Suggestion / request for Routerboard hardware

Hardware MikroTik hardware general
1

Hello,

I want to suggest for new or upgrade current RouterBoards with at least one I/O RELAY (electrically operated switch) which would be controlled through RouterOS…
That wouldn’t be big problem for Your electrical engineers…
Relay would be cool eg. to reset power supplies if on same location other RBs freeze or something like that and You want to restart them (for Output) OR for Input to add motion sensor and log activity on RB… + SCRIPTING it would be WONDERFUL!!! Etc…

And would be nice to add some kind of HARDWARE watchdog not in-software watchdog for reseting if ether/wlan ports are frozen…


Thank You and I hope You will consider about requests :slight_smile:

You can already monitor serial port signals: http://www.mikrotik.com/testdocs/ros/2.9/tools/sigwatch.php
Also, a number of routerboards have fan headers that can be connected to low power relay.

Hello,

I didn’t know for SIGWATCH…
Can You tell me how can I control fan headers to send signal to relay?

i want temperatrue sensor and voltage sensor on board so i can narrow down why the routerboard runs unstable

5

some routerboard model already have voltage monitors

Does RB433, RB433AH, RB600 has fan headers and how to control them through ROS?

7

RB433, RB433AH do have fan headers..
unter system helth you got a couple of options

I can’t find how to send signal on fan headers… If I put RELAY there…
