Camax I/O Expansion module with 8 Digital Inputs (Pulse to Modbus Converter- 001-1228)

Product Details

The I/O expansion module can be used to expand the I/O capabilities of any system which has an RS-485 Modbus RTU master.

The 8 inputs can be used to monitor digital signals from switches, window/door contactors or fault signals from third party equipment. The digital inputs can also be used to monitor and count pulsed signals from multi utility meters such as electricity, gas and water.

The counters are backed-up in non-volatile memory in case of power failure. All data is transmitted and received from the module via its RS-485 Modbus RTU interface.
