It represents an automation system which can be easily implemented in any kind of building, like private homes, schools, hotels, hospitals, office buildings of any size.... The list is endless.
LCN is a programmable bus-operated system which consists of hardware and software. After the installation of the hardware the software is used to transfer predefined parameters into the system.
What is LCN able to do ? - Dimming of lighting - Storage, adjusting and appliance of up to 120 different lighting scenarios - Temperature and lighting control depending on parameters as time of day, presence of people in the room/building.... - Control of shutters and blinds depending on weather conditions
The modules are designed for switch board mounting and for the installation in wall boxes. The moduels and couplers are micro-processor based for the control of data transfer. The standard transfer rate on the lower level is 9,600 Bd at a transmission volume of 100 telegrams per second. The data transfer rate on the second level (important for large buildings, where multiple network levels are linked) is 2.5 Mbits per second at a volume of 10,000 telegrams per second.
