Interface Devices
The PulseWorx Lighting Control System may be interfaced to Home Automation Controllers, Security panels, Multi-room Audio systems, Media Servers, Computers, Off-the-shelf sensors, X-10 devices, Doorbells, even your Telephone using the extensive line of PulseWorx Interface Modules.
Powerline Interface Module (PIM-R, PIM-U)
 The PIM Powerline Interface Module is a small plug-in device designed to be the interface between an RS232 or USB port on a computer (or dedicated controller) and the powerline.
The PIM plugs into any standard 120VAC electrical outlet. The PIM-R is an RS-232 serial interface that connects to any available COM port via a DB9 serial cable (included). The PIM-U is a USB serial interface that connects to any available USB port. Software drivers allow the PIM-U to emulate a serial PIM by taking over an available COM port.
The PIM is the device of choice for interfacing PCS's UPStart Setup Software to the powerline.
The PIM comes in a white enclosure. A multi-color LED is provided on the front of the module and acts as a powerline signal indicator as well as indicating modes of operation.
X-10 to UPB Bridge (PW513)
 The PW513 X-10 to UPB Bridge is a small plug-in electronic device that converts standard X-10 formatted messages into corresponding UPB Communication Packets which is capable of transmitting and receiving digital commands and status over the existing powerlines and control UPB devices.
The PW513 is the ideal solution for interfacing alarm panels and other devices (that interface to an X-10 network via a PL-513 interface) to the high reliability of the PulseWorxTM Lighting Control System. Simply substitute the PW513 for the PL-513 and you have instantly switched to the high reliability of UPB.
The PW513 receives X-10 messages through a standard 4-wire X-10 (PL-513/TW-523) interface output.
X-10 to UPB Converter (XPW713)
 The XPW713 X-10 to UPB Converter is a small plug-in electronic device that converts standard X-10 formatted messages sent on the AC powerline into corresponding UPB Communication Packets to control your PulseWorxTM UPB devices.
The XPW713 is the ideal solution for interfacing X-10 compatible transmitting devices and sensors to the high reliability of the UPB PulseWorxTM Lighting Control System.
The XPW713 receives X-10 messages on the existing AC powerline.
Example Operation: When an X-10 A1 ON command is sent on the powerline the XPW713 will convert this signal and transmit Link 1 Activate onto the powerline.
Input Control Module (ICM)
 The ICM Input Control Module is a high quality plug-in home automation controller device designed to interface off-the-shelf low voltage or contact closure sensor devices to the PulseWorx Lighting Control System.
The Input Control Module provides two independent channels of general purpose isolated contact closure sensing inputs to activate single lights, trigger dramatic scenes, or send messages to a central controller.
Simply plug the ICM into any standard wall outlet and wire the device to the sensor.
Doorbell Ring Interface Module (DBM)
 The DBM Doorbell Ring Interface Module is a small plug-in device designed to sense the current of a doorbell ring to trigger the transmission of digital commands onto the existing powerlines.
The DBM can be programmed to send any UPB link command to turn on or off (or blink) any light or group of lights upon the ringing of a doorbell. Great for the hearing impaired!
The DBM plugs into any standard receptacle. An easy-to-wire four terminal connector enables terminating two doorbell circuits from as far away as 1000 feet.
Telephone Ring Interface Module (TCM)
 The TCM Telephone Ring Interface Module is a small plug-in device designed to sense a telephone ring to trigger the transmission of digital commands onto the existing powerlines.
The TCM can be programmed to send any UPB link command to turn on or off (or blink) any light or group of lights upon the ringing of a telephone. Great for the hearing impaired!
The TCM plugs into any standard AC power receptacle. The TCM includes two standard phone jacks for connecting as many as two different phone lines.
