I met with the sales manager at Polaron today. He
is
more than happy to sell kit to us on a self install basis. They use CAT5
for 24V
and 2 wire RS485 signalling, and the intelligence is distributed among the
8
channel dimmer packs. The PC software does allow control at a local level,
but
is not an HA controller as such. An Ocelot seems the most appropriate way
to
go, connected via a serial port interface.
Next time I speak, I’ll give him
Mark’s
email address, so they can liase regarding pricing etc.
Tim.
