Overview
This unit provides a very versatile interface between an iLumin
system and other control systems. It has eight inputs, which may
be programmed to be either digital or analog. The unit also has eight
volt-free mains rated low power relays. These allow a wide range of
external equipment to be controlled. All inputs and outputs are fully
programmable as to their function. In addition to the control inputs/
outputs there are eight LED output drives for visual feedback of
switch activity. As well as the essential connections to the iLumin
network, there are also terminals provided for connection to an
RS485 system.
This interface allows the iLumin network to control other systems
and other systems to communicate with the iLumin network. The
unit is fully configurable and may be programmed to perform many
functions, including curtain or blind control, the control of screens,
A/V, and other presentation equipment or controlling contactors for
heavier power applications. With the control inputs set to analog
mode, 0-10V sources can be programmed to control system
functions from rotary and linear variable resistors. The unit could also
be programmed such that system sequences could be activated by
a motion detector or any other device on the iLumin network. The
adaptability and versatility of this product make it an essential item
in larger, more sophisticated venues where more than just lighting
control is required.
