“The hotel wanted a full-color solution, due to the massive size of the area—more than 50,000 square feet of outdoor space wedged between nine separate buildings—our team wanted a wireless solution that would work with repeaters.A colorful, flexible solution for the pools and gardens.
Lighting for the palm groves of the pool decks and event lawns and the 60-foot twisting water slide. Dyna Accent Mini is a compact, high-power LED floodlight that fits in the tightest spaces. It features an internal 100-240 + 277VAC power supply and an onboard DMX+RDM driver. Each unit carries Acclaim’s Aria wireless DMX technology inside.
The small, lightweight fixtures were mounted on palm tree rings throughout the resort grounds, providing full RGBW color. The tree rings were sized for 16.25” to 21.75” tree diameters and were used to brighten the renovated event lawn, the new Saguaro Pool, the renovated Paradise Pool, and the entry drive.
Dyna Accent Mini can be individually addressed and is adjustable to allow fixtures to be aimed, with an option for white light for emergency lighting. The primary lighting preset for the “Biltmore Blue” was the only automated lighting preset for dusk-to-dawn operation. Thirty presets were programmed for static colors of the rainbow (plus pink) with several color combinations, such as red, white, and blue, cool color pallets, and warm color pallets.
Ground stake mounted Acclaim fixtures were also specified to uplight the various Frank Lloyd Wright-designed “sprite” sculptures which populated the raised planters in the Paradise Courtyard. These were controlled wirelessly from the Paradise Pool system using repeaters and programmed to be a warm apricot color for most presets.
