Crestron C2N-SDC-DC Shade & Drape DC Motor Controller

Shade & Drape DC Motor Controller:

C2N-SDC-DC

Introduction

Features & Functions

The CrestronC2N-SDC-DC is a shade and drape DC motor control

Cresnet® slave module designed to control two 2-wire bi-directional DC

motors that drive shades and drapes. The C2N-SDC-DC is specifically

designed for the Cresnet control network and functions as part of a

complete Crestron control/automation system. Power for the shade

motors is derived from the Cresnet +24 VDC supply. Two 2-pin terminal

connectors are provided for + drive and – drive for each motor.

Functional Summary

• Controls two 24 VDC shade or drape motors individually or

simultaneously (30 W maximum)

• The C2N-SDC-DC mounts on a standard 2-gang or

4-inch square electrical box

• Four manual pushbutton controls are provided on the faceplate

The C2N-SDC-DC is designed to fit inside and mount to a 2-gang wall

box or 4 x 4 x 1.5 inch electrical box, where input power for the two

shade or drape motors is derived from Cresnet.

Two 2-pin terminal blocks for motor connections can accommodate

30 AWG to 12 AWG wires.

A hardware interlock prevents the motors from being driven in both

directions simultaneously. In addition, the firmware implements a

lockout timer that shuts the motor off for a brief time before allowing the

motor to reverse direction. Additional control is available via Cresnet.

Four pushbuttons on the face of the unit allow the motors to be activated

without Cresnet control, which is particularly useful when operating the

unit locally during installation.

1. Does not include power for the motors. For example, add 10 Watts for

each Somfy LT28B shade motor. Three Watts are consumed by the

C2N-SDC-DC when the motors are not operating. Motor loads may be

connected to the C2N-SDC-DC up to the available power remaining on

the Crestron power supply. Crestron recommends that the available power

be de-rated by a factor of two to allow for the inrush motor current that

occurs when the motors are initially activated. A dedicated power supply

for the C2N-SDC-DC and associated motors is recommended.

2. The latest versions can be obtained from the Crestron website. Refer to

NOTE after last footnote.

3. Crestron 2-Series control systems include the AV2 and PRO2. Consult the

latest Crestron Product Catalog for a complete list of 2-Series control

systems.

4. Filenames for CNX update files have a UPZ extension. Files on the

website may be .zip or self-extracting .exe files containing the .cuz or .upz

file. All can be obtained from the Crestron website. To avoid program

problems, make sure you are using the update file with the correct suffix

letter (e.g., V, W, X).

NOTE: Crestron software and any files on the website are for Authorized

Crestron dealers and Crestron Authorized Independent Programmers

(CAIP) only. New users may be required to register to obtain access to

certain areas of the site (including the FTP site).

Physical Description

The C2N-SDC-DC is a mountable plate with electronic components

attached to the rear side. The front side of the plate is labeled and

includes; three LEDs that indicate the unit’s status, one Cresnet

connector, two connectors for motor control, and all local motor controls.

Refer to the following illustrations.

Industry Compliance

As of the date of manufacture, the C2N-SDC-DC has been tested and

found to comply with specifications for CE marking and standards per

EMC and Radiocommunications Compliance Labelling.

NOTE: This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is

subject to the following two conditions: (1) these devices may not cause

harmful interference, and (2) these devices must accept any interference

received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Setup

Network Wiring

CAUTION: In order to ensure optimum performance over the full range

of your installation topology, Crestron Certified Wire, and only Crestron

Certified Wire, should be used. Failure to do so may incur additional

charges if support is required to identify performance deficiencies as a

result of using improper wire.

CAUTION: Use only Crestron power supplies for Crestron equipment.

Failure to do so could cause equipment damage or void the Crestron

warranty.

CAUTION: Provide sufficient power to the system. Insufficient power

can lead to unpredictable results or damage to the equipment. Please use

the Crestron Power Calculator (http://www.crestron.com/calculators) to

help calculate how much power is needed for the system.

NOTE: When installing network wiring, refer to the latest revision of

the wiring diagram(s) appropriate for your specific system configuration,

available from the Crestron website.

When calculating the wire gauge for a particular Cresnet run, the length

of the run and the Cresnet power usage of each network unit to be

connected must be taken into consideration. If Cresnet units are to be

daisy-chained on the run, the Cresnet power usage of each network unit

to be daisy-chained must be added together to determine the Cresnet

power usage of the entire chain. If the unit is a home-run from a Crestron

system power supply network port, the Cresnet power usage of that unit

is the Cresnet power usage of the entire run. The length of the run in feet

and the Cresnet power usage of the run should be used in the following

resistance equation to calculate the value on the right side of the

equation.

Resistance Equation

R = Resistance (refer to the following table).

L = Length of run (or chain) in feet.

P = Cresnet power usage of entire run (or chain).

R < L x P
