The ioLogik E12000 remote Ethernet I/O series has gained a powerful new peer-to-peer communications technology that enables reproduction of I/O signals and extended data transmissions over Ethernet. The ioLogik E1200 I/O module can now connect I/O sensors to the ioLogik E1200 output module over copper, fibre or wireless Ethernet infrastructure to achieve savings on cabling and wiring. With this technology, digital and analogue signals can be duplicated over virtually unlimited distances with no host PC, PLC, or controller needed, and without any noise interference.
Since peer-to-peer communication supports channel-to-channel mapping, the ioLogik E1200 allows simultaneous multiple target transmission, and also supports up to 16-channel transmission over Ethernet, based on an emitter and receiver I/O pair. Moreover, destination socket ports can be specified individually for each channel map to create flexibility if the remote ioLogiks are installed behind a router or firewall.
For output control, the device can use ‘safe mode’ configuration to help detect network failures. This preventive function prompts the output ioLogik to display a warning flash when the network disconnects. The output will then return to the latest signal status, or to a preset value depending on the configuration.
The ioLogik E1200’s two Ethernet ports come with a built-in switch that enable daisy chains of multiple network devices. The cascading connections can easily create the multi-drop I/O networks that are commonly used for factory automation, security and surveillance systems, tunnel monitoring, and other industrial applications. The two Ethernet ports can alternatively be used to construct a backup link to ensure network redundancy and stability.
The unit supports push-based Active OPC Server to achieve faster communication with scada systems. With Moxa’s free Active OPC Server software, the ioLogik E1200 uses event driven ‘active tags’ to deliver instant I/O status reports and reduce network traffic.
