Power relay board works with sensorProbe
AKCP has developed a power relay board for controlling power to devices over Internet.
This will result in a more affordable price, allowing the customer to economically increase the number of points monitored.
Now it will be possible to monitor several areas for hot spots due to poor air circulation.
The company has also released a low cost sensorRemote box.
These units are available in both remote temperature and remote temperature and humidity versions.
The remote box can be connected by using a standard Cat5 cable with an RJ45 connector.
The sensorRemote box will accept one side of this cable into its standard RJ45 receptacle and the sensorProbe or cameraProbe will accept the other side of this cable into its standard RJ45 receptacle.
This allows users to position the sensorRemote box anywhere with a cable of the correct length.
The sensorRemote box contains sensors and support circuitry allowing the cable to be extended up to 300m.
Standard RJ45 connectors are used, allowing the sensorRemote box to be connected via corporate networking patch panels in many cases.
The sensorRemote box with temperature sensor is priced at $75.00 and the sensorRemote box with temperature and humidity sensor is priced at $120.00.
The sensorRemote box requires one spare autosense port on either the sensorProbe or the cameraProbe.
