Default WebControl™ Universal Industrial Controller

The WebControl™ Universal Industrial Controller is a 3.5' x 3.125' PCB that
has enough hardware & software power to perform a lot of difference functions.

CAI Networks - WebControl™ - Industrial Controller over TCP/IP network


I've got mine plugged into my Fios router.
It's got a little 'website' at 192.168.1.15 where you can set it up and/or load in a program.

Tonight, I got it configured to set it's own RTC (real time clock) from a website. pool.ntp.org

I've also configured the Email setup so it will send Emails to my alternate Email address.
Here's what my first email looked like..

This is your last notice. my text

Temperature Sensors:

Humidity Sensor:
H=0%

TTL Output States:
TTL1=0 TTL2=0 TTL3=0 TTL4=0 TTL5=0 TTL6=0 TTL7=0 TTL8=0

So far, I can see a lot of possibilities for this controller.
It looks simple to program, and setting it up to control SSRs,
read sensors etc seems to make this board idea for DIY heating and cooling controls.

"DS1822 Temperature Sensor Input
The temperature sensor input allows up to eight Maxim DS1822/DS18B20 1-wire temperature sensors to be connected.
These sensors can then display the temperature via the HTTP server or be used as inputs to the Boolean engine controlling the TTL output port."



I'm hoping to set this up on the web, so I can log in from elsewhere and read and/or set control lines. (The TTL lines can drive SSRs directly)!!
