Brainboxes ED series ethernet I/O modules

Friday, 26 June, 2015 | Supplied by: RS


The Brainboxes ED series ethernet I/O modules provide various combinations of digital or analog I/O, integrated relays, serial interfaces and network gateways, which simplify the connection of devices such as process sensors, barcode scanners, scales, switches, alarms, motor starters, display controllers and mechanical transducers to the network. The outputs are able to drive resistive, capacitive or inductive loads, or loads with high inrush current.

With an operating temperature from -40°C to +80°C, the modules are suitable for building machines, control panels or I/O systems, or for modernising existing equipment. The range comprises the ED-588 with eight digital inputs and eight digital outputs; the ED-516 with 16 digital inputs; and the ED-527 with 16 digital outputs. The ED-538 features four relay drivers and eight digital inputs. The ED-549 has eight analog inputs. Each of the modules also includes an RS485 gateway. Finally, the ED-504 has four digital I/Os, an RS232/422/485 serial port and an ethernet switch. Modules featuring a thermocouple interface will soon be introduced.

The modules can be configured and monitored using any device with a web browser. The Brainboxes Multi-Platform Software is developed for the factory floor and includes a suite of APIs designed to allow simple integration into a system.
