Direct Input-to-Output Communication over IP
ioMirror E3000 Ethernet I/O products are designed as a cablereplacement
solution that connects remote digital input signals to output signals over an IP
network. The ioMirror E3210 provides 8 digital input channels, 8 digital output
channels, and a 10/100M Ethernet interface. Up to 8 pairs of digital input and
output signals can be exchanged over Ethernet with another ioMirror E3210, or
can be sent to a local PLC or DCS controller. Over a local area network, the
ioMirror can achieve a low signal latency (typically less than 20 ms). With
ioMirror, remote sensors can now be connected to local controllers or display
panels over copper, fiber, or wireless Ethernet infrastructures. Signals can be
transmitted over virtually unlimited distances, without noise problems.
Split Sensor Signals to 16 Different Locations
The ioMirror E3000 can split one input signal to two digital output channels
at two different IP addresses. Eight tank level signals can be monitored at 16
different display panels, all at the same time.
Local Alarm and Remote Alarm Messages for Monitoring
Connectivity
The ioMirror E3210 has a 24 VDC alarm output channel that can activate an
attached buzzer or LED display when the connection fails. In addition, both
ioMirror modules can send messages to the ioEventLog software, ensuring that at
least one of the warning messages will reach the ioEventLog software.
