Keypads
DSS offers fully customized keypads to fit their customers' design requirements. They also have an extensive offering of standard keypads that allows a designer to build a semi-custom system for a minimal cost. Each standard keypad is laser etched with a customer’s specified button legends, text, or company logo. Standard keypads are available in 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12 & 14-positions with customizable laser-etched markings. For even greater flexibility, DSS also offers the ultimate interface device that is reconfigurable, readdressable and relegendable – the PowerKey Pro family of keypads.
Load Controllers
The load controller is the intelligence of the system. The load controller receives switch requests from the keypad(s) or other networked devices and then processes these commands based on the current system status. The response to a switch request may be an activation or deactivation of a circuit, the start of a timed function, or, in systems with keyless ignition, the locking or unlocking of the system. The load controller then sends the system status information to the keypad display/LED or enable the backlights. DSS offers Solid State products that can be programmed in the field or preprogrammed at the factory.
Gateways
DSS's line of products also includes gateways that are designed to provide customers with simple interface solutions. Whether there is a need for greater versatility of choice in switch types and dash looks, yet enjoy all the benefits of digital power distribution or if there is a desire to bridge information to and from the NMEA 2000 environment, DSS has a low-cost solution.
