With Total Control's two-way module for Vantage, we can integrate all Vantage lighting systems seamlessly. Below are some steps and instructions and an easy integration with Total Control.
- Currently our module works with Vantage InFusion controllers IC-24 and IC-36.
- Our module will also control their Vantage CC-STAT thermostat.
OUR MODULE DOES NOT CONTROL VANTAGE AUDIO EQUIPMENT
Using the Vantage downloader can be a little misleading. When you click on the Vantage downloader, it asks for a basestation IP address and a configuration file path. The basestation IP address is that of the URC base station be it an MRX-8, 10 or 20. The configuration file path is that of the actual Vantage programming file. After clicking the “download config” button, a verification window appears with a file path that must be copied into the system parameter information (FILE=) section of step 11.
- DEFAULTROOMID- This is the ID of the room that the module will jump to when launched.
- DEFAULTPAGE- This is the page that the module will jump to when launched. By default, it is set to “ROOMS”.
The “DEFAULTROOMID” and “DEFAULTPAGE” is information that the installer should have or be able to get from his Vantage programming. A quick tip is to have the installer open his Vantage file using notepad. This will open the file in a way that dictates what the identifying number is for each room or load. Keeping in mind that we are not Vantage dealers or installers, this is information that the installer should already have.
