BTX offers one of the most customizable control programs in the industry. Each order is built to specification and quality assurance tested by BTX's own technical experts before it leaves the factory. BTX will also pre-program any custom control device upon request to save the time and effort of programming at the installation site. BTX control options include infrared and radio frequency remote, sun sensor, digital timer, group control, dry contact closure, low-voltage interface, network control, as well as other custom controls.
Customization is all about choices. Visit our peripherals section for a description of the various receivers, handsenders, switches and automated controls. BTX integrates peripherals into any of our Universal Control Modules (UCM's), group controls, or systems that support direct integration.
BTX custom builds each UCM to specification for the optimal automation experience. UCM's can support network control, infrared, radio frequency, low-voltage interface and dry contact closure on one or more systems or groups of systems. Upon request, BTX will program each control unit before it leaves the factory, relieving the time and effort of programming systems in the field.
BTX control systems have the ability to be directly integrated with complete home automation systems via the RS-232 and the RS-422 control modules. With these network devices, shades are not only activated and adjusted by a central control panel, but the control panel also receives feedback as to the position of each shade at each location. This type of interface system facilitates easy integration of BTX shades into a complete building management system. This is optimal for corporate buildings or hotels where operating many shades from a single location is beneficial compared to walking from room to room. Networking is also becoming more common in home automation and can be helpful when integrating motorized shades into a network that operates numerous types of devices on one control unit, such as home theater equipment or home lighting control. BTX controls will seamlessly integrate with many networking companies in the industry including ESI, Crestron, AMX, Lutron, Litetouch, Vantage, X-10, Z-Wave, and many more.
BTX group controls come in 4-Unit, 8-Unit and 12-Unit control devices. Each group control unit will operate all shades wired to the unit simultaneously through infrared, radio frequency, dry contact closure, switch, low-voltage interface, network, sun sensor, or digital timer.
BTX custom control boxes are manufactured to specification for the complete automation control experience. Each delicately crafted custom control unit is constructed and quality assured by BTX experts. These units can support infrared, radio frequency, dry contact closure, switch, low-voltage interface, network, sun sensor, or digital timer. The possibilities are nearly endless with the ability to operate up to 60 motorized systems on one control box, however when networking systems together, these control units can be made to handle any size job.
