About

Intense Beam

Read full description

The Beam, from Intense Lighting, gives users the ability to wirelessly control the beam and intensity on Intense luminaires through wireless BLE technology. The Beam dynamically changes beam angles through the unique lensing system that can be adjusted from 12° to 50° without having to physically change out the optics. You can also wirelessly control the dimming from 0 to 100%, providing architectural, smooth dimming down to .1%. Additionally, the Beam app allows users to save luminaire settings after commissioning and provides the option of saving the settings to the cloud for future reference through a password protected Leviton cloud-based system. Simple and easy to use, the Beam gives users the flexibility of individual fixture control via Bluetooth enabled wireless devices.

Features
Read full description

HP Commercial PCs equipped with HP Sure Admin feature can manage access to firmware, using public/private key pair-based security. This feature provides increased security over a typical password-based solution. While this feature is seamless when an administrator is managing firmware remotely, there are cases when local IT persons (or users) need to authenticate their identities to the firmware (e.g., to access the BIOS F10 Setup). In such use cases, the firmware will display a QR code, which the local IT person can scan with HP Sure Admin Mobile application for generating a one-time PIN that can be entered into the firmware for user authentication.
