(750 ICMs)
750 ICMs
Stratus II
1 ICI and 1 wire path
(750 ICMs)
6,000 ICMs
(with Wire Path
Keycode and 2 ICIs)
Nimbus II
1 ICI and 4 wire paths
(3,000 ICMs)
24,000 ICMs
(with 8 ICIs)
Cirrus

* Standard configuration is number of stations and ICIs available in the software without purchasing a
Hybrid Software Module. ICIs are purchased separately as needed and are not included with the central
control software.
** Maximum stations available for each level of software when additional ICIs and Hybrid Software
Module are purchased.
Flexible Design
The IC System
TM
was designed to be as flexible as possible to accommodate the future needs of the golf
course.
While each wire path can accommodate 750 ICMs, if the wire path is expected to be at maximum
capacity, installing an additional wire path will create extra capacity for future expansion. When
designing with multiple wire paths, try to balance the load between the wire paths in order to ensure
there is room for future expansion on the wire path.
