Black Nova smart design keypads now integrate with the RTI control platform thanks to a deal between the control and automation manufacturer and the Milan-based keypad maker.
The integration enables Black Nova Alba, Aria, Black Jack, and Axes series keypads to be configured to control and monitor any device connected to an RTI processor.
Neal Ellsworth, director of product management at RTI, said: "For luxury residential, hotel, and commercial installations where the sophisticated design of the Black Nova keypad is an obvious benefit, they can still enjoy the intuitive and fully customised experience that the RTI system delivers."
The new Black Nova driver works with all possible button combinations supported by Black Nova to control lighting, climate, and more, with separate events for Press, Hold, and Release for each button in the keypad. The RTI system can dynamically set the backlight LED state and colour. The integration enables controlling and monitoring of any HVAC system connected to an RTI processor, with integer-to-integer value conversion and string-to-integer replacement for HVAC parameter displays.
The new driver is available to authorized RTI dealers at the RTI driver store and directly within the RTI Integration Designer 11 control application programming software.
