Introduction X-600M Users Manual
1.1 X-600M™ Features
Xytronix Research & Design continually works to improve its products in response to customers needs
and suggestions. The X-600M is a new revolutionary product which employs a powerful processor
together with industrial Flash memory. With increased processing power, applications such as sending
encrypted Email and wireless access are now feasible in a small industrial package.
High Reliability Design
Designed from the ground up for reliability rather than cost optimization. Built with industrial grade,
wide temperature range components. Uses Industrial grade SLC (Single Level Cell) flash memory
which offers higher reliability than the ultra dense components used in consumer products such as
cell phones. Includes transient protection on all I/O. Includes circuitry for reliability and protection
such as an independent hardware watchdog and voltage supervisor.
Easy Start Up
After making the power and Ethernet connections, you can have the X-600M automatically scan for
the presence of any ControlByWeb Ethernet modules (on the same sub-net) and for any expansion
modules connected to the X-600M ribbon cable connector. You can also automatically create a
“Dashboard” web page and populate it with all of the resources (components) supported by the
Ethernet and expansion modules. This makes it easy to start experimenting with the web page user
interface and to try out the relays and sensors.
Expandable
The X-600M provides a flexible, system level solution for monitoring and control. The X-600M can
control and monitor remote devices such as the WebRelay, WebRelay-Quad, X-310, X-320, etc.
anywhere on the Internet. A family of add-on modules can be connected directly to the X-600M.
Remote devices and expansion modules are added as needed to provide a customizable and highly
flexible monitoring and control system.
File System
The Flash file system provides a major upgrade in flexibility and capability for web based control and
monitoring. With the embedded file system, users can add custom web pages. The file system
allows data to be logged to multiple named files. Setups can be imported and exported as a file.
Dashboards, Panels, Widgets and Components
The X-600M serves dynamic web pages which are used to control and monitor relays, sensors and
other I/Os. The control/status pages are called
Dashboards and are highly flexible. The user can
create multiple dashboards as needed and customize them by placing panels, widgets and
components on the dashboard. Panels are used to group widgets together. Widgets are used to
group components together. A component is the smallest unit found on a dashboard and represents
a single I/O (a relay or temperature sensor for example.) The dashboards, panels, widgets, and
components can have custom labels. The web pages can be created, edited and tested directly from
the web browser.
A widget can represent a single external device such as a WebRelay or X-12s Eight-relay module,
or a widget may be composed of components which represent I/Os found on many different devices
across the network. Within a widget the user places components. A
component can be an on/off
button with a custom label, a temperature readout, or other resources. Components are available for
control, status, and graphing. Components can be buttons, sliders, spinners, display boxes and
graphs.
