Up to 12 devices could be controlled without the need for any programming on the part of the user. Five types of widgets are available that includes Relay Button, Relay Status, A/D Meter, Customized Button and Label. These work well with the relay boards of the National Control Devices.
Relay button widgets will let you switch on/off relays; while relay status widget will tell you the relay status. A/D meter channel will read and show the value read via one of the A/D channel of the relay board. Sending data to any other connected serial port or network devices is possible without the relay boards through customized button widgets.

All it takes is a click of the button. For more than 16 widgets you will need to invest in the Pro version of the tool. This is a good product and has many useful features. If you have a need, here is a good candidate for trying out.
