The Parani100 is a Bluetooth to IP gateway that connects Bluetooth devices to 10/100 Base-T Ethernet network. Supporting point to multipoint connectivity to seven points, it transmits data from each Bluetooth terminal to management station via TCP/IP at a rate of 723Kbit/s. The unit is designed for large-scale wireless installations especially in industrial, medical and banking sectors, which are traditionally fitted with serial connections. The Parani100 supports various operating modes including TCP server, TCP client, repeater, vertex and RS232 modes. TCP server mode allows management station to initiate a TCP connection to the Bluetooth device attached to the Parani100.

The new SlimLine photosensor from LC&D is the solution for daylight harvesting applications with indirect luminaires. Indirect luminaires normally throw light onto the ceiling where the photosensor is traditionally mounted. But to be operate successfully, the photosensor can not “look” directly at the source of lighting. The SlimLine provides a solution because it is mounted on the bottom of the indirect luminaire rather than on the ceiling. This allows it to “look” below the luminaire to get a more accurate light reading and be successful. Visit www.lightingcontrols.com for more information.

Loytec Americas – Starts 2006 off with the Introduction of Six new EIA-852 and EIA-709.1 Products

Loytec has over 6 new products that are now available based on their new high speed EIA-709.1 dedicated ARM7 micro controller called the LISA chip. The LISA chip incorporated into Loytec’s product line offers higher performance, new features and lower product cost. A new line of Etherent Routers are the first products to be introduced which offer higher packet through put and additional channels. In addition a product called the LIP Redundant offers the ability to do product monitoring on a wire, alarming if the wire breaks and signal recovery for both the EIA-852 and EIA-709 channels. A really hot product is the new LVIS Touch Screen Display unit enables the customer to create the display with many pages of images and bind those with a fully dynamic LNS data base. The LNS variables can be bond or poled and more excitingly the product can be connected to either the EIA-709 – FT10 channel or the Ethernet EIA-852 channel for higher network speeds.

Export, PA - American Auto-Matrix is pleased to announce the latest release in the next generation of Smart Building Solutions®: the SBC-STAT Relative Humidity Sensors as well as the more advanced functionality in other pre-released SBC-STATs. These “Smart” Sensors utilize proprietary STATbus™ technology in order to achieve a two-wire polarity insensitive network that does not consume controller physical I/O. Through proper utilization of the STATs and Relative Humidity sensors in conjunction with AAM unitary controllers, users can create custom logos on models with an LCD display, as well as view eight hours of trending from any point on the system. Air balancing can also be achieved through the STAT3 with no other software tools needed. Relative humidity sensors are accurate within +/- 2%. The three various models provided for the new Relative Humidity sensors are the SBC-RH1: no display, relative humidity only; the SBC-RH3: relative humidity only with display; and the SBC-RHT: a temperature and relative humidity sensor with complete functionality and display.
