OVERVIEW
The FNIP-8x16A is an eight channel relay module used for switching any type of
load that doesn’t exceed the specifications. Via its built-in web site and TCP/IP
communication, the outputs and inputs can be controlled and monitored from
standard network capable devices such as computers, smartphones, web-tablets,
etc. either locally or via the network.
The module can be used independently or as part of a complex control system in
residential and commercial installations.
In addition to the outputs, the FNIP-8x16A also provides local inputs for manual
control, which gives the customer the ability of using the system even before a
central controller is installed or the network is built, offering stand-alone operation.
This also improves reliability since the operation of the relays via the inputs do not
any other device.
The manual inputs are usually connected to momentary or standard wall switches
and work similarly to traditional light switches.
The inputs can also be used as independent digital inputs, for example to monitor
the status of different contact sensors or if connected to a programmed output of
a security system, its status (armed/disarmed/in alarm) can be determined
remotely.
