EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — Sept. 12, 2019 — Legrand | AV Residential Solutions has updated its QMotion Qadvanced Intelligence System (QIS) Power and Communication Panel, the control system for its QIS Hardwired Shades. Showing for the first time at CEDIA Expo 2019 in Booth 905, the latest version of the panel has been redesigned to be smaller, sleeker, and easier to install.

“One of our goals is always to make things simpler for integrators to install and maintain,” said Fritz Werder, vice president and general manager for Legrand | AV. “The new QIS Power and Communication Panel offers a straightforward installation and eliminates needless potential motor damage when power is accidentally added to a data pin.”

A robust and dependable control system, the QIS Power and Communication Panel comes with its own power supply and delivers power to wired wall-mounted switches. The updated system measures 6.9 inches by 4.4 inches by 1.7 inches — shorter and slimmer, designed to fit in a Vantage Controls enclosure.

Each QIS Power and Communication Panel is designed to distribute the appropriate power to as many as eight shades or control devices. It comes with eight RJ-45 ports for motorized shades and switches and two RJ-45 communication ports. The panel also provides protection against a short circuit or overload to individual shades.

The updated QIS Power and Communication Panel is available now. More information on QMotion shading solutions can be found at http://www.qmotionshades.com/.
