Towards the long Line 21 passing through sections of complicated geological conditions, over ten million lamps and equipment should be prepared. To construct a smart lighting engineering of rail transit at such a level with superior difficulties, it is necessary to meet extremely high requirements in communication stability and system openness.

In line with the design principle of adapting measures to local conditions and comprehensively considering various factors, GVS install scene panels not only at smart control terminals of metro equipment, but at doors of metro control rooms, which is convenient for metro staff to adjust light brightness manually in specific areas under special circumstances.
