Remotely control up to three contact closure relay devices over a wireless Internet connection by combining them with the Global Cache iTach for Contact Closure Devices (WiFi). The iTach features a wireless interface for easy setup, and is compatible with nearly all network-connected 3rd-party systems available.
If you have access to at least one of the three following control options, you can unleash the power of iTach on your relay devices: 1) PC-based control software, 2) iOS/Android control apps (such as iRule), or 3) a high-end control system. Yep, even if your only control system is an iPhone, you're in iTach business.
What is the Global Cache iTach?
Each one of the nine different models in the Global Cache iTach series is a simple device that allows you to connect nearly any infrared (IR), serial (RS232), or contact closure (relay) device to your home network (the Internet). Once your device is connected to the Internet through the iTach, that device becomes "IP-enabled", meaning you can access and control it over the Internet. Each iTach unit supports up to eight simultaneous network connections.
The iTach is perfect for creating an ultra-customized home automation and/or security system. With the Global Cache iTach in your control arsenal, you can add intelligence to just about any electronic device in your home or business.
Choose the Best Connection Type
The Global Cache iTach product line includes a model for each of three types of devices (IR, serial, or contact closure), as well as each type of Internet connection (Wired, WiFi, or Wired PoE).
This Contact Closure model is used to connect up to three contact closure relay devices to your network via WiFi. Please note, all other models are sold separately. This model must be connected to the network via WiFi (requires wireless Internet router) and powered by the included plug-in power adapter.
Integrate iTach into Your Control System
Global Cache, makers of the iTach, have partnered with almost every software control and home automation company out there. The iTach is widely compatible with 3rd-party systems due to Global Cache's published API, which enables anyone, anywhere to develop a driver that allows a 3rd-party system to control your iTach-connected devices.
