ApplicationsFeaturesSpecificationsProduct DetailsDatasheets

 

The i-PoRT-C4p™ Four Port Contact Closure Port provides an interface between the i-LiNE™ Lighting Control System and multiple other devices such as drapes, security systems, motors, remote key fobs, garage doors, door bells, motion detectors, and many additional devices. The i-PoRT-C4p Contact Closure Port is available in three basic models, a low power model with four 1 amp loads capability, a mixed power model with two 1 amp loads and two 10 amp loads capability, and a high power model with four 10 amp loads capability. Each port has both a contact that sense the open and closing of a switch and an output relay port that can control a device.

The i-PoRT-C4p can be programmed to control a scene or to be part of a scene. The programming can be done either through software or through the two buttons located on the front panel. Scene status is indicated via the LED located at the top of buttons. There are multiple modes that the i-PoRT-C4 can be setup to, depending on what type of device is being control. See application notes for additional details.

The i-PoRT-C4p responds to any controller with a serial interface through the i-PoWER-(x) Network Interface Module and communicates using the i-LiNE protocol. By using multiple i-LiNE products, the user can define and implement various multi-way switching and dimming configurations. Scenes can be programmed into the i-PoRT-C4p without the use of a controller. Advanced scenes which rely on multiple sensor and external triggers will require a controller for programming.
