1GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The iLoft VDS Dominium Monitor is a video entry unit as a result of FERMAX’s joint venture with ingenium. This
monitor has a 3.5” colour touch screen that allows you to monitor and control the home automation BUSing®
system quickly and intuitively via allusive icons in each of the installation’s rooms.
It has configurable Wi-Fi connection, allowing you to connect to the network for different functions such as
updating software versions immediately or showing weather information in the previously configured locations.
It incorporates with the option of editing scenes, allowing for the addition of new events in the installation
(besides those included with SIDE) taking advantage of the nodes’ status associated to the icons included in the
different installation plans from SIDE.
It also allows for the control of technical alarms for flooding, gas, fires, etc., and the management of intrusion
alarms within the area via a 4 digit numeric code, simulating real presence, programming annual schedules,
graphic notebooks, etc.

1.1 OPERATING MODES
Depending on the installed devices and the required features, the monitor can be configured to function in 2
different modes: Home automation and Energy Efficiency mode.
This configuration must be done during the installation’s start-up and must not be changed by the user under
any situation, since all of the installation’s programming could be lost.
1.1.1 HOME AUTOMATION MODE
Home automation allows you to configure and manage any type of BUSing device, along with the management
of alarms, scenarios, presence simulation, etc.
1.1.2 ENERGY EFFICIENT MODE
Energy efficient mode is optimized for installations that only have installed consumption meters and thermostat
options, offering a graphic interface adapted to these features. This mode is not possible to control other Home
automation elements or alarm management.
1.2 ABOUT USING THE BUSING SYSTEM
BUSing is a decentralized, flexible and scalable home automation system. The BUSing elements are
communicated via a 4 wire bus and in home automation BUSing installations this may reach up to 255
connected devices.
The home automation features that may be obtained with a BUSing device are:
Lighting control: on/off and regulation.
Control of blinds, curtains, etc.
Air conditioning controls.
Energy efficiency.
Electric load management.
Technical and Security Alarms.
Each BUSing device requires address and parameters programming to be able to integrate into an installation.
This programming must be performed by a specialised technician via the SIDE Fermax programming software

3OPERATING IN HOME AUTOMATION MODE
The graphic interface is divided into three main areas:
A central area with the installation’s maps over which the control icons are distributed over the different
equipment.
An upper bar which becomes visible upon dragging the map main screen down. In this bar we can
activate different scenarios programmed in SIDE, besides being able to create new scenarios. After the
creation of scenarios you can delete and edit those already created by using the screen itself. You can
not delete or edit scenes programmed and included via SIDE.
A lower bar which becomes visible upon dragging the map main screen up. This bar gives you access to
notepad function, technical alarms, annual schedules, intruder alarm, presence simulation, screen
parameter configuration and weather forecasts.
Below we explain in detail each of the areas to control in the graphic interface.
3.1 MAIN SCREEN
This screen is made up of maps of the project, besides a series of icons that correspond to each of the devices or
outputs making up the home automation system. These icons allow for the supervision and control of each of
the associated devices.
Besides the maps and icons, the upper right corner of the screen permanently shows the wireless coverage to
the connected network.
(From maximum to minimal coverage)
