QUICK CHOICE

Start with the project type

Home and Light cover compact residential installations. Pro expands towards larger residential and commercial sites, while Ultra is designed for demanding C&I and utility applications.

Home

Residential

Up to 5 devices and a grid connection up to 40 A.

Includes one RS485 input and one Modbus TCP input.

Light

Network-first installations

Up to 5 devices and a grid connection up to 40 A.

One Modbus TCP input. RS485 is possible through an external RS485-to-USB converter.

CONNECTIONS & I/O

Compare physical connections

Check the interfaces that must be available directly on the controller. This is often the deciding factor between Home, Light, Pro EDS and Pro OM1.

FINAL CHECK

How to make the final choice

  1. 1
    Count the devices.Home and Light support up to five devices; larger or more complex projects move to Pro or Ultra.
  2. 2
    Check the grid connection and project power.Home and Light are intended for residential connections up to 40 A; Pro covers projects up to 1 MW.
  3. 3
    List every required interface.Count RS485, Modbus TCP, digital I/O and relay connections before choosing the hardware.
  4. 4
    Match control complexity.Use Ultra when many devices, demanding logic or time-critical control are central to the project.
