The J4 io actuator is designed to drive the external venetian blind, types 1 & 2.
What is io-homecontrol®?
The J4 io uses io-homecontrol®, the new universal and secure wireless communication protocol, shared by
the major manufacturers in the world of home automation. io-homecontrol® enables all comfort and security
equipment to intercommunicate and be actuated via a single control point.
The flexibility and perfect compatibility of the io-homecontrol® system provides support for you as your needs
evolve. You can start by automating roller shutters, external venetian blinds and the front door, then equip the
outside awnings, the gate and garage door or garden lighting with the io-homecontrol® system.
These scalable items of equipment are still compatible with the existing system, thanks to io-homecontrol®
technology, which ensures their interoperability.
For further information please visit the website www.io-homecontrol.com..
io-homecontrol® provides advanced and secure radio technology that is easy to install.
io-homecontrol® labelled products communicate with each other, improving comfort,
security and energy savings.
