    Hi all just joined and in need of some info on the above. Went to look at an existing install and the client has as system called Square D Intelligent Home Control. It looks very much like it could be a variant of c-bus but I can't find any info on it.

    The madules are all linked via cat5 but the switches are just conventional momentary's hardwired back to some type of din mounted input module.

    The question is does anyone know where I can get the toolkit software for this system I can't find any info on the Schneider site.:confused:

    This is probably not cbus.

    It's most likely the LK IHC system.

    Suggest you do a google search for LK (Lauritz Knudsen). I think the web site might be www.lk.dk.

    I have no idea how this system works or is set up though. And I'm surprised that its marked "Square D". You live and learn.

    Thanks Ashleigh, my Danish is not to good:( but it gave me enough pointers to find some other links Lexel is another way it is branded and Lexcontrol and they all seem to be linked back to our friends Schneider !! Square D no longer do it, this guy was sold an obsolete system over here I think he will be happy when I tell him I'll have to import the bits for Denmark lol

    IHC has been sold in the uk for many years. i know bits about but never worked on it.
    I can get you some more info on it tomorrow when i am back in the office.

    as the old c-bus rep i used had worked in ihc for many years.

    IHC has not links to c-bus and has been phased out over the last few years as c-bus is far better. there was no point schinder selling to simlair HA system and had to get rid of one of them.

    Thanks Ben, I found a link for the software on the LK site but it was all in Danish, they call it IHC Visual Control Version 1.32 or Lexel has the same thing and they call it IHC Win Controller, there is a possibiity from what I've scratched up on the net that the controller has the software built in on older versions.

    Any help or info would be great

    That box that everything is wired back to is the IHC controller, and you program that. How, and with what, I don't know.
