Installation Guide
Description
The Crestron
®
CLCI-MCEX is a motor controller that provides open and close control of
one shade or shutter motor. The CLCI-MCEX has outputs for raise/open and lower/close
control.
Its ultra-slim design allows it to be installed in the ceiling, either next to or near the motor.
Powered by infiNET EX
®
technology, the CLCI-MCEX communicates wirelessly with the
control system, making it perfect for both new and retrofit applications. Install an in-line
switch to provide local control of the shade or shutter motor.
