Home Automation

The WTE TReX is well suited to be incorporated into home automation systems.  When the WTE TReX-PLC is connected to various third party sensors or WTE remote transmitters, many home automation tasks can be achieved.  The TReX can monitor - and directly message across the home, or via the internet to your smart devices via secure MQTT protocols.
