Automation and Control

The Barix network to real-world interface solution - for remote IO, standalone, IP based control systems or data collection applications.

Universal, Programmable I/O device server

Universal, programmable I/O device server for automation engineering in private houses, public buildings, in public transport and network infrastructures. The Barionet device covers a wide range of automation applications for machine control, temperature/humidity monitoring, door-light steering, alarming and many more. With BCL programming language the Barionet is highly adaptable to all electronic control systems.

BCL programming allows the configuration of hardware interfaces like network, I/O, relay, temperature sensor, Wiegand, Serial and 1-wire. On the control side HTTP/CGI, UDP, TCP, SNMP and Modbus/TCP are supported, other protocols can be added over BCL programming. The Barionet products enable remote control and monitoring of infrastructure over the network in order to streamline operations.

 

Applications:

  • Industrial control and monitoring, such as I/Os, temperature and voltage monitoring
  • Home automation for control of thermostats and lighting
  • Administration of distributed systems like railway stations and gas stations 
  • Web-enabling devices with RS-232 or Modbus interfaces
  • Access control and security systems driving horns or lights 
  • SNMP monitoring of existing IT-Infrastructure
