Description
The ICP DAS iP-8441-MTCP series is a 4-slot Modbus TCP I/O expansion unit to expand I-8K and I-87K series I/O modules over the Ethernet for industrial monitoring and control applications.
There are more than 50 I/O modules supported with the unit, including analog input/output, digital input/output, counter, frequency I/O modules. It is designed to be used in harsh and noisy environment, so the hardware is manufactured with wide power input range (10 ~ 30 VDC), isolated power input and can operate under wide temperature (-25 ~ +75 °C). To simplify installation and maintenance of I/O modules, it provides many useful features, such as: auto configuration, LED indicators for fault detection, dual watchdog to keep alive, programmable power on and safe values for safety.
Modbus is a very wide known protocol in the industrial manufacturing and environment monitoring fields. Many SCADA software, HMI and PLC has builtin driver to support Modbus devices. Besides, we also provide SDK on different platforms, such as Windows XP, Window CE 5.0/6.0, Linux, MiniOS7. Hence, it is easy to integrate remote I/O to customer’s applications.
Further more, the iP-8441-MTCP is also a C language based programmable controller that equipped a DOS-like OS (MiniOS7). Programmers can use C compilers that can create 16 bit executable file (*.exe) to customize the Modbus firmware which pre-installed in the iP-8841-MTCP. The SDK provides rich functions for Modbus communication, such as Modbus TCP master/slave, Modbus RTU master/salve, Modbus ASCII master/slave, etc.
