Home Automation FAQ : HA Equipment : Creative Control Concepts/HCS-II : HCS-II Supervisory Controller : How many daughterboards can I install on my HCS-II?
It is recommended that you install a maximum of 4 or 5 daughterboards on an HCS-II. Installing more than this can overload the 7805 regulator and can also stress the address and data bus drivers. Creative Control Concepts is investigating the development of a daughterboard which will allow multiple HCS-II controllers to be networks and synchronized via XPRESS commands. This will allow for more devices in large, complex installations.
