What is ExpandAlert Hub?

ExpandAlert hub connects TextAlert to external devices in the home, office or farm and/or plugs into CommandAlert to extend CommandAlert’s on-board 2-input/2-output capabilities to up to 32 inputs/outputs (by daisy-chain connecting 6 ExpandAlert units in series) .

How it works

It is a plug-and-play hardware component that allows you to:

• With TextAlert: either trigger (up to 5) devices, such as sirens and lights or receive prompts from (up to 5) devices such as existing alarms, which in turn causes TextAlert to communicate back to you via SMS
• With CommandAlert – to expand CommandAlert’s capabilities (2 input/2 output) to an additional 32 inputs and outputs that can trigger devices such as sirens and lights, generators, gates, servers, etc., or receive prompts from (up to 37) devices such as existing alarms, bore-hole level meters, temperature thermometers, electronic scales, etc., which in turn causes TextAlert to report (data or automated actions taken) back to you via sms.

Features

ExpandAlert works with:

• TextAlert (adding 5 input and 5 output capabilities).
• CommandAlert (to expand CommandAlert’s on-board 2 input/2 output capabilities to 32 inputs and outputs)

Benefits

• The additional outputs allow one to open gates, turn on lights, and trigger other external devices.
• Inputs allow external devices to interact with you via sms’ sent to you from the receiver (TextAlert or CommandAlert) to which they are connected.
