used to manage hotel functions automati-
cally to improve client comfort and save on
heating and electricity costs.
Control units located in different rooms com-
municate with the PC-based central SUPER
VISION station. Being independently intelligent,
control units can manage processes without
communicating with the central station.
The PC application is easy to use and con-

The system was developed to monitor, control and record ­ that is to say manage - multiple functions from the same work
station.
The system can manage accesses, air conditioning, heating and electricity in different areas; it can also manage staff ope-
rations, technological and security installations, etc.
The system can be customized according to specific requirements.
The system is currently configured to
check the status of rooms (client or staff in the room), lights, tem-
peratures (both in room and bathroom) and electricity to ensure energy saving and monitor tech-
nological anomalies.
The system is structured on the concept of "distributed intelligence" and includes two levels of intelligence: the
first level
consists in a Personal Computer with management software on board; the
second level is composed of modular units
with microprocessor connected to the Personal Computer by means of a cable. The units are located in the room electri-
cal boards.
Each unit can manage its specific area independently. The PC communicates with the units and supervises the system in
automatic mode, interacting with the user: it detects malfunctioning, anomalous or dangerous situations. For this reason
the PC must be always on and cannot be used to run other programs, except with prior written consent from ITC.
In case of PC anomalies, the basic functions of the system are guaranteed to avoid trouble for clients in the rooms.
The PC with management software must be equipped with color monitor, mouse, and keyboard.

This window shows the status of the functions managed by the installation. Temperature control changes according to the
presence of the
client and according to the parameters set during the reservation in order to optimize the energy con-
sumption-heating ratio. The presence of the client in the room is detected through the insertion of the chip card in the slot.
The room temperature is measured by the sensors and values are displayed by pressing the buttons
Room
Temperature and Bathroom Temperature. The measured values are used by the system to adjust air conditio-
ning/heating with fan coils and/or radiators. Values are updated in real time to check if the room temperature corre-
sponds to settings. You can manage energy saving and change the temperature values accordingly. To optimize energy
consumption the system considers the window status (open/closed). If the window is open, the room temperature (mea-
sured temperature) will not correspond to the temperature you have set. The
room to clean function is an automatic
function that is related to the client's presence during the night. The software checks if the room is used during the night
and the next morning indicates that the rooms need to be cleaned. The information is shown both on the PC monitor and
with a LED on the synoptic panel of the chip card unit outside the door. The indication "Room to clean" can be deactivated
by the staff by pressing a button on the temperature panel or jack connector (
art. ATT-J) and informing the receptioni-
st that the room is ready.
The system can be used to check the Staff operations. The staff can be identified using the menu item "
Staff" and then

The second section is used to set the
SAVING VALUE that affects the temperature set in the room. This value is
added (in SUMMER) or subtracted (in WINTER) to/from the temperature value set in the temperature profile.
For example, in winter configuration mode and with
Saving Value
2, THE RESERVED ROOMS WITHOUT
CLIENT WILL FOLLOW THE TEMPERATURE PROFILE OF THE ROOM WITH A DIFFERENCE of two
degrees in order to guarantee energy saving and provide a comfortable room to the client.
The third section is used to set the
MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE DEVIATION SET BY THE CLIENT. This para-
meter is used to control the temperature set by the client in the room. The number set with the arrows is the maximum
or minimum deviation that can be set by the client using the thermostat in the room with respect to the temperature
value set by the operator.
For example, both in winter and summer configuration mode, with the
value set to
3 and a comfort temperature
profile set to 22°C, the maximum temperature variation that the client can set in the room is + or ­ 3°C, i.e. the
client can set a temperature value ranging from
19°C to 25°C.
The fourth section is used for
TEMPERATURE PANEL SETTINGS. You can display the time and temperature value
and deactivate the reset of the temperature value set by the client when leaving the room.
The fifth section is used to set the
MAINTENANCE TEMPERATURE. This value is the room temperature value
used when rooms are neither reserved or used. The value can be set for each floor individually by the operator.
Once settings are completed, press the
RECORD button.

The
MEGA CONTROL UNIT CARD is installed in DIN BARS
and takes up 9 Modules. It is powered with 12 Vac with maximum
power absorption of 30 VA transformer. Use one independent
transformer for each unit and connect it to a dedicated electrical
line under UPS of on-line or line-interactive type.
Always turn off the power before making the electrical connections.
Temperature sensors must be installed in dedicated boxes at
approx. 1.5 m from the ground and away from sunlight, air or
heat sources (i.e. doors, windows, etc.). Do not install sensors
above the temperature panel because of the heat generated by
the panel.
Connection cables of input devices (i.e. temperature sensors,
magnetic contacts, buttons, etc.) must not exceed 20 m length.
Fan-coil and towel warmer valves must be of ON/OFF type (elec-
tro-thermal or motorized open/close). 220 Vac valve commands
are recommended. The electro-thermal model must be of NC
type (with command mounted on the valve and not powered, the
water flow must be stopped).
The radiator valve is alternative to fan-coil. Do not install both
components in the same room. The radiator valve can be of
ON/OFF type, modulating motorized or modulating linear, con-
trolled with 0-10V continuous voltage.
Provide a 220Vac room teleruptor. Install an additional transfor-
mer for components with different voltage.
PLUG connectors must be crimped with good-quality metal pliers
and checked with cable tester. Cable length must not exceed 15
m. In case of cascade connection add up the length of the single
cables without exceeding the limit.
It is recommended to install a 1.6A delayed fuse between the
relay output contacts and the load to protect the unit in case of
actuator failure.
Auxiliary relays must be used to control electrical shutters, prefe-
rably in combination with suitably dimensioned fuses. Do not con-
nect the shutter motor to the Mega unit relay directly.
It is recommendes to keep the signal's lines (BUS, inputs, etc.)
away from power lines. (minimum suggested distance 15 cm).
The minimum requirements for the PC used to
supervise the system are:
CPU: Pentium IV 2 GHz/40 GB Hard Disk/256 MB Ram/S-VGA
color monitor/2 serial ports/1 parallel port/PS/2 mouse and
keyboard ports/USB ports sound card and speakers/ modem
(optional)/Windows 98/ME/2000/XP operating system
For the correct operation of the system the PC must be always
on and preferably dedicated to I.T.C. technological manage-
ment system. The control application works with 800x600
pixel resolution.
