Sealevel Systems Products:

Output Relay Control – NetBotz + SeaI/O-450U:

The NetBotz 500 and NetBotz 420 can send electronic control signals using the SeaI/O-450U, which provides 16 low-current dry contact output switch closures to turn a variety of small devices on or off. Examples are door locks, light switches, and flashing lights. Output relay actions can be executed manually through the Advanced View or Basic View interfaces, or can be configured as automatic alert actions in response to a threshold event.

The SeaI/O-450U connects directly to a NetBotz 500 or 420 USB port using a USB cable (included with the 450U). The SeaI/O-450U provides 16 SPDT Form C relays that are controlled by the NetBotz appliance. Each relay output is rated for switching up to 60VDC @ 2A. The outputs are grouped in four-bit segments that each share a common for easy wiring.

The output control functions can be accessed interactively through the NetBotz Advanced View interface. ‘Buttons’ that activate a relay can be configured to appear on camera images in the AV Camera View. Output control functions also can be triggered in response to any environmental or camera alert. Each relay port can be individually controlled, and each has an authorized user list to specify which users of the 500 can execute that function.

Up to 4 SeaI/O-450Us can be connected to a NetBotz 500 or 420. (Note that if 4 are connected to a NetBotz 420, that will use up the limit of 4 non-camera pods).

Hi-Density Dry Contact Monitoring – NetBotz + SeaI/O-462U

The external sensor ports on NetBotz monitoring appliances and Sensor Pods support dry contact sensors. In applications where customers need to connect a few dry contact sensors, the external sensor ports are a good solution. However, some applications require connecting large numbers of dry contact sensors to a NetBotz appliance. In these cases, using the SeaI/O-462U USB to 96 Channel TTL Digital Interface is a more cost-effective solution.

The SeaI/O-462U connects to the NetBotz 500 or 420 via a USB cable (included with the 462U). The DB78 to Ribbon Cable connects the SeaI/O-462U to the Terminal Block Kit.

Up to 2 SeaI/O-462Us can be connected to a NetBotz 500, and 1 SeaI/O-462U is supported on a NetBotz 420.

Note that all ports are configured as inputs when a SeaI/O- 462U is connected to a NetBotz appliance (the 462U does have the capability to generate output signals, but this is not supported by the NetBotz appliance).

Note that NetBotz also supports the Sealevel PIO-48 (Item# 8203) for customers who need high-density dry contact inputs. However, SeaLevel is phasing out the PIO- 48, so the SeaI/O-462U should be specified for new applications.
