Remote Digital I/O Module

The CyMOD 4058C module is a complete remote digital I/O package that supports a total of 28 channels of digital I/O (24 input/output and 4 input). When connected to a host PC, the module provides a powerful and versatile remote data acquisition solution, up to 4000 feet from a PC.

The module has features designed to ensure the safety and accuracy of data, including a watchdog supervisory circuit that will automatically reset the module if it stops responding. A unique electro-conductive spray on the inside of the moduleýs ABS housing helps to reduce RFI (radio frequency interference) and EMI (electromagnetic interference) noise. An additional water-resistant EPCB coating on the surface of the internal circuit-board components helps ensure reliable operation in harsh environments. The module includes everything necessary for wall, DIN-rail, or piggyback mounting. Full software support for Windows 3.x/95/98/NT is available.

The module has a high-density 50-pin connector for 24 of the I/O lines. The CM 4058C package includes a 3-foot shielded cable and a TPB DIN50S terminal panel to simplify wiring. Both the CM 4058 module and the TPB DIN50S barrier strip terminal panel can be mounted onto a DIN-rail to create an organized and easily maintainable system.

The CyMOD series is designed to be completely hardware and software compatible with the industry-standard ADAM 4000 series, so CyMOD units can be seamlessly integrated into an existing remote I/O network. CyMOD modules can handle data transfers at speeds up to 38.4 Kbps and as many as 128 modules can be networked on a single system (4,000 feet max. 256-modules/8,000 feet max. using a repeater).
