The HC6 was designed for less intensive integration
applications than the HC12. It is designed to be
located with a central equipment stack and has all
of integration control capabilities of the HC12, but
with fewer RS232 connections. The HC6 also lacks
the internal hard drive of the HC12, but as with all
g! controllers, is compatible with Network Attached
Storage (NAS) hard drives. NAS drive use also
enables DVR video storage. It features two music
stream outputs, six RS-232 connections, two
RS-485 connections, six sensor connectors, two re-
lays and twelve routed and one common IR outputs.
IR outputs 7-12 require a PPWM Precision Panel.
The HC6 is perfect for use in media centric instal-
lations where only a couple of other systems are
going to be integrated as these installations gener-
ally require fewer serial connections. The RS-232
connections are the best way to connect surround
receivers and multi-zone controllers. Additionally,
many of today’s televisions feature serial control
inputs. Use the other connections for Climate,
Lighting, or Security. If you need more than six IR
outputs, attach a PPWM Precision Panel to access
six more.
