The
eDAM-9017 is an ideal solution for low-cost data acquisition and
control over standard Ethernet networks. The eDAM-9017 is a 16-bit,
8-channel analogue differential input module that provides
programmable input ranges on all channels. It accepts millivoltage
inputs (±100mV, ±500mV), voltage inputs (±1V, ±5V
and ±10V) and current input (±20 mA, 4~20 mA) and provides
data to the host computer in engineering units (mV, V or mA). The
eDAM-9017 also has 2 open-collector transistor outputs, which could
be used for alarm switch or general control purposes.
The
eDAM-9017 connects to standard 10/100 LAN via a RJ45 connector and
supports the popular Modus/TCP protocol for easy integration with
most SCADA systems such as DAQFactory.
Also features built-in web server for simple monitoring and control.
EDAM
Ethernet I/O Utility Overview
The
Utility software offers a graphical interface that helps you
configure the EDAM-9000 modules. It is also very convenient to test
and monitor your remote DAQ system.
Module
IP - shows all detected devices on the Network. Using this TAB,
it is possible to select a device, and configure IP address etc.
Stream/Event
IP - In addition to TCP/IP communication protocol, EDAM-9000
supports UDP communication protocol to regularly broadcast data to
specific host PCs. Click the tab of Data Stream, then configure the
broadcasting interval and the specific IP addresses which need to
receive data from the specific EDAM-9000 I/O module. This UDP Data
Stream function broadcasts up to 8 host PCs simultaneously, and the
interval is user-defined from 50ms to 7 Days.
Input
Settings - Used to specify input ranges, and to set high and low
alarm setpoints. It is possible to assign an alarm to one of the
digital outputs, so for example, you can set the eDAM-9017 to
automatically sound an alarm when any or all of the analogue input
exceed a set limit
General
Settings - Used to show all analogue inputs and digital output status.
Built-in
Webserver
The
eDAM-9000 I/O modules all feature a built-in web server. A remote
computer can monitor and control I/O status on any eDAM-9000 modules
remotely through web browser by simply entering the eDAM-9000 IP
address is the browser bar.
