Low Voltage Controls – Busline: I•CON™

I•CON
Low Voltage Switching / Addressable Control on a Two-Way Communication Bus

INTRODUCTION
The I•CON is a logic-based, soft-managed system, utilizing state-of-the-art bus line technology for control of motorized shading. Each Intelligent Motor (IM) may be programmed with up to 7 unique addresses. There are 255 unique addresses available. All I•CON (Intelligent Motor Control System™) components are UL recognized and systems tested.

 

SUMMARY
MechoShade's ® Intelligent Motor Control System™/2 (I•CON) is a 2-way communicating software busline control system that is ideal for medium, large and complex networks. The major advantages of the I•CON system are simplicity, exceptional flexibility and lower installation costs, making the I•CON the ideal solution for solar tracking and/or building management system integration for base building and multi-tenant Class A office building projects where floor layouts frequently change. Also, Audio/ Visual centers and/or conference rooms with movable walls resulting constant changes in shade configuration.

 

 

FEATURES

  • Low cost installation. Daisy chain wiring of line voltage and low voltage circuits.
  • Software programmable via the hand-held programmer or PC.
  • Two (2) motor Bus Interface (BI).
  • Scaleable, expandable design.
  • Low cost wiring design offers totally flexible free topology for lower cost installation.
  • A choice of 3 switching control networks: Low cost Local Zone standard switching, more expensive Wide Zone intelligent switching, which has greater capabilities, and the ability to mix them to form a Local/Wide Zone network.
  • MID-WINDOW ALIGNMENT: 6 aligned positions with 4 intermediate auto or custom stop positions at the touch of a button. Plus, assured alignment from top down or bottom up with the ability to compensate for the variance between gravity drop (down) and lifting against gravity (up).
  • Two-way communication.
  • MULTI-LEVEL CONTROL: Multi-layer, overlapping control zones, groups and sub groups.
  • Program / reprogramming switching via address tables, software access.
  • Two modes of operation; normal and uniform mode.
    • Normal Mode: shades may be stopped anywhere on the window.
    • Uniform Mode: shades may only be stopped at pre-selected stop positions offering uniform alignment for uniformity of outside building appearance and inside consistancy.
  • No rewiring required. Bus line software management.
  • Reconfigure switching without rewiring.
Reprogram without scaffoldiing. The hand-held programmer can access any motor or BI in the system via RJ port on any Wide Zone switch.
