Add-on functionality

Add a Touch of SPice™

Selected SPLat controllers are designed to accept one SPice board at a time.

The Touch of SPice concept provides for a range of small, generally simply but very useful add-on boards that can be used to provide special-purpose functionality to a SPLat controller. This gives you access to functions that might otherwise be difficult, expensive or all but impossible to source any other way. Our range of off the shelf SPice boards is growing all the time. Not only that, if you need a function we don't have we can make you a custom SPice board for a minor fraction of what a full custom controller could cost to develop. A custom SPice board can be cost-effective right down to a single batch of 15 units!

Xwire: possibilities unlimited

Xwire allows 10 or more controllers and/or peripherals to be interconnected

Our Xwire system bus allows multiple controllers and/or peripherals to be interconnected. It features simple, low cost wiring and easy programming. Xwire peripherals are "smart" peripheral boards, in that they have their own onboard processor and can therefore potentially provide very sophisticated functionality.

Xwire peripherals (most, if not all) will be supported by Active Templates™. These are programming tools, specific to each product, that make programming the peripheral extremely easy. Active Templates allow you to enter your specific needs into an on-screen wizard-like form, and will then automatically generate the SPLat code to do what you want.
