The CommandFusion Solo is an IP-enabled all-in-one control system.
On-board ports include RS232 (with flow control), IR (which also operate as 1-way RS232 transmission ports), IR Blaster on 3 sides, dry contact inputs and Ethernet.
The Solo features an on-board real time clock, allowing it to perform advanced scheduling functionality.

There are two card slots that can be used to expand the Solo with additional functionality, such as DALI, IO, RS485, CFLink and more.
See the List of Cards for more details.

The Solo Quick Reference Guide provides the basic information required to get started on a printable, black and white document that can be easily taken with you to a job site. Find the Solo Quick Reference Guide here.

Although the Solo does not have an on-board CFLink port, it still shares the same protocol for communication and control.
