Remote Analog Output Digital I/O Pod
These units each contain eight independent 12-bit digital-to-analog converters (DACs) and amplifiers for voltage outputs and voltage-to-current conversion. The DACs may be updated in a channel-by-channel mode or simultaneously. There are eight channels of voltage output and eight corresponding channels of 4-20mA current output. The output voltage ranges are software selectable. Calibration is performed by software. Factory calibration constants are stored in the EEPROM memory and can be updated by disconnecting the I/O wiring and entering software calibration mode. The units have analog voltage ranges of 0-5V, 0-10V, and ±5V, all at up to 10mA. Model RDAG12-8 is packaged in a NEMA4-compliant enclosure.
Features
Remote intelligent analog output and digital I/O units with opto-isolated RS-485 serial interface to host computer
Eight 12-bit analog current (4-20mA) and voltage outputs <
Software selectable voltage ranges of 0-5V, 0-10V, ±5V
Seven bits of digital I/O configured on a bit-by-bit basis as either inputs or high-current outputs.
Field connections accomplished via 50-pin removable screw terminals.
Onboard 16-bit 8031 compatible microcontroller with 32K SRAM and EEPROM
Watchdog circuit for reset on power-up and microprocessor failure
Protective metal T-Box for high-power model (RDAG12-8H)
Protective NEMA4 enclosure for harsh atmospheric and marine environments (RDAG12-8 only)
High-Power Model can drive loads up to 250mA per channel
