The Total
Control module
allows to manage by air in the distance of over
1 Km, all the electric devices and the electronic
equipments that are in a house, in an office or in
a firm, without paying high costs and without having
long times of installation. The Total Control module
allows to control the status of the digital inputs,
such as switches, push-buttons, room thermostat, level
sensor, gas sensor etc; allowing to optimize or to
create the functions of a lot of electronic devices
such as automation systems, electric gates, anti theft systems, anti flood and fire-fighting
systems, thermoconditioning systems, lighting
management, video surveillance, videohousephones,
etc.
Total Control can be connected
with the computer through USB interface (Universal
Serial Bus) and, so, its installation and use are
really very simple. The communication with the control
devices of the electric consumptions is obtained in
three different ways: by radio, by conveyed
waves and by cable, by using a normal telephone
twister. In this way it's possible to use the control
device more suitable to our need. In using Total Control
the software has the most important role since it
manages in a quick and efficient way
all the connected devices and the hardware and software
resources which are in the computer. Infact, the software
besides foreseeing the initialization and the configuration
of the control devices connected, it allows to perform
all the programmings for the virtual connection of
all the devices.
The programming of the virtual
connections is run in a simple and direct way without
using some special languages. The running of the connection
is completely based on two concepts called events
and actions. The software foresees a long series of
events and actions and so, you only need to indicate
the event and the action to connect
in order to create an infinity quantity of controls.
Besides the control of the above mentioned devices,
the software given in bundle with Total Control controls
a certain number of hardware (cards, accessories,
etc.) and software (various programs for windows and
Internet) resources that are in the computer.
The m ain
technical features are:
connection to the computer through the USB
(Universal Serial Bus)interface, real plug
& play with the operative system;
connection of more than one Total Control
unities to the computer with sharing of
all the connected devices in order to increase
unlimitedly the control's capabilities;
communication with all the devices using
three different links (contemporaneously):
by radio (maximum capacity 1 km air- line),
by conveyed waves (communication by cable
through the same power-line), by cable (using
a telephone twisted with a maximum capacity
1 km point to point);
available in the internal version to the
computer (using one slot) or external;
programming and control of all the devices
and the computer resources by software without
using a special programming language;
management and control of all the resources
which are in the computer: sound card, CD
and/or DVD player, SVGA, USB video camera,
printer, fax, internet connection, joystick
port etc;
opportunity to give vocal commands, using
Vas module, in order to control the devices
and the resources, indicating the command
or the sequence of commands we like;
creation of vocal messages which could be
programmed for a total interactivity man/machine
using the Vas module, in order to obtain
from the computer some vocal answers regarding
the fulfilled commands;
opportunity to run and to control file of
personalized reports in order to control
some defined events (of the devices or of
the resources) which are considered necessary;
control of devices or of the resources using
any combination of keys in a transparent
way to windows;
control of all the devices in a manual,
automatic, timer way from remote Windows
application using the DDE (dynamic date
exchange);
control with possible creation of file report
of the communication errors with the connected
devices;
performance of any Window application through
the control of the devices and of the resources
run by Total Control;
creation of software variables (meter and
control flag) in order to get a better programming;
performance, linked with the Media Center
PVR module of monitor functions (normal
or full-screen), with the acquisition of
video sequence or single frames;
programming reproduction, linked with the
Sound module, of Wave, Midi or MPeg-1/2/4
files and audio volume regulation
programming performance, linked with a CD
and/or DVD player, of the reading of audio
tracks in a sequential or casual way;
execution, linked with a Modem Fax Voice
module, of the printing commands, sending
fax or e-mail regarding the previously programmed
events;
control, linked with the joystick, of devices
or of the resources through the pressure
of the keys or the position of the lever.
