Remote control

Lan controller has the functionality of sending control signals from one device to another (using the UDP protocol). In this way, it is possible to control the OUTx output of Lan Controller, which is the Server, by using the button to short INPDx to ground of the device being the Client. Devices can be located far away from each other (even tens of kilometers), the only condition is their physical connection. However it is most useful in the local network of one facility, where one controller can share logical information from its sensors to another device.

Remote Control

  1. Enabling the function.
  2. Connection settings.
    • HOST/IP - in the case of the Client, enter the address of the Server, and on the Server set any address (necessary).
    • Port - 30000 by default, select the same on both devices.
    • Password - you should set the same on both devices.
  3. Fields Active_low - reversal of the logic output (set it on the client).
  4. Matrix INPD, EVENT => OUT, PWM - check the box the controlled input (only on the client) and outputs to be changed on the server.

Example

Lan Controller no. 1 has a twilight sensor connected, giving information about twilight via the Event function (relay switching). By controlling this function, an additional relay shorting INP1D to ground, we give a signal at twilight to remote Controller's No. 2, which also can turn on the connected relays, thus lighting the night light.

  • Server - the device that receives the packets, its outputs are controlled.
  • Client - device that sends packets, its logical inputs or virtual events Event control the device of Server type.

One device can be both Client and Server at the same time.
