DSC IT100 Data Interface Module

DSC PowerSeries Integration Module

IT-100

With the installation of the IT-100 integration module by DSC, PowerSeries™ control panels are able to interface with leading manufacturers of home and building automation products and audio distribution systems to create seamless, fully integrated control solutions. The t

modules feature a bi-directional RS-232 interface that accepts commands and sends event-driven or state-change commands to third-party applications to create shared functionality. For example, once a security system is disarmed upon entry, the IT-100 can send a command to an HVAC system to automatically raise the thermostat or send a command to a home automation system to turn on the lights.

DSC PowerSeries Integration Module How it Works

Baud Rate Selection

The IT-100 integration module provides an Application Programming Interface (API) to allow third-party applications to communicate with PowerSeries control panels and form fully integrated control solutions. When programming the module, there are two types of commands available:

The default Baud rate of the IT-100 integration module is set at 9,600. The table below indicates the recommended Baud rate settings in relation to the length of the RS-232 cable.

• Commands sent by third-party applications to the IT-100. • Event-driven or state-change commands that the IT-100 sends to third-party applications. Once programmed, the module can be used to create custom interfaces for users or for the integration of building systems, such as CCTV, with PowerSeries security systems. DSC Keypads
