N-CAS® VDM1000B OPEN FRAME DRIVE CONTROLLER
UNIBLITZ®II

803 Linden Avenue, Rochester, NY 14625
The VDM1000B is the optimal driver for the new UNIBLITZ
® II N-CAS®, NS series shutters. The driver has user
-selectable function switches allowing it to handle a
variety of shutter configurations. It will operate a NCAS
® shutter in a uni-stable (normally open or normally
closed) mode, or bi-stable mode where no power is
required to hold the shutter open or closed. In addition
to this capability, the N-CAS® circuit can be disabled,
allowing the VDM1000 to operate standard LS, VS and
CS series shutters.
The VDM1000B operates from a user supplied +36VDC
power supply. It can be easily integrated into OEM applications
where +36VDC is available
