ADAM-5510M
ADAM-5510E
Introduction
The ADAM-5510M AND ADAM-5510E are ideal for PC-based data acquisition and control applications. They are compact, controllers with an Intel x86- based CPU running Datalight
ROM-DOS. Built-in battery backup SRAM is the best choice for complex logic or data storage applications. For professional C/C++ programmers, the ADAM-5510M AND ADAM-
5510E application programs may be written and compiled in Borland C++ 3.0, and downloaded to the ADAM-5510M AND ADAM-5510E. With the power of the ADAM-5510M AND
ADAM-5510E, users can easily accomplish specialized functions, which are difficult with traditional controllers. Each ADAM-5510M AND ADAM-5510E system can handle up to 4
or 8 I/0 slots (up to 64 or 128 I/O points).
