| Ethernet / USB-based Remote I/O System |
| I/O Controllers |
|
| n Integrated CPU and firmware. Remote I/O easily controlled from your PC |
This ethernet-based remote I/O system is configured by interconnecting I/O device modules onto an ultra-compact Controller Module. This system can be used in a wide-range of applications and controlled using a PC or in coordination with an F&eIT Server. |
 |
NEW: CPU-CA20(FIT)GY High-speed / advanced-functions
| < 3 times faster than the previous model [CPU-CA10(FIT)GY] |
| |
The CPU-CA20(FIT)GY uses an SH4 240 MHz CPU and supports 100 Mbps (100 BASE-TX) ethernet, ensuring faster I/O and communication processing. Achieves higher speed communication with a response time that is roughly 1/3 (1.5 msec to 0.5 msec)* that of the previous model.
* Variations due to operating environment |
| < Increased number of units can interconnect in same network |
| |
In the standalone startup mode (w/out I/O Assist Server Unit), up to 128 units can be installed on the same network. |
|
Power Supplies Optional.  |
| Fan-less, Compact Design |
| Utilizing a low-heat generating CPU, these fanless I/O Controllers run on minimal power. Their compact design (94 mm x 64.7 mm) requires little installation space. |
| DDE Communication with Excel and SCADA (HMI) Software |
| DDE and SuiteLink server FIT-SVR(W32) (included with controllers) enable communication to be controlled by software that supports DDE client functions such as Microsoft® Excel or Wonderware InTouch®. |
| Computer-based Remote Control |
| The Windows® drivers that are provided enable remote control of the I/O on a networked machine running in a Windows® environment. The I/O can be controlled in a non-Windows environment through the use of the socket functions. |
| Configuration Example 1 Computer-based Control |
| |
When multiple I/O Controllers are used, it is recommend that you use the I/O Assist Server Unit [SVR-IOA(FIT)GY] gathering information. |
| |
 |
|
| Configuration Example 2 Program-less remote monitoring and control |
| |
A remote monitoring and control system can be design without the aid of a program by using the Monitoring & Control Server Unit [SVR-MMF(FIT)GY]. |
| |
 |
|
| Configuration Example 3 Remote I/O Control via ACTIVE TOUCH® |
| |
You can use CONTEC's ACTIVE TOUCH®, HMI Programmable Display, as a control terminal for Ethernetbased remote I/O systems. In addition to monitoring the status of permanently installed remote I/O systems, user interface functions can easily be added on. |
