Control-it 5040 - Optically isolated input module

Some Benefits of the 5040 Electronic Controller:

Saves Time:

• Standard screwdriver connection to your wiring - no soldering or crimping needed
• The test-mode features a simple command line for easy testing
• Hot-swapping of I/O devices makes troubleshooting hassle free

High Performance:

• Can count moving production units at up to 350 per second on Inputs 0 and 1
• Can be set to run at 3 times the speed of other units (such as the OPTO22), delivering improved accuracy of process response
• If speed is important, then addition of the Control-it 5100 or 5101 high-speed boards allows 10 times greater speed whilst maintaining accuracy

Versatile:

• Can be controlled from the serial port of any PC or laptop computer using the Control-it 5001 RS232-485 converter
• Supports the industry standard OPTO22 communications protocol and inexpensive RS485 two wire network
• The input terminals support a wide range of positive or negative switched pick-ups and sensors

Easy to Install:

• Panel or DIN rail mountable, or can be stacked with a special stacking kit
• Well labelled, robust enclosure for easy installation
• Can be used with most standard power adaptors
• All connectors can be unplugged
• The Control-it 5041 adaptor can be used for a further reduction of wiring complexity

Safe:

• Fully floating circuitry protects your computer from power spikes
• Microprocessor controlled watchdog feature disables all outputs in event of processor failure

Built -in Reliability:

• Designed to exceed international standards for noise immunity
• Complete isolation of all comms and I/O sections minimises outside interference errors
• 21 LEDs and a comprehensive trouble-shooting guide for easy diagnosis of suspected system faults

Warranty:

• Three years
