8-Channel Input Module: The Link Between Switch and Controller

Bring the control of your camper interior to the next level with our versatile 8-channel input module. This module forms the perfect bridge between all your physical switches, sensors, or push buttons and the central Master Unit. Whether it’s turning on lights, reading a sensor status, or activating a custom scene; this module registers every single input flawlessly and communicates it instantly over the reliable SystemBus. Thanks to its compact design, you can effortlessly add 8 extra inputs to your network, ready for any smart automation.

  • The SystemBus: Provides a plug-and-play connection and lightning-fast, interference-free communication with the Master Controller.
  • Heavy-Duty M3 Terminals: Power delivery (12V and GND) for the inputs is connected via extra rugged M3 screw terminals. This guarantees a rock-solid power supply that easily withstands the vibrations of a moving vehicle.
  • Large Green Terminal Blocks: The 8 inputs are equipped with spacious, industrial-grade terminals. This keeps the wiring of your switches or sensors clean and organized, eliminating any struggle with cramped terminal openings during installation.
  • Hardware Manual Override (Test/Emergency Switches): Fail-safe by design. The module features physical switches that allow you to manually override the inputs. Should an issue ever arise with bus communication or software, you can test or activate the connected functions directly on the hardware itself. You will never be left in the dark.
  • Optical Isolation (Optocouplers): Safety first. Every single input is completely galvanically isolated from the rest of the electronics via an optocoupler (light coupler). Should an external voltage spike or short circuit occur on a switch, the rest of your network and the Master Controller are guaranteed to remain undamaged.
  • Reliable PCF8574 Chip: This field-proven I2C port expander reads the status of all 8 inputs simultaneously with extreme precision. This ensures a lightning-fast response time, allowing the Master Controller to react instantly the moment you press a button.
  • Flexible 12V Tolerance: The inputs are hardware-optimized and fully capable of handling signals up to 12V. This makes the module universally applicable for everything from simple push buttons to more complex sensors in your camper.
