25,000K and 0 to 100,000 lux, with a 360° semispherical field of view.
The sensor is lifetime-calibrated, with no drift over time or temperature, and it self-heats to prevent snow and ice building up. It takes 24 VDC from the Cresnet bus, with a Cresnet power usage of 5 W, and consumes 70 mW typically or up to 4.9 W when self-heating. An attached 0.91 m cable with four colour-coded flying leads connects it to the Cresnet network.
The white PTFE housing has an acrylic diffused dome and is rated IP67 per IEC/EN 60529, dust tight and waterproof, for -20°C to 85°C. It mounts to an electrical junction box or enclosure (not included) through a 1/2 in. conduit knockout, stands 71 mm high with a 69 mm diameter, and protrudes 47 mm from the mounting surface.

Questions about the Crestron GLS-LCCT
What is the Crestron GLS-LCCT?
It is the SolarSync Outdoor Daylight and Colour Temperature Sensor. It measures the true colour temperature and intensity of natural sunlight or any other light source, so a Crestron lighting control system can regulate indoor lighting to match the actual daylight outdoors. It connects over Cresnet.
Where does the GLS-LCCT go?
It is IP67 rated for rooftop and other outdoor locations, and a single sensor on a building's roof measures the daylight for that building. It is also suitable for a range of indoor applications. It mounts to an electrical junction box or enclosure, not included, through a 1/2 in. conduit knockout.
What does the GLS-LCCT measure and report?
It measures correlated colour temperature from 2,000K to 25,000K and illuminance from 0 to 100,000 lux, reporting both consistent with CIE 1931. It also reports RGB and HSV values so the detected colour can be recreated. The field of view is 360° semispherical.
How does the sensor cope with snow and ice?
It is self-heating to prevent snow and ice building up, and it is IP67 rated, dust tight and waterproof, for -20°C to 85°C. Power consumption is 70 mW typical, rising to a maximum of 4.9 W when the self-heating is running.
How does the GLS-LCCT connect to the control system?
It connects to a Crestron lighting control system over Cresnet, working in Cresnet slave mode, and takes 24 VDC power from the Cresnet bus with a Cresnet power usage of 5 W. An attached 0.91 m (3 ft) cable with four colour-coded flying leads makes the connection.
How much is the Crestron GLS-LCCT?
Crestron asks its dealers to give the price of the GLS-LCCT directly rather than publish it online. Add it to your quote list and we will send you a written quote, with delivery, and installation and programming if you need them.
Can 1Install supply, install and programme the GLS-LCCT?
Yes. 1Install is an authorised Crestron Elite Partner with offices in Skerries, Co. Dublin and Cork. We can supply the GLS-LCCT on its own, or install, set up and programme it as part of your system. Installation visits are €440 for 4 hours or €880 for a full day, plus VAT and travel.
Does the GLS-LCCT come with a warranty?
Yes. Everything we supply is new, genuine Crestron with Crestron's standard warranty. If the GLS-LCCT develops a fault, contact us and we will handle the claim with Crestron. If we installed it, our workmanship is guaranteed for the lifetime of the system.
Is the GLS-LCCT in stock?
We order Crestron for each quote, so availability depends on Crestron's stock at the time. We check it before we quote and put the expected delivery date on your quote, so you know where you stand before you pay.
Can I buy the GLS-LCCT without installation?
Yes. We supply Crestron to end users, with or without installation. Like most Crestron devices of this type, it needs setting up or programming before it works in a system, and we can quote for that too.
