The IO-204 Monitor & Control Module helps bridge the gap between the physical world and the World Wide Web. The IO-204 module and online tools at www.ioBridge.com allow you to easily get your projects on the web. There is no need to run a home web server or track ever changing dynamic IP addresses. The IO-204 module takes care of the internet connectivity and the user customizable widgets on the ioBridge website remove the need for complex programming. Just plug in your IO-204 module, register on the ioBridge website and within minutes, you'll be interacting with lights, switches, servos, sensors and microcontrollers. Keep your widgets private on your secure ioBridge dashboard, use them from your mobile phone or publish them on your website for the entire world to enjoy!

Control up to 4 R/C servos simultaneously. Each servo can be set with its own position and speed. The output of the servo headers is 4 separate PWM signal, power, and ground lines.

Note: Servos use quite a bit of power. If you plan on driving more than two standard sized servo, a higher current power supply will be required. Depending on the load driven by the servos, the 1.6A supply can handle 4 servos while the 4.0A supply can handle 8 servos.

Caution: Don't plug or unplug servos while the system is powered. Doing so may create a power spike that damages the Servo Controller Board, causing it to overheat. Only apply power to the IO-204 module after the servo(s) have been attached to the controller board and the controller board has been inserted into an I/O channel.

Used in conjunction with the Powerhouse PSC04 X10 Interface Module (US, Japan), XM10E (Euro Plug), or XM10U (UK), the X10 Smart Board relays commands from the web to any X10 outlet in your home. The X10 Smart Board also includes the 6-pin cable to connect to the X10 Interface.

Allow your IO-204 module to send and receive serial data! Communicate with serial based sensors, microcontrollers (Basic Stamp, Arduino...), computer serial ports, etc. Settings are web configurable and have a wide range of support.

• Send and receive data to web widgets
• Link two serial smart boards and create a "virtual serial cable" between any two modules worldwide!
• TX pin uses 5v logic, RX pin can accept 3v, 5v or RS-232 level voltages
• Send/Receive up to 50 bytes per message
• RTS line to signal full input buffer
• Baud rates of 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600 & 19200
• Inverted and Non-Inverted Mode
• 8 data bits, no-parity, 1 stop bit
• 200 byte input buffer
• Configurable TX pacing can add a delay between output bytes

The I/O Channel Tester makes exploring all the capabilities of the IO-204 Module quick and easy. Red and green LEDs indicate the state of the digital output line while a slider switch and momentary push button provide a means of changing the digital input. Also, a thumb wheel potentiometer allows for adjustment to the analog input from 0 to 5v.

Accurately measure temperature with this weatherized and submersible 7 ft. temperature probe. The probe works within a range of -40°F to 220°F (-40°C to 104°C) and has an I/O connector to allow the digital input and output signals, power, and ground to pass through to other devices.

Switch larger voltages and currents with this Relay Board. The DPDT relay is rated for 5A and screw terminals make for quick interfacing. An I/O channel connector on the opposite end of the board allows I/O signals to pass through to other devices.

Monitor the ambient light. Sensitivity is easily adjusted using the onboard potentiometer. The Ambient Light Sensor also features an I/O connector to allow the digital signals and power to pass through to other devices.

Easily interface your project to an I/O channel with your own circuit using this screw terminal board.

Controlled by a digital output, this buzzer board emits a 2kHz tone at 85dB. A pass-though connector allows additional devices to access I/O channel lines.

This 16x2 serial LCD display plugs directly into an I/O channel and controlled from a serial output widget. Cable not included. More info is available in our wiki.

• Adjustable backlight and contrast
• 16x2 characters
• Scrolling messages up to 100 characters
• Configurable backlight timer
