Time/Date Scheduling Control
Get X10 macros, lighting "scene" capability and the ability to integrate audio/video control with the CS48, an intelligent home control system that offers 2-way X10 control, analog/digital sensor inputs and relay outputs. This powerful system connects to your PC for programming with the Windows-based software, but operates independently of the computer -- no dedicated PC necessary!

The system's analog inputs allow you to connect continuously variable input devices like temperature sensors and light level sensors. Digital inputs allow you to monitor security magnetic contacts, motion sensors and other contact closure sensors. Built-in relays allow you to directly hardwire low-voltage devices that you might want to control, such as HVAC systems, garage door openers, watering systems, etc. Additional input/outputs can be added (up to 152 inputs/72 outputs) with expansion modules. The system can use sequenced X10 commands as inputs, which increases the number of possible commands from a single keypad/remote. Use this as a security code feature for controlling door strikes or security systems. The system also supports powerful time-conditional macros!

IO Expansion
To add 8 more analog inputs, 16 digital inputs and 8 additional relay outputs to the CS48, add the CSIOX, or the RS485 based 8 Channel Relay 8CRXR.
