Monitor and control temperatures and processes on your browser from any computer (or smartphone) anywhere. Check out some Screenshots. Temperature Sensor Inputs The BCS-460 allows up to four independent temperature sensors to be monitored simultaneously. Inputs can be any NTC thermistor based sensor with a 10Kohm ambient reading. Use our sensors, or purchase/build your own. Just set the temperature coefficients that are provided by the sensor manufacturer into the BCS-460, or calculate them based on experimental data. Inputs / Outputs Along with the four temperature sensor inputs, the BCS-460 provides four 5V discrete inputs, and four web-based user inputs. All inputs can trigger controller responses. Six low-current 5V discrete outputs are provided for relay control. Each output can be set to be controlled directly, differentially by a temperature input, or under complete PID control. Affordable expansion cards are available to increase the number of digital inputs and outputs. The Digi16 expansion card adds 12 outputs and 4 inputs. The interface supports upto 4 Digi16 expansion cards, for a total of 54 outputs and 20 inputs! Advanced Data Logging Data is logged internally in the device, and displayed on your browser, or saved as a text file. The BCS-460 supports internal logging of four signals up to 4k samples each. The user can set the frequency of the samples anywhere from 1 second to 6 hours, resulting in trace lengths anywhere from 1.1 hours to 2.8 years long. Programmable Processes A revolutionary State Machine interface allows the user to program with simple and intuitive rules, giving the controller the ability to exhibit extremely complex behavior. The BCS-460 allows up to eight independent processes, each with eight states. Check out the documentation for programming examples. Open Interface API The control system from ECC utilizes a simple HTTP GET/POST mechanism to control and monitor the unit. The protocol is completely open and documented, allowing users the ability to develop third-party interfaces. Does your application require a unique GUI, or if would like to have your own data logging/graphing application? Want to link multiple BCS systems together and have them all controlled from a unified interface? The possibilities are endless. Check out our Forum to see what the community is offering. Questions?
