CircuitWerkes Sicon-8, Recordable, Talking Remote Control
(with Internet Web Server & Setup/Control software included)
Affordable power for every facility
 .
The Sicon-8 is a modestly-priced, but
full-featured dial-up remote control with speech capability. Based on voice recording
technology, the Sicon-8 can speak in your staff's language because you record your
own messages.
The Sicon-8 was designed to be a complete solution for facilities with basic to
moderate control requirements. All of the I/O, including 8 channels of relays, are
included on the main board so there is no need to buy anything else to use the product.
All metering, status and control connections are on depluggable screw terminals.
An expander chassis, the SX-8, adds eight channels of metering, status & control
to an existing Sicon-8. Up to three SX-8s may be added to a Sicon-8 for a maximum
of 32 channels.
Designed to be controlled from the onboard Ethernet interface, any dial-up telephone,
an auto-answer cell phone or its serial port, the Sicon-8 gives you the control
options that you need. The onboard Web server gives access to all of the Sicon-8's
metering, Status & basic control functions & supports several simultaneous
users with 4 different access levels. The Web server requires no software
other than a Java capable Web browser to operate and works on multiple operating
systems and browsers. The dial-up control is based on proprietary voice recording
technology that lets you record your own messages, in any language, and is smoother
sounding than most other voice recording technologies.
Choosing the right remote control for your operation is a big decision. The wrong
choice can be expensive in many ways. We've created a downloadable comparison template
that you can use to compare our Sicon-8 to other brands. The PDF can be downloaded here.

the FREE software interface for the Sicon-8
The Sicon-8 software can connect to your Sicon-8
via serial port, Web server or modem. Multi-site capability lets you monitor multiple
sites from a central location. Software also makes setup a snap, but the Sicon-8
is fully functional even without the software.
The Sicon-8's Onboard Web-server:
The onboard Web server duplicates much of the Sicontroller software's control functions
and runs on any Java capable browser.
As shown below, the Web server is designed to be uncomplicated and will run on multiple
platforms and browsers, provided that they are Java capable. It even works on the
iPhone's Safari browser. Meters are updated aproximately every two seconds and the
Web server shows the current meter values, channel status and alarms.
|
The Sicon-8's Web server allows for 4
different access levels:
Reader - Can not operate any controls. All controls are hidden from readers.
Controller - Can operate any control on the main page but cannot perform or access
any setup functions
Administrator - Has access to all functions, except top level password changes.
Super-Administrator - Similar to the administrator, the Super-Admin is the only
one that can change their own password. This user level is designed to protect owners
from being locked out of the Sicon-8.
