L‑SMI Standard Motor Interface

SMI

SMI is the acronym for Standard Motor Interface. SMI is a bus protocol used to control SMI sunblind motors for shading. Up to 16 motors can be connected to the bus. The L-SMI interface connects an SMI bus to a L‑INX, L‑ROC, or L‑DALI controller. Two SMI interface models are available.

The LSMI-800 connects a single SMI channel with up to 16 SMI motors to the EXT port of the L‑INX or L‑ROC controller. A galvanically isolated bus power for the SMI bus is provided by the LSMI-800 interface. Only SMI high voltage motors may be connected to the LSMI-800 interface.

The LSMI-804 connects up to four SMI channels with up to 64 SMI motors to the USB port of the L‑INX, L‑ROC, or L‑DALI controller. A galvanically isolated bus power for the SMI bus is provided by the LSMI-804 interface. Only SMI high voltage motors may be connected to the LSMI-804 interface.

Features

  • SMI Interface for L‑INX, L‑ROC, L-GATE or L‑DALI Controller
  • Configuration through web interface
  • Calibration of the blind drives via web interface
  • Up to 16 blind drives per SMI port
  • Supports Standard Motor Interface, SMI bus systems according to www.standard-motor-interface.com*
  • Easy device replacement

* Note on SMI LoVo: From a technical perspective, the interface is capable of operating SMI LoVo devices. However, according to the SMI logo requirements, an interface used for SMI LoVo applications must be clearly marked and registered as an SMI LoVo interface. In addition, SMI LoVo devices and non-LoVo SMI devices must not be mixed on the same LOYTEC SMI interface device.
