Shades
Shade and drape controllers are available to provide a convenient and cost-effective solution for harvesting
natural light and controlling the effects of the sun within an environment. By integrating shade and drape control
into a Crestron system, natural light can be used to help lower energy costs. In the colder months; shades can
raise automatically to use sunlight as a supplemental heating source. During the warmer months, shades can be
programmed to block sunlight thereby reducing the call for cool air. In many cases motorized shades offer simple
convenience, such as reducing screen glare during multimedia presentations.
Controlling
Controllers are available as 24 Vac, 120 Vac, and 240 Vac for controlling different motor types. There is also a
Somfy
®
shade controller that provides bidirectional serial control for up to two Somfy ILT Intelligent Shade Motors.
The Somfy shade controller allows specific positioning of the shades and polling of the current shade position for
ultimate control.
Integrating
Shade and drape controllers integrate through Cresnet. Each motor output is independently controllable. The
controllers are small enough to hide in the wall, ceiling, or 2-gang electrical box. A DIN Rail controller is also
available.
C2N-SDC
The C2N-SDC is a 2-channel shade and drape controller designed to provide a
convenient and cost-effective solution for controlling a variety of motorized
window treatments as well as motorized doors, sunroofs, lifts and projection
screens.
The C2N-SDC is a Cresnet device with two independently controlled 120V AC
outputs. Each output provides up/down or open/close control of a conventional
3-wire bidirectional type motor. Built-in timing and interlock logic make it easy to
program the C2N-SDC for fail-safe operation.
The C2N-SDC mounts in the wall or ceiling using an off-the-shelf 4" square or 2-
gang electrical box. Pushbuttons on the front of the unit allow for manual
operation of the motors during installation and setup.
C2N-SDC-DC
The C2N-SDC-DC is a 2-channel shade and drape controller designed to
provide a convenient and cost-effective solution for controlling 24 Vdc motorized
shades and drapes. The C2N-SDC-
DC is a Cresnet device with two
independently controlled 24 Vdc outputs, each designed to provide standard
up/down or open/close control of a conventional two-wire bidirectional type
motor.
The C2N-SDC-DC mounts in the wall or ceiling using an off-the-shelf 4 in square
or 2-gang electrical box. Pushbuttons on the front of the unit allow for manual
operation of the motors during installation and setup.
