The CommandFusion Solo is an IP-enabled all-in-one control system.
On-board ports include RS232 (with flow control), IR (which also operate as 1-way RS232 transmission ports), IR Blaster on 3 sides, dry contact inputs and Ethernet.
The Solo features an on-board real time clock, allowing it to perform advanced scheduling functionality.
There are two card slots that can be used to expand the Solo with additional functionality, such as DALI, IO, RS485, CFLink and more.
See the List of Cards for more details.

.
The 6-pin connector is used to communicate with RS232 devices.
These 6 pins can be used for either:
In 2 x RS232 mode:
In 1 x RS232 with flow control mode:
The 8-pin connector is for dry contact inputs. These can be used as button switch inputs, sensor inputs, etc. Anything that closes a contact can be used as an input to trigger macros via the on-board rules engine.
The 12-pin connector is for wired IR emitter outputs and 1 way RS232 (transmit only).
These can be used to send IR signals to control AV equipments, fans, airconditioning, etc.
They can also be configured to transmit RS232 messages to control external RS232 devices.
The MicroSD slot is used to expand the on-board memory via MicroSD cards.
