Our iT8 communicating thermostat is finally ready to go! You can communicate directly to the unit from your own PC or controller using RS485, or you can talk over the Internet or LAN using ASCII TCP, ModbusTCP, HTTP, etc by using the BarioNet iT8 Gateway.
The standard version of the iT8 has three 24VAC relays for Fan, Heat, & Cool. It also has two 0-10V analog outputs for valves, dampers, heat wheels, and so on. The tstat controls the i/o points in a standard fan coil sequence by default, but you can also take direct control of all the i/o points in a 'slave' mode and control everything to any custom sequence that may be specified.
If you have an application that requires a different design, please let us know and we can accomodate your request assuming that there is some volume behind it. For instance, we could easily modify the standard unit so that the 3 relays operate in a 3-speed fan configuration or in a heat pump configuration with Fan, Compressor, and Reversing valve.
