manual LAN Controller V2.0 – Firmware: HOME v. 3.13 and ISP v. 2.09 – LANKONT-002

LAN Controller

LAN Controller is a simple, but innovative device which has long been lacking in the mar-
ket network solutions. A small board serves as a web server which presents the various
sensor readings and allows you to remotely control up to 6 outputs. For far rom socket
installation board could be powered by passive PoE. In order to expand the uses of our
Lan Controller we introduced two types of management software (firmware) suitable for
different applications. In both versions, in addition to the main page of the Control Pa-
nel from the sensor readings are tabs: Events Config for programming an array of events,
Scheduler for programming timed events and the Network Config for all other settings.
Differences (described further below) between firmware versions are as follows: 2.XX - ISP
version - contains an additional tab to set Watchdog to monitor 5-five network devices.
3.XX - Home edition - is devoid of tabs Watchdog, but have been added: supports sen-
sor DHT22, reading to 6 temperature probes DS18B20, working digital inputs as bistable
switches - to use wall light switches. Changing the firmware is possible by the user pro-
gram LAN Controller Tools.exe (Windows XP) or via the TFTP protocol - as described in this
manual at p. 25. In Accessory (www.tinycontrol.eu) are presented all sensors and upgrade
kits compatible with Lan Controller.

Examples of applications

ISP
• watchdog function to checking TCP/IP connection and launch outputs if hanging happen
• temperature, supply voltage and person occupancy control in server rooms
• weather condition report on the occasion of IP cameras views
Home control
• home electric stove control (automatically or remote)
• turning on/off home lightening remote, by scheduler or by event, controlling intensity
• turning off TV box if remote is other person hands ;-)
• irrigation control - you don't need visit your garage to modify irrigation time or you can
turn sprayer precisely in the moment when your favorite neighbor passes near ;-)
Home installations
• temperature controlling and simple automation in your heating system
• temperature and pressure controlling in solar thermal installations
• measurements of heat pump operation
• monitoring of grid voltage and automatic switching to backup with mail notification
• remote control (by LAN or wirelesslan) understands as forwarding command to one of
output of Lan controller from input of other Lan controller
Renewable energy
• measurements of solar cells work
• measurements of wind turbines
• measurements of charging battery
• measurements of power consuming
Agriculture
• Irigation systems
• Animal food processing automatization
