RTI XP-8v Control Processor

Experience the ultimate in custom control programming with the most powerful RTI control system processor.

The XP-8v delivers maximum processing power for control and automation of the most advanced intelligent offices, smart homes, and hospitality control systems. This third-generation professional control processor features expanded inputs and outputs. The XP-8v leverages the extensive RTI driver database to seamlessly integrate thousands of third-party devices across audio and video distribution, lighting control integration, automated shades, security systems, HVAC automation, and beyond.

Advanced connectivity delivers control via IP, RS-232, infrared, relays, and sensing to support the complete RTI ecosystem and connected subsystems. Easy expansion capabilities using multiple processors and the comprehensive line of RTI accessory devices make complex commercial control systems effortless to scale. The XP-8v programs efficiently with Integration Designer software, RTI's award-winning custom integration platform.

Enhanced performance combined with real-time, multitasking operating system, exceptional expandability, and compatibility with any RTI controller or app make the XP-8v the perfect solution for large-scale residential, office control, sports bar, education and other demanding control solutions.

2-Way Communication

Convenient and reliable control with status feedback from controlled devices such as on/off or arm/disarm status, dimming value of lights, playlists, available stations.

RS-232 Control

Eight control ports for 3-wire connection with the capability of polling status feedback from controlled devices or systems.

Relay Switching

Eight built-in low voltage dry contacts that provide contact closure or switching control for loads up to 3A/30VDC (external power supply required).

Multi-Purpose Input/Output / Infrared

Eight Multi-Purpose Input/Output control ports that allows for infrared control with infrared emitters, blasters and repeaters and connecting voltage sensors or RS-232 communication modules.

Sense Input / Voltage Trigger Outputs

Eight programmable 100mA/2VDC outputs to control and high voltage external relay in amplifiers or other devices to turn them on or off when a sense input detects contact closure from switches, windows or doors or when the sense input reaches a voltage input threshold. Sense inputs can also be used to trigger a programmed control command or macro.

Expansion Port

Proprietary communication port that allows bidirectional control communication with RTI touch panels and keypads.

10/100 BaseT Ethernet Port

Standard 10/100 BaseT network connection for bidirectional control communication with RTI remotes, touch panels and devices that are controlled over IP network.

Zigbee Connection

Standard wireless Zigbee connection for bidirectional control communication with RTI remotes via ZM-24 Zigbee transceiver module.

RF 433 MHz Communication

Wireless RF communication on the 433 MHz band for unidirectional control communication with RTI remotes.

Astronomical Clock

Built-in clock that syncs through an internet connection allows to schedule time-based events to automate all aspects of the installed environment, including climate, lighting, music, and much more.

Rack-Mountable

Allows for mounting the unit into a standard 19” wide rack or placing on any surface using the included feet.

Why Choose the RTI XP-8v?

At the top of the food chain in the RTI control universe, the RTI XP-8v Control Processor is built for projects where “powerful” isn’t just a nice idea — it’s the baseline. This third-generation processor throws serious muscle at large smart homes, intelligent offices, hospitality venues and complex commercial installs, delivering the kind of processing headroom that keeps sprawling systems running smoothly without breaking a sweat. With deep integration through RTI’s massive driver library, it can pull thousands of third-party devices into a single, cohesive experience — from audio and video distribution to lighting, shades, security and HVAC — all talking nicely together. Connectivity is equally stacked with IP, RS-232, IR, relays and sensing, while expansion options make scaling up big installations refreshingly straightforward. Add the real-time multitasking operating system, efficient programming via Integration Designer, and thoughtful touches like an astronomical clock and robust I/O layout, and the XP-8v ends up feeling less like a simple controller and more like the brilliant brain behind a seriously sophisticated automation system.
