C-Bus™ System Units
Class 1250
Power Supply
The C-Bus Power Supply is specifically designed to operate with the C-Bus network as a power source for passive
C-Bus devices. Up to five power supplies can be connected to a single C-Bus network.
•
Available in 120 and 277 Vac models
•
Regulating power supply compensates for line voltage and frequency variations, so there is constant output
•
Sources up to 350 mA to the C-Bus network
•
UL listed to operate in parallel with other Clipsal power supplies, up to five on a single C-Bus network
•
Incorporates short circuit and reverse polarity protection
•
DIN style construction 4M wide: 3.4”(L) x 2.8”(W) x 2.6”(H)
PC Interface
The C-Bus PC Interface (PCI) expands options for configuring, controlling, and monitoring C-Bus networks by providing
an interface between the network and a personal computer (PC). The C-Bus PCI module easily mounts to a DIN rail
and connects to the C-Bus network. Power to the unit is provided through the C-Bus network.
Serial
•
Unit/Comms LED shows the status of the unit’s power and of any data transmissions
•
Three RS-232 serial connectors for connecting to a PC or to external devices: (1) 9-pin D-type serial connector (female) and
(2) 8-pin RJ-45 connectors
•
Two C-Bus network connector ports: RJ-45 sockets
•
Data cable for connecting PCI and personal computer, including DB9 connectors
USB
•

Pascal Automation Controller
C-Bus Pascal Automation Controller (PAC) provides extended conditional and real-time event programming to C-Bus
systems. The PAC supports a full range of programming commands including conditional logic, flow control variables
and scheduling.
Systems integrators will appreciate the built-in scheduling tools, scene tools, and wizards for creating basic logic
programs. Full programming capabilities can be achieved utilizing the free-form script editor based off the pascal
programming language.
•
Connects directly to C-Bus network
•
Powered from the C-Bus network
•
USB port for connection to personal computer
•
(2) RS232 ports for third party device control
•
Real time, astronomical and C-Bus system clock included with 24 hour internal capacitor backup and external 12 Vdc battery
terminals
Programming capabilities including: i.e. Conditional logic (if, then, and, or, not, etc.), Flow Control (for, repeat, while),
Variables (integer, real, Boolean, character, string), Control and monitoring of group addresses, Control and monitoring
of scenes.
Ethernet Network Interface
The C-Bus Ethernet Network Interface unit is a C-Bus system device designed to provide an isolated communications
path between an Ethernet 10Base-T Network and a C-Bus Network. This allows high-speed control and monitoring of a
C-Bus installation via the TCP/IP protocols used in computer networks and by the Internet. System integrators and
installers will also benefit from having remote access to the system. With the C-Bus Ethernet Network Interface unit,
access to a single or multiple networks can be as close as the nearest Ethernet connection.
•
Remote access to Clipsal systems
•
Bridge multiple C-Bus networks together over LAN or WAN
•
Fully supports all Clipsal commands
•
Small size, mounts in standard DIN enclosure (4M wide)
•
Includes 12 Vdc power supply
Telephone Interface Unit
C-Bus Telephone Interface Unit offers a dial-in and dial-out capability for control of a C-Bus system. Remote location
override, monitoring, diagnostics and configuration of a C-Bus system is possible with this unit. The C-Bus Telephone
Interface Unit is programmed using a connection to a PC running TICA (Telephone Interface Commissioning
Application) configuration software. The interface can also act as a C-Bus PC Interface. The Telephone Interface Unit
can be installed in a C-Bus 36 or 60M enclosure or as a wall mountable stand-alone item with connection to C-Bus.
•
Remote location override
•
Voice prompts and confirmation
•
Password protected
•
32 supported devices
•
Automatic dial out on present conditions
•
Local or remote site access to C-Bus system
•
