HomeWorks QS Processor

The QS processor provides control and communication to HomeWorks system components.

The Ethernet links allow communication to the HomeWorks QS software, integration with third party systems and communication between multiple processors. HomeWorks QS processors may be connected using either standard networking or using ad-hoc networking. All processors on a project must be connected to a single network. The HomeWorks QS software and all integration equipment must be connected to the same network as the processors.

The processor is powered from the QSPS-DH-1-75 or QSPS-DH-1-60 power supply. Refer to the HomeWorks QS software to determine link power
requirements.

The QS processor can be installed in a HQ-LV21, L-LV21, L-LV14, or PNL-8 enclosure.

Processor Capabilities

Each QS processor has 2 links that can be individually configured as one of four types:

• HomeWorks Power Panels
  16 interfaces / 256 zones
• HomeWorks QS Wired Device Link
  99 devices / 512 zones
• HomeWorks Clear Connect
  99 devices / 100 zones
• HomeWorks Wired Dimmers
  4 interfaces / 192 zones
