IQ-206 Expansion Card

The IQ-206 Expansion Card is designed to emulate an IQ-203 Control Unit.

Once installed in a PC, the IQ-206 Expansion Card allows you to control up

to four IQ-206 Expansion Units, which represent 24 single-slot IQ modules.

To operate the IQ-206 Expansion Card, you need to install the Windows

compatible IQ-200 Software on the host computer. The IQ-200 Software

used with the IQ-206 Expansion Card is identical to the software on the

IQ-203 Control Unit.
