IMC-300P™
Intelligent Triple Motor Controller 120VAC
(IMC-301P 240VAC) (picture to be provided)
The Intelligent Motor Controller
IMC-300P™ is a state-of-the art device designed to control up to
three AC motors
such as those used in drapery or curtain applications. This Controller
is designed to be centrally installed within an outlet or junction box
to control remotely one to three bi-directional drapery or blind
motors. A built-in
microprocessor enables the system to be controlled from
any home automation system. Unique to the IMC-300™
is its communication and control advantages. The IMC-300™
implements communication standards adopted by the computer
industry (rather than proprietary standards) that allow the device to be
interconnected with up to 65,025
distinct IMC-1XX family controllers on the Converging Systems
"CS" bus. Since the IMC-300P controller has only one CS
bus connector integrated onto the device, the controller should be
daisy-chained to the end of the CS bus when additional motor controllers
are linked together. These devices can be interconnected and controlled
from virtually any distance (up to 4000 feet) using an inexpensive,
low-voltage communication bus (using standard CAT5 or CAT3 wiring)! The IMC-300™ System is typically deployed in residential or commercial locations to control vertical or horizontal draperies and blinds. A breakthrough in technology allows a much simpler wiring topology to be used (daisy-chain versus home-runs for each device) thereby eliminating the time and expense of more-costly dedicated home runs of low and sometimes high-voltage wiring often required by competitive systems. In fact even the largest system can be installed without repeaters or separate zone-type limitations. This
is the favored choice among vendors already experienced with
“intelligent” drapery controllers. The ability to control a system
using whatever means the homeowner desires is often a challenge.
The IMC-300P™ allows control from as simple a device as a wall
keypad, to more flexible devices including IR remotes, wireless (RF),
and standard wall keypad devices, as well as more common low-voltage and
dry–type switched contacts. .
