Few simple clicks sets up Ethernet I/O module
Boasting a multitude of features, the ICP DAS WISE-5800 is a user-defined Distributed Ethernet I/O Module designed for remote logic control and monitoring in stock at Amplicon. A built-in web server interface allows users to implement IF-THEN-ELSE control logic operations in just a few simple clicks, eliminating the need for hours of programming and debugging, and ideal for users who are not familiar with programming and coding.
It also provides data logging functionality and can be configured to read and take values from the I/O channel, on a triggered event or on a timed basis. The data collected from the unit can then be handled by microSD using the slot available or via email/FTP which can be setup through the web server interface.
The module also boasts flexibility in the applications field being able to support XW-boards through the use of an I/O expansion bus that can implement D/I, D/O, A/D and D/A functions.
The WISE-5800 can be easily integrated and used with existing IAS devices and master/slave systems. This is due to Modbus RTU being an open RS-232/RS485 serial protocol, derived from the master/slave architecture, which is widely used in Industrial Automation Systems (IAS). The ease of integration can be further seen as it supports TCP/RTU protocols, making it compatible with SCADA systems.
Rhys Murphy, Measurement and Control Product Specialist at Amplicon commented: “The WISE-5800 is an excellent product for anyone with little programming experience who needs to set up remote logic and monitoring applications. Its simplicity, user-friendly functions and flexibility, combined with an easy setup keeps costs and hassle to a minimum!’
