Insteon Input/Output Interface Module E-mail

Image
EZIO8T is a module that allows inputs and outputs from external devices to be connected to Insteon and X10 networks at the point of need.  External events such as contact closures can be detected or monitored via three inputs.  One of the inputs can be programmed as a 1-Wire bus such that it can be used to connect sensors compatible with this protocol.  Out of the box, the unit interfaces with the Dallas Semiconductor 18B20 temperature sensor.  The inputs can trigger an Insteon group command to cause any activity by a responder in the network.  Eight outputs driven by triacs (solid-state relays) can be used to control small AC loads such as low voltage outdoor lights and railroad models.

We have lots of Phidgets sensors lying around in the lab; they may be a bit pricey, but their plug-and-play model is sure handy when you're in a hurry. This PCB makes it easy to connect these sensors to the Arduino platform." Thanks Kevin! - Link.
