Things you can do with the CENTRO-8M:

The CENTRO-8M is a powerful IP based automation processor, running advanced software developed by our R&D team. It is programmed with our DemoPad Designer software, and gives you complete control over automated and manual functions. Below are some examples of functions you can program the unit to perform automatically, using the advanced features listed:

• Powerful IP Networking Capabilities
connect up to 20 simultaneous client devices (iOS / Android), and communicate with many more control devices through the IP network
• Hard button remote control
Use a standard IR remote control button press to activate user-definable functions within the system, just like a button on the app
• Astronomically-aware timer events
Custom programming - for example: turn your lights on, 10 minutes after sunset, except on weekends & in the summer
• Centrally stored system variables
When one user turns a zone on, any other user (including remote ones) also know about it
• Programmable audio output
Play a custom doorbell or security alert sound through your audio system at certain times
• Programmable HDMI output
Have another input to your HDMI distrbution system, to show web pages or a photo frame slideshow programatically

Uses the same powerful logic driven macro generation routines as our control app

Added features will be available with future firmware updates
