What is A10?
Nearly all of the changes in PCC products have come about because of the introduction of our “A10” module. Since “A10” is a new term for most people, it is appropriate that we offer this short synopsis of ACT and A10: Advanced Control Technologies started on September 1, 1987 and began manufacturing Interface Control Components (or “ICC” for short) selling them to the biggest HVAC and Controls companies in the country. On November 1, 1989, ACT began selling products made for us by X-10 Ltd. Those products used the X-10 protocol to transmit command signals over existing electrical wiring. This product line is called “Powerline Control Components” (or “PCC” for short). In 1989, nearly every PCC product was made for ACT by X-10 but from the start, ACT engineers began designing new products to fill in the gaps. The TI100 was one example. It was designed and manufactured here in Indiana. It was not made by X-10 Ltd. In 1998, ACT began a project to make a completely new line of PCC products
