The Extron WC Pro 150 OCS is a compact Ethernet-enabled workspace automation controller with an integrated occupancy sensor that automatically powers on a display when a user enters a room and powers it off when no motion is detected. It is designed to work right out of the box using CEC for automated display control in workspaces of all sizes. If additional customization is needed, the built-in web page allows for configuration of the sensors as well as control of a single display via Ethernet, RS-232, IR, or CEC. These ports are all located on the attached port expansion interface, which allows them to be neatly tucked away behind a display. At only six inches in length, the WC Pro 150 OCS has a compact, modern design and can be easily mounted either below or above a flat panel display.

Adding a LinkLicense for WC Pro Control Processor and then configuring the controller with Global Configurator Plus or Professional or programming it with ControlScript allows control of multiple displays and devices. This also enables use of our full lines of TouchLink Pro touchpanels, Network Button Panels, and IP Link Secure Platform Devices to be used in projects. Once LinkLicense for WC Pro Control Processor has been applied, then LinkLicense for User Interfaces can also be applied. This LinkLicense provides an easy way for people to use their mobile devices or computers as primary control interfaces.
