ILT Shade Controller:

C2N-SSC-2

Introduction

Features and Functions

The Crestron®ILT Shade Controller, C2N-SSC-2, communicates with up

to two Somfy ILT Intelligent Shade Motors via a serial interface. In a

Crestron control system network (Cresnet®), the C2N-SSC-2 (herein

called Shade Controller) sets the position and the direction of motion of

each shade individually, with programmable settings for the upper and

lower limits of travel for each shade. Commands to move to a specific

location will position the shades relative to the full range of travel

between these upper and lower limits. Subsequent commands to move a

shade in the open or close direction activate shade movement until a limit

of travel is reached, until the command is de-activated, or until a stop

command is sent.

The Shade Controller can store and recall up to 20 shade presets.

Functional Summary

• Control up to two shades per Shade Controller

• Control position and direction of each shade individually

• Store and recall up to 20 presets per shade

• Connect via one 4-pin RJ-11 interface connector per shade

• Control shades in multi-unit installations individually, in

groups, all together, or any desired combination.

The upper and lower limits of travel for each shade are set up at the time

of installation via the six pushbuttons on the face of the Shade Controller,

or via a touchpanel, and are stored internally to each ILT motor. Shade

presets, stored as values relative to the limits of travel, can be stored and

recalled locally in the Shade Controller.

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

Physical Description

Refer to the figures below and on the following page. The unit is housed

in a black metal enclosure with labeling and controls on the front surface.

The bottom edges of the cover/faceplate extend to form two flanges with

screw slots for convenient mounting on any flat surface. Interface

connectors are mounted on opposite ends of the unit. The two 4-pin

RJ-11 connectors on the “top” end, labeled 1 and 2, provide connection

to two shade motor controller circuits. A 4-pin male Cresnet network port

on the “bottom” end, labeled 24 Y Z G, provides operating power and

communications to/from the unit.

NOTE: Power for the shade motor is independent of the Cresnet system.

Controls

The Shade Controller has six pushbuttons that are used to set the upper

and lower limits of travel for each shade. These limits are set at time of

installation and the values are stored in the ILT motor.

Shade Limit Control Pushbuttons

Pressing any one of the four outer pushbuttons puts the Shade Controller

into the limit-setting mode for the selected shade and upper or lower

limit. (Refer to “Setting Shade Limits and Direction of Travel” on page

13.)

Indicators

The only indicators on the Shade Controller are the three LEDs on the

face of the unit.

• The PWR LED (green) indicates the presence of +24V Cresnet

power.

• The NET LED (yellow) indicates an active Cresnet network

connection.

• The SETUP LED (red) indicates firmware upgrade, limit

setting, shade reversal, or the unit’s network ID setup activity.

− Flashes during firmware downloads

− On solid if in firmware loader mode (still needs application

firmware). Turns off after application firmware is loaded.

− On solid for twenty seconds if a shade 1/2 adjust

upper/lower limit button is pushed, putting the unit into

limit-setting mode.

− On for one second, then off when shade reversal is executed

from buttons on the unit.

SETUP LED and Pushbutton

The SETUP pushbutton and its associated LED are used for setup of the

unit’s network ID during the initial configuration of a Cresnet system or

when the device is being added/replaced. Refer to “Method B (Touch

Settable IDs)” on page 10 for detailed information.

Industry Compliance
