Irinos Measurement System
The Irinos-System can be enhanced by digital in- and outputs. These are intended to connect push buttons, foot pedals, proximity switches, lamps, valves, etc. to the measurement software. Further they can be used for data exchange between a PLC and the measurement software (e.g. start measurement, stop measurement, result ok, ...). Alternatively a ProfiNet module is available.
The speed of Bit I/O is limited in two ways:
oIt depends on the speed of the measurement PC. Usually it is not limited by the PC-hardware, but by the realtime capabilities of the operating system.
oIt depends on the communication speed between the Irinos-Boxes and between the Irinos-System and the PC.
Please note:
|
The digital in- and outputs of the Irinos-System are not intended to replace a large PC and they have no realtime-capabilities. Although it is possible to control a measurement device of even a small machine, this must be tested for each application. |
Two systems are available for digital in- and outputs:
a)The digital in- and outputs are directly integrated into the Irinos-Boxes. This is for example the case with the Irinos-Boxes IR-MASTER-KB1 or IR-DIO.
b)Separate I/O-Boxes are connected via the IO-Bus. Connection of the IO-Bus is made via the Irinos-Box IR-MASTER.
Both systems can be combined.
