I/O
IRIS I/O
IRIS-IO can be used for monitoring and controlling machines without a serial
interface and monitoring sensors.
Like all IRIS models the IRIS-IO has timers, counters and fl ags and can create
messages to be sent to other units and to the end-user. The created messages
can, beside fi xed text strings, contain different parameters e.g. status for I/O,
ags, timers and counters, ID and alias for the unit, and RSSI.
It has six inputs, which can be confi gured as digital or analogue, and four digital
outputs.
The inputs can be scaled with an offset. This makes it possible for the unit to
report values from sensors with correct units. Each input has two limits that
the unit can react on e.g. a unit can send an alarm message when a certain
temperature is exceeded.
IRIS System
An IRIS system consists of a group of IRIS units arranged in a tree structure
connected to each other by radio.
The top unit is the concentrator in the system and the connection to end-user
via, for example, a serial interface, a web-module or a GSM-module. The other
units in the system are connected to various electronic equipments or acts as
repeaters to enable communication over longer distances.
There are different types of IRIS-units with different functions. Digital and
analogue inputs, digital outputs, serial interface, timers and counters are
examples of some of the functions available.
It is possible to confi gure the IRIS-units either before setting up the system on
location or after using the radio link or the serial interface.
