When the house button is pressed, the iremoteTS becomes a control
solution for the IntelliControl ICS modular multiZone receiver. It
displays the same information and metadata as a Contact System
Control Touchscreen. The main difference is that the Contact
is wired, while the iremoteTS is wireless and communicates via
radio frequency (rF). Therefore, integrating an iremoteTS with an
IntelliControl ICS modular multiZone receiver requires a ZigBee
rF mesh Network.
Selecting a Master-Receiving Base
A ZigBee rF mesh Network requires a rF transmitter, a master-
receiving base connected to the IntelliControl ICS modular
multiZone receiver, and, if the coverage area is particularly large,
additional rF repeaters. The iremoteTS is an rF transmitter and the
charging base doesn't have a rF base built-in, therefore it requires
at least one master-receiving base connected to the IntelliControl
ICS modular multiZone receiver. The master-receiving base can be
any of the following: (See Figure 6)
1) IntelliControl ICS rBX-1 iremote Charging Base (FG01269) or
(FG01364) for Export use
2) IntelliControl ICS iremote 2-Way Wireless rF System Control
remote (FG01180) or (FG01362) for Export configured as a
master-receiver
3) Niles rFG radio Frequency Gateway (FG01407)or (FG01408)
for Export
These products are configured either as master-receiving bases or as
repeating bases using Niles IntelliFile
