CircuitWerkes SX-8 Expander Chassis

8 Channel Expansion Chassis for Sicon 8 Remote Control Systems

The CircuitWerkes SX-8 is an 8-channel expander chassis designed to increase the monitoring and control capacity of an existing Sicon-8 remote control system. Built for broadcast facilities, transmitter sites, and engineering operations, this expansion unit adds additional metering, status inputs, and relay control without replacing your current Sicon-8. It integrates directly into your existing system to scale your remote monitoring capabilities.

Expand Sicon 8 to Up to 32 Total Channels

Each SX-8 adds eight additional channels of metering, status monitoring, and relay control. Up to three SX-8 chassis units can be connected to a single Sicon-8, allowing expansion up to 32 total channels. This flexibility makes it suitable for growing broadcast sites that require expanded remote control of transmitters, power systems, and auxiliary equipment.

Automatic Detection and Seamless Integration

SX-8 expanders are automatically recognized by the Sicon-8 system during power-up. Once connected, the additional channels are incorporated into the web server interface and control software without complex configuration. This automatic integration reduces setup time and ensures smooth system scaling for engineering teams.

Flexible Channel Order Configuration

The chassis order can be adjusted using internal jumper settings, allowing engineers to define the sequence of expansion modules. This provides structured system organization when multiple SX-8 units are installed, ensuring clear channel mapping within the Sicon-8 interface.

Designed for Broadcast and Remote Site Monitoring

Engineered for professional broadcast environments, the SX-8 supports expanded metering and relay control at transmitter facilities, studios, and remote technical sites. It enhances the capability of the Sicon-8 dial-up remote control system with speech features while maintaining reliable performance for mission-critical monitoring.
