Description: The Masking Director Controller family (IMC-300MKII-EM and IMC-300MKII-SL) are designed to control residential and commercial bi-directional blind, drapery and projection screen single phase, bi-directional AC motors (three wire motors--open, close, neutral connections). The IMC-300MKII-xx series of Controllers can be controlled through a number of remote control devices, including...
There are three motor ports on the MD-300. Motor Ports 1 and 2 are equipped with a built-in (accompanying) digital encoding circuit. Motor Port 3 is for analog-type motors (without digital encoding provisions). AC Motor wires should be plugged into appropriate ports. Converging Systems Inc. Page 5 Rev.5.0.0...
Leave AC Power OFF to system until requested to turn ON. Communication/ Low Voltage and CS-Bus Wiring Instructions Multiple communication I/Os are available within the IMC-300MKII-EM controller. Typically, only form of communication should be used. The choice depends upon your specific integration platform. It is recommended that for most systems, Internet Protocol (IP) should be used.
328 feet (100 meters). Plug one end of the above cable into the IP Connector on the IMC-300MKII-EM Controller and the other end to a network switch through which control to a remote integration platform is connected.
In the case of a multiple IMC-300MKII-xx controllers (or alternative CS-Bus controllers), only one connection to the RS-232C Connector on the master controller (the IMC-300MKII-EM Controllers) is supported. CS-Bus Connections (for connection to keypads and to additional IMC-100MKII-xx controllers).
When connecting an IMC-x00 compatible keypad to an IMC-300MKII-EM (i.e. BSMK-2110-B), connect the first keypad to the IMC-300MKII-EM’s Output (Port 0). If you desire to connect a second compatible keypad, secure an optional Device Insertion Module (DIM-2F-1M) and plug the DIM-2F/1M into Port 0 on the MD-300 and plug both keypads into the available Female ports.
Should your installation only require such functionality, please proceed within this section. However, if your installation requires additional customization not available with the information contained within this section, please consult Converging Systems Now follow the below steps: Factory Programming-DIP Switch Programming Certain often used templates have been re-programmed into the IMC-300MKII controller.

Provided the DIP switches have been set to a valid programmed setting, pressing an appropriate button on a BSKP-2112 keypad should enable quick testing of the Masking Director System. Enhanced testing can be performed using the e-Node Pilot application. Converging Systems Inc. Page 11 Rev.5.0.0...
The factory default for these six buttons is (Zone1/Group 1) for the first button marked “1,” sequencing to (Zone 1/Group 6) for the last button marked “6” (i.e. the Zones are always the same if the factory defaults are left unmodified). Converging Systems Inc. Page 13 Rev.5.0.0...

The IMC-300MKII supports a range of screen types. For screens which include a door, a special built-in programming scheme exists within device firmware versions 0.17 and later (this is the firmware for the Motor Control portion of the IMC-300MK as opposed to the ethernet/communication front end-firmware).
