Description
The ControlByWeb® X-406-E is an industrial-grade, 4-channel 1-Wire multi-bus module designed for scalable temperature and humidity monitoring in large-scale environments like warehouses, cold storage facilities, and data centers. Featuring Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability, the X-406-E simplifies installation by allowing the device to be powered directly through the Ethernet cable, making it an ideal solution for deployments where dedicated power infrastructure is limited or hard to access.
Supporting up to 64 sensors (16 per channel), the X-406-E provides a robust platform for critical environmental data acquisition. As part of the 400-Series, it includes a built-in web server and a no-code Task Builder, enabling users to create custom automation logic, dashboards, and data logging without external software or recurring licensing fees. With native support for Modbus TCP/IP, MQTT, SNMP, and REST, the X-406-E integrates seamlessly into SCADA, PLC, and IIoT systems, providing a secure, vendor-neutral solution for facility and process monitoring.
Key Features
- Power over Ethernet (PoE): Simplifies installation by powering the device directly through the Ethernet cable (also supports 9–28 VDC).
- Large-Scale Monitoring: Four independent 1-Wire buses supporting up to 64 total sensors (16 per channel).
- Browser-Based Interface: Complete device management, configuration, and real-time monitoring via any standard web browser.
- No-Code Logic Builder: Create powerful automated sequences and conditional logic using the intuitive Task Builder.
- Industrial Protocol Support: Native integration with MQTT, Modbus TCP/IP, SNMP, XML, and HTTP.
- Peer-to-Peer Communication: Easily share sensor data across multiple ControlByWeb controllers without a central server.
- Secure & Reliable: Cybersecurity-focused design without a built-in OS or file system, reducing attack vectors.
- Flexible Data Logging: Scheduled and conditional logging with automated FTP exports or email alerts.
