iCAN Interfaces

iLight manufactures a range of integration tools to assist with the construction and configuration of the iCAN network and for interfacing with external system components.

 

EG-1

Ethernet Gateway
The Ethernet Gateway to iCAN network provides connection between an iCAN network and an Ethernet LAN. This allows a user to control and configure the iLight system using iCANsoft
on a LAN network PC rather than by connecting directly into the network.

Where a wireless LAN is in place (or by connecting a wireless router into the EG-1) the user can access the network with a Wi-Fi enabled PC, giving freedom of movement during
commissioning.

The Ethernet Gateway also facilitates connection to the internet when used with iCANsoft, a firewall, ISP and a Ethernet hub,
this then enables remote connection for controlling, programming and obtaining diagnostics of the lighting control system. When appropriately configured, the device can be used as a multiway router to extend the iCAN network.

  • Configurable IP address
  • Multiway Router setting
  • Facilitates internet and Wi-Fi LAN connection into the iCAN network
  • Dimensions: 240 x 220 x 80mm, 3 Kg
  

SI-1

System Integrator Node
The System Integrator Node allows control of a wide range of third party equipment through the iLight user interfaces including audio systems, TVs, projectors, blinds, curtains, heating and
HVAC systems, security & fire alarms, surveillance and CCTV.The SI-1 converts iLight protocol into third party device compatible RS232 protocol enabling a sequence of commands to start from the touch of a button. For example in a home cinema - lights dim, blinds close, audio system turns on, screen opens, projector
turns on and the DVD starts.

  • RS232 port via 9 pin female D type connection at 9600 baud
  • 1 x iCAN Bus data connection via screw terminals
  • Status LEDs
  • 20 programmable serial commands - triggered from iCAN network
  • 8 sequences each with a maximum of 30 serial commands with up to 8 characters each
  • Dimensions: 23 x 42 x 96mm

 

      

RI

Relay Interface
The Relay Interface provides a versatile interface between iCAN and other control systems. The unit is fully configurable and may be programmed to perform many functions including light level sensors, curtain or blind control, AV and presentation equipment or contactors for heavier power applications.

  • 8 inputs - programmable as analogue or digital
  • Digital inputs used for volt free switches or motion detectors
  • Analogue inputs to any 0-10V signal
  • 8 switch outputs for LED indication
  • 8 sequences with up to 30 steps per sequence
  • Audio Visual RS485 port
  • Dimensions: 240 x 220 x 80mm, 3 Kg
  

SCD24

DMX Controller
The SCD24 is a 24 channel DMX source controller. It is designed to provide scene set dimming for any DMX512 controlled load
via iCAN.

  • DMX source controller
  • 24 channels.
  • 128 scene memory
  • iCAN™ network inputs
  • Dimensions: 240 x 220 x 80mm, 3 Kg

 

 

      

SCBN

iCAN Bridge

  • iCAN to iCAN bridge
  • Configurable as a floor controller for multi-floor applications
  • Unit programmable with scripting software (programmable
    logic control)
  • Message filtering and isolation for large networks
  • Dimensions: 240 x 220 x 80mm, 3 Kg
  

UIG

Universal Interface
The UIG allows other items such as partition switches or PE cells to provide inputs to the iCAN network. When configured for a room join, moving the partition will open or close a magnetic proximity switch contact (not included) and automatically re-program the function of the control panels within the room.

  • 4 0-10V analogue inputs for volt free switches or motion detectors
  • 4 volt free contact closure inputs
  • 4 switch outputs for LED indication
  • 1 dedicated photocell input
  • 8 sequences with up to 30 steps per sequence
  • Fits standard UK style double gang 35mm deep back box

 

        
UIM

Mini UIG
The Mini UIG also allows other items to provide inputs to the iCAN network and is often used with faders and custom switches.

  • 6 inputs which each can be individually configured as 0-10V analogue, digital or photoelectric cell inputs
  • 8 sequences with up to 30 steps per sequence
  • Only 42mm Ø so easily fits in European and UK junction / back boxes
  

FROG BOX

Frog Box
The Frog Box is a 19” rack mountable unit designed to play back dynamic DMX controlled effects such as colour changing LEDS
or moving lighting fixtures.

  • 19” rack mounted DMX replay unit
  • 5 memory sequences, each memory sequence can contain up to 990 memories
  • 2 DMX universes (1024 channels), MIDI, SMPTE ports, Ethernet, DMX in, keyboard, video and mouse connections
  • iCANnet™ network port
  • Dimensions: 88 x 483 x 350mm, 4.5 Kg
