DLP-IO20 USB Analogue, Digital DAQ
Description
The DLP-IO20 Data-Acquisition Module is a low-cost, easy-to-use 20-channel data-acquisition system for measuring DC voltages in the range of 0-5 volts, driving 5-volt relays, controlling and monitoring processes. Each of the channels and relay contacts can be monitored and controlled via simple, multi-byte commands. Supplied with test application and software examples.

Using The DLP-IO20
The DLP-IO20 Data-Acquisition Module is a low-cost, easy-to-use data-acquisition system for analyzing AC voltages, driving 5-volt relays, controlling and monitoring processes and measuring DC voltages in the range of 0-5 volts. This module provides topside wire terminal blocks for the wiring connections. The 20 channels on the DLP-IO20 are broken down as follows: 3 outputs with high current relay/LED drivers and 17 digital I/O; 14 of which can be set to analog input mode. The DLP-IO20 also provides two latching relay contacts. Each of the channels and relay contacts can be controlled via simple, multi-byte commands. All operational power is taken from the host PC via the USB port. The mode of each I/O is automatically changed with each command sent. For example, if an I/O is set to Digital Output-High and then the Digital Input Mode is selected, the I/O is first changed to Input Mode and then the high/low state is read and returned to the host.
Supplied Software
A test application program called IO20Demo is provided with the purchase of the DLP-IO20 that runs on Windows XP/Vista and can be used to interface with and control the DLP-IO20. (Note that the Visual C++ source is also available with the purchase of the DLP-IO20.) This application is designed to demonstrate all available features: The version of the application provided for download with the DLP-IO20 targets Windows XP and Vista, but the Visual C++ 6.0 source code is available (upon purchase of the DLP-IO20) so that the application can be retargeted for different operating systems. Of course, because the unit uses a simple serial, any software that can send data to a serial port can be used to control the IO20.
Accessories

USB Active Extender USB-EXT	A USB cable cannot be used reliably used where the distance is greater than 5m. For distances greater than this, an active USB repeater is required Connect up to 4 repeaters in series No external power required USB 1.1 and 2.0 each repeater is 5m long
USB Active Extender CAT5 USB-CAT5	Overcome USB's 5m transmission limitation by using this extender along with standard network cable. Can extend USB by up to 45m. Use standard CAT 5/5e/6 RJ45 cable to interconnect works up to 45m Master - RJ45 female, USB A male via lead Remote - RJ45 female, USB A socket No external power required USB 1.1 only NOTE - not supplied with RJ45 cable - just Master and Remote units.
USB Active Extender with 4-port HUB USB-EXTHUB	Extend any USB peripheral up to 45m Use standard CAT 5/5E/6 network cable (not supplied) to interconnect units 4-port Hub on one of the units (5V power supply if devices are high current) Plug and play Supports Win 98/98SE/2000/XP and Mac OS 8.6 or higher Dimensions (HxWxD): 23x100x70mm
Write your own Program without any Programming Knowledge!
ProfiLab - a low cost graphical programming package designed for data acquisition and control applications. No programing experience is needed, programs are written by connecting function blocks together with wires. Professional user panels can be designed with custom controls, and the whole program can be compiled into a stand-alone executable file, with no run-time penalties. So, you can modify or create your own program with ProfiLab for use with the IOR4 and many other I/O hardware. Click here for more information >>
