Worthington Distribution and Richard Scholl will be at the ISC West in Las Vegas on Wednesday and Thursday. He will be handing out our new 2012 catalog in the HAI (18130), Lutron (15133), and Dakota Alert (20127) booths.

Our first Worthington University in 2012 has been scheduled for May 7 – 11, 2012. For 2012, Worthington University has been re-written and expanded from 4 days to 5. As always, our objective is to give the most complete hands-on training possible. We felt the only way to keep the same level of training and educate students on their complete opportunity was to extend the class to five days.

Here is a quick overview of the session:

May 7 – 11, 2012
8:00AM – 8:00PM Monday: Audio/Video/Communication
8:00AM – 8:00PM Tuesday: Security/CCTV
8:00AM – 8:00PM Wednesday: Lighting
8:00AM – 8:00PM Thursday: HAI
8:00AM – 12:00 Friday: Wiring and New Business Opportunities

As always, Worthington Distribution has worked hard to keep the cost of Worthington University as reasonable as possible. Even though we are extending class to 5 days we are able to keep the cost at $99 per company.

Both of these occupancy sensors are a great choice for specialized applications where it would not be desirable to have the lights turned OFF by an occupant utilizing the space. Applications include public restrooms, school restrooms, recreational rooms and mechanical rooms. Controllable load types include incandescent, fluorescent, and low-voltage lighting with electronic or magnetic ballasts.

ODS10-IQ
The ODS10-IQ uses passive infrared (PIR) detection technology to monitor a room for occupancy.

OSSMT
The OSSMT is a dual technology coocpancy sensor, using both PIR and ultrasonic sensors. The combination provides maximum sensitivity and range in difficult spaces with irregular shaped rooms and partitions that can block the PIR field-of-view. A pair of U/S sensors will detect Doppler shifts caused by motion in a space preventing false OFF.

Worthington Distribution will be holding an “Integrating Z-Wave and ZigBee Locks With HAI Controllers” class at EHX in Orlando.

The session will be held at Electronic House Expo in Orlando, Florida on Thursday, March 15 from 11:30am-1:00pm in Room 330C.

HAI OmniPro II, Lumina Pro, Omni IIe, and Lumina all now support Z-Wave and ZigBee communicating locks. Worthington Distribution, HAI’s largest distributor, will be conducting a training on integrating locks from Baldwin, Kwikset, Schlage and Yale. The session will cover both Z-Wave and ZigBee technology, as well as the correct installation techniques. Each manufacture’s lock will be on display and integrated with an HAI OmniPro II.

The Worthington Distribution Test Lab received a valuable test instrument when John Reider of Intellipower sent a state-of-the-art Captain Morgan neon light. “So many dealers are worried about compact florescent and LED lamps, nobody is testing neon loads,” says Reider. “I just wanted to make certain that neon lighting receives adequate testing as well.”

This light will remain a permanent fixture in the lab not only because it is cool, but because Tom has been told it can’t come home!

Thanks John, it’s awesome!
