Technical Overview
Designed with meticulous attention to detail, the Industrial Controller Board stands as a pinnacle of connectivity and communication, featuring cellular, Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz), Bluetooth, and GPS capabilities. Its adaptable communication module, coupled with Over the Air Firmware Updates, ensures consistent and robust connections, while advanced security measures, including MQTTS and HTTPS with TLS encryption, bolster data privacy and integrity.
This controller’s exceptional adaptability extends to serial communication, boasting compatibility with RS485, Modbus, and CAN bus. Accompanied by six analog sensor input ports and two voltage inputs, the board’s sensor capabilities are enhanced, encompassing signals like 0-10V, 0-5V, 0-3.3V, 4-20 mA, and pulse inputs. The Industrial Controller Board facilitates precision control through its relay outputs and bypass relay, accommodating both local push buttons and software interfaces.
Furthermore, the board enables seamless coordination by supporting the linking of up to three controllers through a wired connection. This streamlines communication while maintaining efficiency through a single communication module for server interactions. The controller’s remote server communication module, positioned in a separate enclosure up to 200 feet away, ensures optimized communication setup.
Engineered for expansion and customization, the Industrial Controller Board provides two expansion slots for additional sensor inputs, voltage inputs, and relay outputs, while a USB A interface supports effortless field programming and firmware updates. Encased within a durable NEMA 4X enclosure, the controller withstands challenging environments, operating between -40°C to 85°C and adapting seamlessly to diverse industrial setups
