Software

iCANsoft is iLight’s application software. It allows users to set up, configure, programme and monitor the iCAN system. It’s intuitive, wizard based format has been especially designed to provide simple, easy to follow on screen help functions that guide systems integrators, electrical contractors and end users through the programming process.

There are 3 principle views within the software

Programming ConfiguringMonitoring

Programming – Network Explorer

This view provides a physical view of the iCAN network and all devices connected to it. Intuitive wizards allow quick and easy set up of the iCAN system. Components can be added easily via through drop down menus or drag and drop. It is also possible to name and configure the devices.

Offline programming options allow engineers to set up the networks off site, greatly reducing onsite programming time. Once on site, the engineers can search for the network components and identify all devices in the installation. Engineers can then “talk” to the devices and make any changes if required.

 

 

 

Configuring – Area Explorer

Area Explorer is the virtual view of the network. In this view it is possible to create up to 255 areas within a single network segment. In a hotel for example these areas might include the lobby, reception, ballroom, and the restaurant. Using iCANsoft you can name these areas logically so they are easy to identify and program.

Once areas have been named, devices can be easily assigned to them by dragging and dropping them into the relevant areas. Users can then use the programming wizards to select preset scenes, set levels and fade time, configure room joins and much more.

 

 

Monitoring - Network Monitor

iCANsoft’s monitoring options are an invaluable tool for larger iCAN systems. They provide maintenance staff and commissioning engineers with a comprehensive diagnostics package for managing the system.

Network monitor can be used to identify devices on the network, log and record network traffic, identifying system usage, help monitor lamp life and identify network faults.
