Unplug an X-Line Controller… Plug in the LX Controller… Set the address… and GO!
» Speed, Memory and Power
The computer section of the LX Controller represents a quantum leap in processing power and storage. All of the technical specs are hundreds to thousands of times more powerful than our classic X-Line controller. See our LX specifications to find out what you’re missing.
» Network Security
The years have brought advancements in technology but unfortunately increased risk as well. LX Controllers deliver our latest and strongest security features to your control networks.
» Wire Check
Advances in our 4-in-1 circuitry have taken Computrols “ease-of-installation” to a new level. When it first powers up, the LX enters “Protection Mode” and examines terminated wires for problems. If something isn’t right, “Wire Check” lets the installer know so that the problem can be fixed.

What do you want to connect to your equipment? The new LX Controller’s standard features include a high-speed USB 2.0 serial port. Computrols vision of what a modern equipment controller should include USB, which opens a doorway of possibilities and allows you to integrate thousands of plug-and-play devices on or near your equipment. From tablets to printers to cameras to thumb drives, the list of supported devices is impressive and growing.
» Configuration App
Although you can still use the trusty Computrols Hand Held Terminal, the ease and power of a Nexus 7 are hard to beat. Just plug and play! Use your Android device to set the LX IP address, view your inputs, or control your outputs. Modern and convenient.
» Standalone HVAC Control
Many Computrols clients prefer to install our current X-Line Controllers in standalone applications (with no dedicated CBAS computer). The X-Line’s Internet Protocol design makes this especially convenient. But the LX provides next-generation features that make standalone configuration irresistible. An onboard Web Server enhanced Security, onboard Graphics and History are just a few of the features that make the LX a powerful all-in-one solution
