eDAQ Digital Input/Output Layer

Overview

The SoMat eDAQ Digital Input/Output Layer (EDIO) is an extremely versatile layer that can measure digital inputs/outputs, pulse counters, quadrature decoders, vehicle bus, as well as GPS. The EDIO offers twenty four channels that can be used as digital inputs/outputs with twelve additional channels for wide range inputs.

Integrated in the digital channels are eighteen configurable pulse counters. One layer can also support up to two independent vehicle bus interfaces via the use of a Vehicle Bus Smart Modules.

The GPS communications port is designed to work with SoMat GPS devices.
