Card effects PCI Bus high speed analogue output
For industrial PCI Bus applications where high-speed, continuous analogue output or real-time waveform functions are required, an advanced analogue output card is effective.
Units with between one and sixteen ports are available to provide a solution in a wide range of applications.
ADAM 4570 and 4571 provide two and one ports respectively.
The units interface between RS-232/422/485 and the Ethernet.
ADAM modules support 10/100 Mbps base-T standard, and have other key features that include an advanced security mechanism to protect against unauthorized access, easy to maintain remote download software, and an auto-detecting configuration utility.
ADAM 4570 and 4571 are particularly suited to factory automation, SCADA and transportation applications.
The EDG-4504, 4508 and 4516 are industrial strength, network based serial device servers for connecting four RS-232/422/485 ports (EDG-4504), or eight to sixteen RS-232 ports (EDG-4508/4516), directly to a TCP/IP Ethernet or Internet network.
All three units have functions such as advanced security and automatic connection recovery.
Key specification features include: An auto-detect 10/100Mbps Ethernet interface, the ability for RS-232 devices to be shared by multiple hosts and automatic RS-485 data flow control.
Advantech's EDG units are housed in enclosures that are designed for easy rack mounting.
This helps to simplify operation, maintenance and administration.
Tx/Rx LEDs are used to indicate data transmission for all the ports. Request a free brochure from Advantech (UK) ...
