UDIN
USB Relay and Opto Input Units
|
|
Description |
|
|
|
The
UDIN range are a low-cost range of USB relay, digital I/O units for
desk-top, panel or industrial DIN rail mounting. They feature mains
rated relays capabale of switch 3A and fully opto-isolated digital
inputs. They do not require any external PSU. All units come with
both Virtual Com port drivers so that they can be used with most
legacy software packages or with a .DLL for direct programming.

Virtual
Com Port
Most
software packages that can send or receive ASCII data to a RS232
port should be able to control the UDIN range.
The
UDIN comes with a Virtual Com Port driver, which installs a
"Virtual" Com port on the PC. Software can then send and
receive ASCII data to and from this Virtual Com port and thus to the
UDIN unit.
Typical
packages that can be used include Windows HyperTerminal (and most
other terminal emulator packages), data acquisition packages such as Profilab,
DAQFactory,
LabVIEW, DasyLab, VEE, TestPoint etc. and also most SCADA Software packages.
UDIN
units are supplied with Profilab
and DAQFactory examples.
Direct
DLL programming
Programmers
can bypass the VCP route, and use direct .DLL function calls instead.
The
UDIN units are supplied with a test application complete with all
source code. This VB expamle is written using the Visual Studio
environment and required the .NET framework version 2 to run.
Test
Application >>
Examples
written using different languages will be added as time goes on.
VCP
and DLL Drivers are available for the Windows operating system,
Linux, MAC and Win CE.NET

|
|
ProfiLab
Expert is a low cost graphical programming software package 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. More

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

Active
Extender CAT5

Overcome
USB's 5m transmission limitation by using this extender along with
standard network cable. Can extend USB by up to 45m.
NOTE
- not supplied with RJ45 cable - just Master and Remote units.
