EQUINOX 40
simplify the complex
enhance the capabilities of your system at the touch of a button
Meet Equinox 40, a beautiful, always on, always there LCD keypad that provides intuitive control of your lighting, scenes, and climate through its single layer user interface. EQ40 is a single-gang LCD keypad that combines many of the advantages of a full sized touchscreen with the simplicity of a multi-gang keypad, reducing the need and clutter of separate keypads and thermostats.

With its minimalistic on wall presence, Equinox 40 functions as part of a Vantage system and allows personalized control of a specific room or area. Key to accomplishing this is the on-screen mini widget environment that allows for the creation of control profiles through Vantage's Design Center software. Profiles can be created based on time of day, location, function, or individual.

With Equinox 40, you get an Apple© type device that is unique, simple to use, and very reliable. Plus, with mini-widgets, you get auto-generated object programming, which saves you time and money.
SIMPLE
Easily adapt to your customers' changing needs by updating button text without new engraving. Then, with up to three pages of scenes, adapt each page to a person, a time of day, a room, or a system.
FLEXIBLE
Easily adapt to your customers’ changing needs by updating button text without new engraving. Then, with up to three pages of scenes, adapt each page to a person, a time of day, a room or a system such as lighting, shades and energy savings.
RETROFIT
Because the Equinox 40 LCD keypad is connected via standard Vantage station bus, it can be added to any InFusion system as a new keypad, on a new construction project, or even as a replacement keypad for one of your past InFusion system clients.  
CONSISTENT
Consistency is absolutely key for your customers; every touch point should look and act in the same way. And physical aesthetics such as form, color, shape, and size are critical. In both cases, you win with Equinox 40: consistent, beautiful, and intuitive.
MULTI SYSTEM CONTROL
With the functionality of mini widgets, you get to deliver a comprehensive control solution while simultaneously enhancing the beauty of your clients' homes. Through one single gang device, you can combine lighting, scene, and comfort control.
single page, multiple options
our mini widgets provide a higher level of control with the same single gang size keypad
The Equinox 40 offers mini widgets to provide the ultimate custom flexibility and personalization. Blend scenes with temperature and shading, or add a dramatic lighting scene including natural and artificial light. Mini widgets aren't like anything else; that's because each mini widget is designed specifically for EQ40. With mini widgets, you can do things like make a room more comfortable, a morning routine easier, or a party more entertaining, all with the press of a button.
TEMPERATURE / CLIMATE / CLOCK / MINI WIDGET
Feeling too warm or too cold? Compare the room temperature and current thermostat setpoint, temporarily adjust it to a more comfortable level, and see modes change and confirmation of "heat to" or "cool to" condition. Keeping an eye on local weather conditions is easy with numeric and icon driven continuous updates and simply checking the time is even easier with an always visible clock.
SCENES/LIGHTING MINI WIDGET
Personalize the scene … use life style descriptions to execute the desired scene, easily raise or lower the lighting to create a unique atmosphere. A simple button press can evoke complex, behind the scenes conditional logic to determine the most appropriate use of light and energy. Three or five scenes make best use of space with combination audio. Balance natural and artificial light through integrated light and shade control. Status is immediately recognizable through color change of the scene descriptive.
