The iBox Controller combines advanced functionality, multiple communication ports and local I/O in a small footprint suitable for both pole-top or pad-mount feeder automation and substation automation applications. Sharing the D20’s large communication protocol and automation application library makes this product a little powerhouse that’s easy to learn for existing D20 customers. The optional LogicLinx® IEC61131-3 soft logic automation tool smoothly implements popular distribution automation applications such as capacitor bank control, outage prevention programs and feeder resource optimization.
