The Cairns Performing Arts Centre opened on 15 December 2018, providing a greatly enhanced audience experience and a state-of-the-art facility that supports local performers. Due to the nature of the project, intricate and complex lighting control was required for the building, which was made easy by SyncWise implementing a KNX system. The entire lighting is controlled via an intelligent lighting control system based on KNX. Control of the lighting is done by a combination of touch panels, Ipads, local motion sensors, PE cells, and general switches.
