Electronic Control Modules (Clock Modules)Electronic control modules are the heart and brain of the system. They power the Bus network enabling many modules to operate without a separate power supply. They also hold the main program and initiate and control the communication between all the modules.

Display Interface ModulesThe system offers a range of display interface modules providing full colour touch screens with multiple pages and connection to Apple and Android touch screen devices.

Switch Interface ModulesE-Plex has a range of switch interfaces for users. From simple but flexible rocker switch arrays, through multi touch region backlit touch switches. E-Plex also interfaces to market leading third party products such as EnOcean wireless light switches.

Digital I/O, DC Power & Motor ModulesA selection of DC power control modules can be used to integrate switched DC power to external devices and systems, the modules can also be configured to act as digital inputs from external DC systems.

Engine & Equipment ModulesA range of open and dedicated control modules exist covering CAN protocol to communicate with engine controllers and other management systems and a dedicated range of Victron modules to provide a seamless integration of their product line.

Tanks & HVAC ModulesE-Plex provides a range of pressure and resistive tank sender modules to integrate, fuel water and other tanked liquids into the system for monitoring and control, temperature and other environmental sensors are also available.

EP3 Cable SystemE-Plex EP3 ’plug and play’ bus connection system is a durable waterproof cable that’s simple to install requiring no tools, also available is a seven way distribution point module. To bridge between two independent E-Plex systems we supply a bridging module.

AC Power & Lighting ModulesA range of AC distribution and control modules are available to allow power, monitoring and control of your AC systems and provide integration into E-Plex.

DC Power & Relay ModulesWe also offer a range of Volt free relay modules for control of clean contact devices and DC power switching, also DC distribution boards with battery isolation and monitoring.

The integration of all electronic systems into a common shell with the ability to distribute the information simultaneously to strategically located control and monitoring stations is becoming the standard rather than the exception.

E-Plex is the next-generation multiplexing technology for vehicle developers and boat builders.

The E-Plex product line is comprised of intuitive user interfaces, power distribution modules, machine interface modules, sensors and software. These components electronically connect engines, generators, lighting, HVAC,

audio/video and other equipment. The result is a seamless monitoring and control solution with dramatically increased system functionality.

Powered by a patented multiplexing technology that allows power and data to be transported over a simple, two-wire bus, E-Plex offers scalable, flexible solutions at competitive costs.

With distinct advantages in hardware, software and user interfaces, E-Plex enables simple and cost-effective system integration. E-Plex offers a total system solution that can be brought to market very quickly offering unmatched value.

Bespoke User Interface Designs, Simple Two-Wire Bus & Fast Implementation

Product RangeIntuitive user interfaces, power distribution modules, machine interface modules, sensors and software.

E-Logic SoftwareE-Logic is a software program used to design, configure, and test E-Plex systems. E-Logic Software is compatible with Microsoft Windows 7, 8.1 and 10 (32-bit & 64-bit).

E-Plex - System Examples

Numarine - System Example

Sovereign - System Example

With the introduction of the 26XP series Numarine once again wanted to use the effective, reliable and flexible E-Plex system they had incorporated into other lines. Overall, the 26XP E-Plex system provides control and monitoring from one touchscreen panel and an iPad interface, giving mobile as well

as static visuals for a wide range of elements from generators to batteries to bilge pumps. The system also includes sophisticated lighting control. However, as with all Numarine builds, 26XP owners have the opportunity to submit specific requests at build stage for their interfaces and controls.

Marine Systems

Modern boats, whether they are production or individual builds need sophisticated power and monitoring solutions in order to integrate onboard systems in a seamless and intuitive way. Boat owners are increasingly looking for stylish, informative, easy to use interfaces that allow them access quickly and easily all the functionality of their boat.

Vehicle Systems

Specialist vehicles builders have seen the power of E-Plex by integrating their power and monitoring systems in one easy to use, innovative system. With the ability to easily incorporate the modular system during build, vehicle designers can easily install E-Plex modules using their own staff; and the design of the screens can mirror their brand and style.

SOVEREIGNHORSEBOXES

A long standing customer of E-Plex technology, Sovereign have built a range of horseboxes using the multiplexing technology to deliver high end technology to their discerning customers. Within the horseboxes the E-Plex system controls the majority of the domestic power requirements via the main

control panel, and via the remote iPad control. The control panels have numerous screens, all branded as needed, and allow pre-programming and on-going monitoring of all elements of the system.
