GOcontroll Moduline L4 Home Automation

Introduction

GOcontroll Moduline L4 brings industrial reliability and secure, offline operation to home automation — flexible, durable, and built to last.

A smarter, more independent way to automate

Many smart homes rely on cloud-based platforms and multiple apps. GOcontroll offers a more robust solution with the Moduline L4 — an industrial-grade controller for fully centralized home automation.
This system connects sensors, wall switches, and relay modules to one embedded brain, creating a secure, offline control platform for lighting, blinds, and energy systems. A Node-RED dashboard gives users intuitive control from any smartphone, tablet, or PC without relying on external servers.

Industrial power for residential comfort

The GOcontroll Moduline L4 is a modular embedded controller built for tough industrial use, yet ideal for advanced home automation.
It includes eight module slots, multiple CAN interfaces, and a powerful NXP i.MX8 processor. Its CNC-milled aluminium IP67 housing ensures long service life and robust operation.

In home setups, the Moduline L4 acts as the main control hub:

• Inputs: Wall switches, motion sensors, and temperature sensors connect via 24V digital inputs.
• Outputs: Lighting, blinds, and 230V AC appliances are switched via external 24V relays or contactors.

This approach keeps the controller isolated from mains voltage while providing reliable, high-speed control for all connected systems.

Local and secure operation — no cloud required

The Moduline L4 runs on Debian Linux, offering fully offline automation that continues to work even without an internet connection.
Its integrated Node-RED environment allows users to build logic and dashboards visually — no programming experience required.
Access is available through the local network or optional Wi-Fi, keeping all automation data private and secure. The result is a dependable control system that operates independently of third-party cloud services.

Seamless control and flexible automation

Advanced automation made simple

Beyond basic control, GOcontroll enables sophisticated automation using MATLAB Simulink or Node-RED logic nodes.
Integrators can implement:

• Sunlight tracking for smart shading
• Occupancy-based lighting to save energy
• Power optimization for energy-efficient homes

All logic runs directly on the controller, ensuring fast, reliable operation without relying on external servers. This makes it ideal for villas, offices, or energy research projects where stability is essential.
