The HID Aero x300 is a relay and monitoring expansion panel designed to extend control capabilities within the Drawbridge system. Connected to an Aero x1100 controller, the x300 is typically used for output-driven applications such as controlling external systems and monitoring specific input conditions.
It is best suited for environments requiring multiple control points, such as elevators, lighting systems, or other auxiliary devices.
•Supports up to:
o12 control points (outputs)
o4 monitor points (inputs)
•Designed for:
oRelay-based control applications
oIntegration with external systems
•Provides flexible output control for:
oDoor-related functions
oAuxiliary automation
•Seamless integration with the x1100 controller
