ProXR is a standard set of relay control commands that allow users to control relays by sending bytes of data. Turn relays on or off, trigger timers, flashers, and control relay groups using the ProXR command set. This document will guide you through everything you need to know to start using NCD ProXR series controllers.
Introduction This configuration guide applies to MirC/MirX Ethernet products which utilize the NCD5500 Gen 3 Ethernet module pictured below. In this guide we will cover configuring these Ethernet modules for the MirC/MirX products. MirC and MirX series products were designed to communicate with each other over a Ethernet network connection. The contact closure inputs in one location control the relays in the remote location. Before you Start (Requirements) It should be noted that these products do not work over an internet connection. Both boards must be on the same LAN. Also both boards will require an assigned static IP address.
WiFi Micro Gateway for LOSANT® Setup Instructions Introduction The NCD WiFi Micro Gateway allows the complete line of NCD sensors to communicate over the internet to Losant using a WiFi connection. The NCD Micro Gateway is very easy to use, as it only requires network connection credentials and a Losant Connection String. All sensors are fully encrypted using 128-bit AES encryption. WiFi communications is also fully encrypted for your security. To get started using the WiFi Micro Gateway, follow the steps outlined below. Losant Account Setup If you have not yet created a Losant account then proceed to https://losant.com and

Alpha Station is the successor to Base Station, which is used to test and configure older NCD devices. Base Station is now finalized, and no further changes or enhancements will be made. All future work will be focused on Alpha Station. Base
Introduction What is the Push Notification Series? The push notification series was designed for customers requiring contact closure input monitoring via push notification rather than a query based method. This means your application is free to process other tasks while listening for input status change. This opens the door to many new and exciting applications such as email/text message notification, data logging, security monitoring, and much more. These controllers can be configured to send information to a specific server via internet connection when their input status changes, or alternatively they can broadcast their input status change across all devices a

The photo shown above is a pre-production prototype of a simple Ethernet to wireless gateway, which will be used to receive all data over the Ethernet connection. The enclosed version of this device is on the way, but we will go ahead with our article for those who need to know more about the process. For this tutorial,
Wireless Sensor FAQ General Frequently asked questions How do I know if this Wireless sensor is working if there is no power light on it? We didn’t add a power led to save power, you can hit the reset button on the sensor and it will send two data packets. First data packet will indicate that the sensor is in run mode and the second data packet will contain all the sensor info, device info and sensor readings. You can find more about this in the product manual. What is the Zigmo/Wireless Router and why do I need it? Zigmo
