Local Control Unit (LCU)

The ‘Local Control Units’ are designed for smart control applications in both large and small buildings, such as hotels, commercial buildings, homes and apartments. The LCU316 operates as a stand-alone system, whilst the LCU316N is part of a network of controllers, using TCP/IP communications link. The LCU316N is supported by a comprehensive library of software modules for a broad range of applications, ranging from simple to more complex ‘tasks’. The customised LCU control software has been developed for more specialised control applications and to enable installers to configure controller functionalities on site. The LCU316N provides non-volatile storage of configuration data, which can be retrieved for the purpose of editing and reprogramming. For special cases in stand-alone applications, the LCU optionally provides non-volatile storage of events, time and date stamped using an on-board clock/calendar. Event information is available on demand.

Features

Integrated controller that can operate as a stand alone system or as part of a TCP/IP network.

RON bus communication to peripheral devices such as wall switch plates, relays, mains dimmers and 0-10V dimming.

Direct ‘low-level’ (5V logic) IO ports for local interface (control panel switches & indicators, PIR occupancy sensing, door switches, relays, etc.).

Support for up to 16 uniquely addressed switch plates of up to four buttons each for a total of 64 individual buttons.

System is scalable by adding RON devices and external IO ports.

Internal real time clock/calendar for control of lighting time schedules.

CE & FCC Compliant.

Software Features

Simple to use and configurable installer application software called HA2 which is configurable with a laptop.

Lighting control including soft light control with pre-sets and scenes.

Supports highly customized applications.
