Those devices which draw more current than the IntelliControl can supply should be triggered by a wall adapter or power supply of adequate capacity routed through the contact closures. Note: The contact closures are rated to a maximum of 30 volts AC or DC with a maximum current of 1 amp.

Also Note: Never connect 120V AC to the contact closures. Use a Niles AC-6+ triggered by a 12V DC control voltage for AC Power Switching. The Niles AC-6+ consumes 100mA of current when triggered.

Audio 12V Output

The Audio 12V Output is automatically activated whenever the Preamp is “On”. This is configured in the IntelliFile II software, on the “Components” tab for each Master Key, by selecting “Turn Preamp On” in the “Audio Scene Setting”.

Video 12V Output and Relay

The Video 12V Output and Relay are automatically activated whenever the TV is “On”. This is configured in the IntelliFile II software, on the “Components” tab for each Master Key, by selecting “Turn TV On” in the “Audio Scene Setting”. It is not possible to activate the 12V Output without activating the Relay, and vise-versa.

Assignable 12V Output and Relay

The Assignable 12V Output and Relay are controlled with two dedicated commands, “Relay On” and “Relay Off” which are found in the IntelliFile II programming software. The functions of the Assignable Relay can only be activated (or deactivated) as a step in a sequence. Once again, it is not possible to activate the 12V Output without activating the Relay, and vise-versa.

However, you may program any two Function Keys on any Master Key page to manually trigger the Assignable 12V and Relay “On” or “Off” by creating a sequence consisting of just one step if desired, which would be either the “Relay On” or “Relay Off” command.

The Assignable relay can be configured as a “momentary contact” by issuing the “Relay On” command as the first step, then the “Relay Off” command as the second step in the sequence. See page 13 of the IntelliFile II Reference manual for more information.

3I. Utilities

ID Code

The IntelliControl Tabletop Remote features four DIP switches located behind the batteries inside the battery compartment.

Select the “Utilities” Tab in the IntelliFile II software and make sure that the Unit ID on the Tabletop Remote matches the Unit ID configuration in the software. It really doesn’t matter which way the DIP switches are set, as long as they are set the same. Up to 16 IntelliControls maybe used within a 100ft radius if each unit is set to a different Unit ID Code.
