FEATURES

Bi-directional serial ports – Both models provide two serial ports for control of two independent serial devices. When configured for pass-through mode, the interfaces can pass through commands from an existing control system and also control and monitor attached devices.

Four Flex I/O ports – The Flex I/O ports can be configured as either inputs or outputs and can interface with devices such as relays, LEDs, and switches. The ports can also be configured to receive analog voltages for use with photo sensors, level feedback, and more.

IR learning capability – The IPL T SFI244 can be configured to learn IR codes from a device's IR remote, enabling Web-based control of many popular A/V devices via the network.

Global compatibility – All IP Link products use industry standard Ethernet communication protocols, including ARP, DHCP, ICMP (ping), TCP/IP, Telnet, HTTP, and SMTP.

Integral Web server – Each IP Link interface features a built-in Web server with 1.25 MB of flash memory for storing the Global Viewer management application and any user customized web pages.

High performance architecture – Web pages are served many times faster (6 Mbit/sec transfer rate) than similar products, so data is refreshed at a consistently high speed.

Multi-user support – Each IP Link device supports multiple concurrent users, improving system throughput by sending information in parallel.

Multiple levels of security with password protection – User access level authorizes limited entry to only pre-designated functions, while administrator access level permits full access to advanced settings.

Real-time clock – Programmable operating alerts, sequencing, and automatic monitoring with the internal real-time clock and calendar allow IP Link interfaces to routinely check a connected device.

Power options – For added reliability, users can power up the IPL T SF24 and IPL T SFI244 over existing Ethernet cabling (IEEE 802.3af), eliminating the need for a local power supply, or locally with the included external, international power supply.

Intuitive configuration utility – The Global Viewer Configurator, a Windows® based program makes product setup simple and easy. Based on information provided by the user, the Global Viewer Configurator creates all of the files needed to build the Global Viewer Web-based asset management application and uploads them to the interface; no HTML programming knowledge is required.

Extensive library of downloadable device drivers – Drivers for a wide variety of projectors, A/V devices and Extron products are available for download from the Extron Web site (www.extron.com).

Global Viewer Web-based asset management application – The Extron Global Viewer software is the free Web-based asset management and control application designed specifically for IP Link network interfaces. The Global Viewer enables asset management functions including proactive maintenance, event scheduling, remote technical support, and theft alerts.
