The UMA series are plug-in modules designed to control 120VAC appliances, fan/pump motors and fluorescent lights based on lighting scene-link commands received over the power line. The lighting scene commands are communicated using highly-reliable Universal Powerline Bus (UPB) technology. UPB devices such as switches, multi-button controllers and schedulers are easily integrated in to a new home or can replace switches and timers in an existing home. UPB technology requires no new or special wiring, it provides a flexible, low-costs alternative to hardwired or RF home lighting and automation strategies.
UMA modules deliver on/off control for appliances, fan/pump motors and fluorescent lights (see model UML, dimmer modules for incandescent lamp control). Installation is simple: the module is plugged into a standard 120 VAC outlet and the appliance or light to be controlled is plugged into the bottom of the module. The connected appliance can be manually controlled by a UPB switch or multi-button controller, or automatically with a scheduler (model UCS-01), I/O module (model UMI) or with any PC / security / home automation controller that provides a UPB serial driver software option.
The timer feature of the UMA-20-W automatically turns off the controlled outlet after a preset period of: 1, 5, or 30 seconds; 1, 2, 4, 10, 20, 30, 40, or 50 minutes; 1,2, 3, or 4 hours. The timer can be disabled so the UMA-20-W functions like a standard appliance module (no timer function).
A UPB switch, such as the US2-40, can command any of the UMA-20- W timer functions via lighting scene/link commands to enable any selection of the timed off options. Advantages Simple plug-in installation No new wires Receives UPB lighting scene commands over existing AC power lines Controlled by UPB switches, multi-button controllers and PC / security / home automation controllers UPB technology delivers… Exceptional reliability and noise immunity Lowest installed cost compared to hardwired and RF solutions No interference between adjacent homes Easily configured or reconfigured with UPStart (PC) software makes moving module within the room or house easy Features Heavy duty model: UMA-20-W 15Amp, on/off relay 3 conductor connection includes safety ground Controlled outlet and always on convenience outlet Switch sense trigger, turns on module when appliances’ switch is turned on twice Timer function, automatic timed off control for convenience and energy savings
