SmartConnect 100
Smartconnect 100 is a small factor embedded box with 8 opto-isolated digital input, 8 opto- isolated outputs and 16 analog inputs
.
Smartconnect 50
Smartconnect 50 is a small factor embedded box with 8 opto-isolated digital input, 8 opto- isolated outputs and 8 analog inputs.
The SmartConnect can be easily extended with more I/O using modbus protocol through its RS-485 port. Other remote I/O can be connected with a ZigBee connection.
Smartconnect 10
Smartconnect 10 is a small factor embedded box with only an rs485 serial line and ethernet. It can be extended with modbus modules or Zigbee module.
Modbus Modules
We have selected two low cost modbus modules. The first module has 8 digital inputs et 8 digital outputs (source). The second has 8 digital inputs and 4 relays with N.C / N.O. contacts.
Modbus Wireless
In some situations, the I/O modules must be placed far from the main CPU. This can achieved by using the wireless network such as Zigbee. As depicted in the next figure, the main CPU is connected to a Zigbee gateway; I/O modules are connected to a Zigbee bridge.
