IO Transceiver

This companion app is used to configure and view parameters of the wireless input / output transceiver of NIST Control Systems (Pty) Ltd called the IO Transceiver.

The IO Transceiver has 2 Relay Outputs, 2 Galvanically isolated 5V tied inputs (use dry-contacts to control these inputs), 2 Galvanically isolated 4 to 20mA Analogue Outputs, 2 Analogue inputs (0 to 5 VDC OR 0 to 20mA). It also makes use of a LoRA radio to create a local area network (thus NOT LoRA WAN connected, thus no monthly fees) via a proprietary TDMA mesh protocol.

PHYSICAL PRESENCE VERIFICATION REQUIRED (via press of a button on the IO Transceiver device) TO ENABLE PARAMETER EDITING.

Use this app to:
- Commission nodes into a new network (2 to 15 nodes per network)
- Replace dead nodes (thus allowing the network to recover full functionality after a node was damaged beyond repair)
- Configure Relay Output logic (based on the status of ONE or MANY inputs in the network via up to 8 standard logic operands: NOT, AND, NAND, OR, NOR, XOR and XNOR)
- Configure Analogue Outputs (link with single Analogue Input in the network with optional signal inversion)
- Capture the GPS coordinates of each node for viewing on an in-app map.
- Uncommission a node from the network (for relocation purposes).

By being connected via Bluetooth to ANY node in the network:
- All input and output states of the entire network can be viewed.
- The RSSI of the entire network can be viewed
