M-1 Central Controller

M-1

Central Controller

The M-1 is a central controller and hub of the APAV control system.

It connects to every device and component of the control system through its output ports, expansion cards and proprietary 4 wire bus.

Powered by a 32 bit microprocessor the M-1 is capable of performing high speed intricate logic calculations.

An embedded Linux OS manages the I/O operation of all ports including four RS232 output ports on DB9 male, 4 RS232/422/485 on Phoenix screw block, 8 Relay, 8 Digital I/O, 8 Infrared/one-way serial and 1 Ethernet.

Control system programs created in proprietary software are loaded into the M-1 by network. The M-1 serves the control system program(s) as HTML pages that can be accessed from any web browser enabled device.

The M-1 supports up to 3 unique graphical user interfaces for iPhone(s), iPad(s), PC(s) and other devices with different screen resolutions.

There’s no limit to the number of devices that can access the M-1.

Devices accessing the same program will be in synch with each other, however, its also possible to create programs that operate independently when limited user and separate Administration access might be desired.
