PCS / PulseWorx UPB Time Controller
Description
The TEC, a programmable timer to automatically control PulseWorx lighting devices at preset times, provides lighting automation without the need for an expensive home management system.
The TEC is part of PCS's PulseWorx line of residential lighting control products that utilize the patented UPB (Universal Power Line Bus) technology. It can be programmed with 20 individual events, which can occur between once a day to once a year. Based on geographic location, a built-in astronomical clock can automatically adjust for sunrise/sunset, leap year and daylight savings. All programmed data is protected by non-volatile memory and can only be changed or deleted by reprogramming, regardless of power outage durations. A factory installed lithium battery maintains accurate time and calendar information.
A computer is used to program the TEC but scheduled events can easily be disabled from any UPB transmitter. This by no means implies you need to use your computer to disable a scheduled event, only to program it. Due to the TEC receiving capability, the device can listen for a command transmitted from ANY UPB transmitter that is programmed to disable a scheduled event. For example, lights are programmed to turn off at 10:00 every night but your dinner party is running a little long. Disable the pre-programmed event by transmitting a UPB Link command from the KPCD8 nearby, without having to log into your computer to make the change. The TEC is smart enough to recognize the command sent, disable the event this time, and re-enable the schedule tomorrow. Note: PCS strongly suggests professional installation of their UPB products.
