Hi, here's the Barix voice :) The products are quite different in that the Barionet can be programmed in a basic dialect for quite sophisticated functions (if required), connects via IP, and can be polled by SNMP, CGI, UDP or TCP (ascii protocols). You could also use much cheaper products from our range (see http://www.barix.com barix website ) like the X8 or IO12 (industrial I/O), but these have an RS-485 interface so you need to poll them with Modbus/RTU - or have the Barionet do this for you ..
