Ethernet module with 8 analog voltage inputs

The powerful and versatile Ethernet measurement technology module with Ethernet is especially designed for control systems that require multiple analog voltage inputs and digital inputs. Two digital optocoupler outputs are available as control outputs.

Analog voltage inputs

The EXDUL-581E has an analog-digital converter with eight ground-related or four differential 16-bit A/D input channels with bipolar (+/-0.63 V, +/-1.27 V, +/-2.55 V, +/-5.1 V, +/-10.2 V) input voltage ranges. The conversion is triggered including the associated configuration of the A/D components (range/channel selection) via software command.

Digital inputs and outputs via optocouplers

The Ethernet measurement technology module EXDUL-581E also has eight digital optocoupler inputs and two digital outputs with galvanic isolation. The bipolar optocoupler inputs are protected with additional overvoltage protection diodes. The optocoupler outputs, which are protected with a reverse polarity protection diode, can switch a maximum current of 150 mA.

Webpage

The module can be configured in a user-friendly manner via the integrated web page. A simple function test is also possible.

Communication via TCP/IP connection

Communication between the PC and the module takes place by sending and receiving byte arrays via a stable TCP/IP connection, which is secured by a handshake protocol.

Power supply

External power source

The module is supplied with the necessary operating voltage between 10 and 30 volts via an external voltage source via terminals 23 and 24.

LCD-display

The programmable LCD display enables the display of digital I/O status information or programmable user-specific data. Two lines with 16 characters each are available.

Connection and assembly

The connections for the power supply, like the connections for the input and output optocouplers, are connected to a 24-pin screw terminal block. The compact housing allows use as a mobile module on a notebook and as a control module in control and mechanical engineering with simple wall mounting or uncomplicated mounting on DIN EN mounting rails.

Software, drivers, programming languages

No driver is required for the EXDUL-581E Ethernet module. A network connection from a PC (network card with driver) or mobile device is required. For direct access to the module, the TCP/IP libraries available in many high-level languages such as C, C++, C#, Visual Basic or Java are required.
