Will the Dali protocol survive in the age of the ‘internet of things?’ Lux asked five experts to debate the future of the protocol. From left: Tad Trylski, Wayne Howell, Sam Woodward, David Mooney and Andrew Glossop Calm down everybody, Dali is not dead yet. That was the consensus in a discussion on the future of the lighting control protocol at   Lux 's Smart Lighting Controls Europe 2015 conference. Dali continues to evolve, resolve its issues and respond to the needs of the lighting industry.

The project involved a complete re-design of the lighting and the addition of bespoke fittings, in addition to the rewiring and installation of lighting controls throughout the ancient building. CES are experts in design and installation in listed buildings, particularly ecclesiastical and worked closely with Megaman to come up with a scheme that was sympathetic to the surroundings but that also provided the improved light levels whilst saving energy. St Johns is a large fourteenth-century church with a wooden pulpit, made for St Margaret's, Westminster, in 1682 and brought here in 1800.
