Keeping Up with Technologies - ABT Wireless Zone Control

ABT Wireless Zone Control

We found a gadget that is great for controlling which outdoor lights you want to turn on.  Instead of turning on all the landscape lights with a light switch, you can actually divide the lighting into zones. .. three zones to be exact.  And you don’t have to install another transformer to do it!
ABT Wireless (www.abtwireless.com) has created Zone Control .  The Zone Control is connected to your transformer* dividing the lighting areas.  The wireless remote is then programmed to the three zones.

Wireless remote?  Yes! 

This system also has a key fob wireless remote available.  It is about the same size as the remote you use for your car.  The wireless system is much more convenient and cost effective than wiring in more light switches.



So why do I want to divide my lights into zones?  We are so glad you asked! 


You can turn on only the lights you need to use which helps you save money on your energy bills.
-Keep on those lights that add safety and security to your home. 
-Turn on the lights around the pool or patio when those are in use. 
-And, finally, you can turn on and off the lights that highlight the perimeter of your property that are best for when you entertain.
Of course, these are only suggestions.  Your set up requirements may vary.
Most times Zone Control can be connected to an existing transformer, but a thorough system check is recommended before making any additions or changes to your landscape lighting system.

From time to time we will come across technologies that we just have to share!  Stay tuned for more Keeping Up with Technologies posts in the future.


ABT Wireless is a part of the Secure Wireless family of companies.  ABT landscape controls can only be purchased through authorized dealers for contractors.
