New from LD systems and part of the TIVA series is the SGP42 interface which integrates with the Questra platform and other Questra products.
It enables easy integration of buttons, sensors, indicators, and serial equipment via digital GPIOs, relay outputs, and an RS232 interface.
The device offers versatile input and output options including four configurable digital GPIOs (usable as inputs or TTL outputs), two relay outputs, and one RS232 port. These interfaces support automated sequences such as media control, lighting, and building functions. A typical use case: presence detectors or wall buttons can trigger predefined scenes such as powering up a projector, lowering a screen, and dimming the room lights, all via network control.
Its compact design and included mounting accessories allow for flexible installation, whether on surfaces, in technical enclosures, or mounted to walls.
Ideal for situations where compact network-enabled control hardware with flexible I/O is required and a simple reliable solution for professional automation tasks is expected.

The Cloud BT-2F remote Bluetooth wall-mounting input module for use with any Cloud product with an RJ45 Facility Port.
The BT-2F enables Bluetooth compatible devices such as laptops, tablets and smartphones to stream audio wirelessly to the interface, and thereby into the audio system of the Zone where the interface is installed.
The BT-2F is simple to connect using a single screened CAT5 cable (with shielded RJ45 connectors) between the RJ45 connector on the rear of the plate to one of the host unit’s Facility Ports. BT-2 uses Bluetooth 5.4.
