secure, high-performance, cost-effective control processors and
interfaces. Their small form factor and versatile mounting options make
them ideal for applications such as single-room systems, small to
medium-sized homes and offices, and MDUs (multidwelling units). The
control system includes a built-in infiNET EX® and ER wireless gateway
for acquiring wireless devices as well as numerous control ports for
controlling wired devices.
NOTE: The MC4 and MC4-I are functionally similar. For simplicity
within this guide, the term "control system" is used to refer to both
the MC4 and MC4-I unless otherwise noted.
