ADwin-Pro
system
The
ADwin-Pro
system is an external processing system with modular expan-
sion options. Depending on applications, the different enclosures can be
equipped with
ADwin-Pro
modules.
Since middle of 2005 there are 2 versions of
ADwin-Pro
:
–
ADwin-Pro I
: The classic
ADwin-Pro
system for approved Pro I modules
and the processors T9 and T10.
–
ADwin-Pro II
: The new
ADwin-Pro
system for existing Pro I modules,
new Pro II modules and the processor T11.
When the
ADwin-Pro
system was developed great attention was paid to the
electromagnetic compatibility. The
ADwin-Pro
system and all available input
and output modules have the CE sign and can therefore be configured differ-
ently later if necessary.
Applicable modules
Each
ADwin-Pro
system needs a processor module. It communicates via Eth-
ernet or USB with the PC or notebook; previous versions used a serial link con-
nection.
In order to meet the various requirements for measurement and control tasks
the system can be equipped with the following modules:
– analog input modules and analog output modules
– digital input modules and digital output modules
– counters
– filters, isolation amplifiers
– amplifiers for thermocouples and PT100 resistors
– serial communication interfaces (CAN, RSxxx, Fieldbus)
– storage / read module for PCMCIA storage media
Revision Identifier
Since middle of 2002 all modules have a revision identifier written on the mod-
ule front, e.g. Rev. A2, Rev. B3, Rev. C3. Earlier delivered modules have no
identifier; they are to be considered as revision "Rev. A".
Different revision characters mean different module properties and are
described separately.
The revision identifier is followed by a minor counting number, which is mainly
used for internal purposes of Jaeger Computergesteuerte Messtechnik GmbH.
All modules for
ADwin-Pro II
have the revision identifier Rev. E1 or higher. This
is true for both advancements out of Pro I modules and for newly developped
modules.
