Panels
The term panel is used to describe a physical enclosure which is capable of switching
lighting loads on and off. The IPAC supports nine panels, each with a maximum of
up to 42 loads. The entire system can contain up to 210 loads.
Use the “Panel Worksheet” in the latest version of the IPAC-GL1 System Planning
Worksheets to map out the location of each load in a panel, their associated “warn”
functions, and associated sensors. After all of the loads have been identified, use this
section of the Setup Menu to configure the switching panels and associated loads that
will be controlled by the IPAC system.
