Digital I/O card APCIe-1500

CompactPCIISAPCI Express

The PCI-Express 32 digital I/O board APCIe-1500 has 32 digital inputs/outputs, 24 V, 14 inputs are interruptible. The 16 digital power outputs are equipped with protection diodes and filters. The board is fully compatible to the PCI board APCI-1500. It is especially suited for applications like industrial I/O control, signal switching, ON/OFF monitoring of motors, lights etc. in the harsh industrial environment. The APCIe-1500 has interruptible inputs. They supersede continuous cyclical query processes (polling) for routine monitoring and evaluation tasks. This takes load off the processor and the software. At a change of state of the digital inputs the APCIe-1500 generates an interrupt, so that the system reacts on the event through the interrupt routine and herewith fulfils real-time criteria. Features 3 programmable timers Connector and software compatible to the digital I/O boards APCI-1500 for the PCI bus and CPCI-1500 for the CompactPCI bus Connector compatible to the ISA board PA 1500 Monitoring program for testing and setting the board functions Inputs: 16 optically isolated digital inputs, 24 V, including 14 interruptible inputs Reverse voltage protection All inputs are filtered Outputs: 16 optically isolated digital outputs, 10 V to 36 V Output current per channel 500 mA Timer programmable watchdog for resetting the outputs to „0“ Diagnostic report through status register at shortcircuits, overtemperature, voltage drop or watchdog Interrupt triggered through watchdog, timer, error At Power-On, reset of the outputs to „0” Short-circuit current for 16 outputs ~ 3 A typ
