Availability: In Stock SKU: USB-OPTOIN-8 Category:

The USB-Optoin-8 is a compact USB 2.0 module with 8 optocoupler inputs for digital detection of voltages in the range of 5V to 30V. A number of status LEDs visualize the switching states of the optocouplers. The plastic housing with top-hat rail mounting facilitates installation in distribution cabinets. The connection wiring is made via two 8-pole plug-in screw terminals.

  • 8 optocoupler inputs (5V-30V AC / DC)
  • Galvanic isolation of the inputs via optocoupler
  • 16 bit counter per channel (up to 100Hz)
  • Filter for counter / flip-flops adjustable from 5ms – 255ms

Digital inputs

With our optocoupler inputs, digital signal states can be recorded within a voltage range of 5V to 30V AC or DC. Input and output circuits are galvanically isolated from each other up to 2.5kV.

 

Counter

Each input has a 16 bit counter that can count up to 65535 pulses. If the maximum counter value is exceeded, the counting process starts again from zero. By means of a software command, the current status of all input counters can be written simultaneously into a separate memory area.

 

Recording of status changes

Status changes that occur between the readout cycles are reliably detected by internal flip-flops and can be read out separately by software. In addition, such an event is signalled by a status LED. Resetting is done automatically after the flip-flops have been read out.

LEDs

Each digital input and output has a separate LED that lights up when the signal state is active. Furthermore, the status of the operating voltage, the communication with the interface, error events or the occurrence of a timeout can be displayed.

Connectors

Pluggable screw terminals are used as connectors. Conductor cross-sections of up to 3.3mm² can be connected. The two flange screw connections provide additional support.

General information on the ICT tool

We have developed the new ICT tool to make commissioning our products as easy and straightforward as possible.
This tool combines all the important functions of our old programs, such as the Configuration Utility, Module Demo and DT-Flasher, in one.
With the ICT tool, you can now easily configure, test, diagnose, flash and debug our products.
In the following chapters, we would like to introduce you to our new all-in-one software in more detail.

Module selection

Here you can integrate your modules into the ICT tool by clicking on the “+” symbol, so that you can then configure or test them.

 ICT-Tool module selection. Display of the ICT-Tool at program start

Start screen

Here you can find some important information about your selected module.
In addition, you can display the manual of the module as PDF or HTML version here.
Under “Show module IDs” you can call up all available module IDs. This ID is needed to integrate our products into your software projects.

 ICT-Tool module info. Display of the ICT tool when the module is open

ICT Treeview

In the treeview on the left side of the program window, you can see the respective forms that are supported by your module.
With a click you can then display this form in the right part of the program and perform possible configurations or tests.

Configuration

USB module configuration

Products with USB interface are automatically recognized by the DELIB driver library. Configuration is only required if several identical USB products are to be used on the same system.

 

Multiple identical USB modules on one system

Each of our USB products is delivered with the module number “0”. When using more than one USB module on a PC / system, a new module no. must first be assigned to each additional module. This assignment is done with the help of our ICT-Tool. Only in this way can a unique assignment take place on the software side. The module number is permanently stored in the product. Up to 255 identical modules can be used on one system.

Description

This instruction stores the counter readings of all input counters simultaneously in a buffer (latch).
Thus, all counter readings of the latch can be read out one after the other.
A special feature is that a simultaneous “freezing” of the counter readings is possible and the frozen readings (latch) can then be read out one after the other.

CNT48 functions

DEDITEC ICON
DapiCnt48ModeSet
This command sets the count mode for a single input channel.

DapiCnt48ModeSet

 

Description

This command sets a counting mode (optionally also sub mode) and input filter for a specific input counter channel.

 

Definition

void DapiCnt48ModeSet(ULONG handle, ULONG ch, ULONG mode);

 

Parameters

handle=This is the handle of an open module
ch=number of the input counter channel whose mode is to be set (0, 1, 2, 3, .. )
mode= Specifies the mode

 

Possible values for mode

mode=DAPI_CNT48_MODE_COUNT_RISING_EDGE | DAPI_CNT48_SUBMODE_NO_RESET
In this mode, counting is performed on the rising edge.

 

mode=DAPI_CNT48_MODE_COUNT_RISING_EDGE | DAPI_CNT48_SUBMODE_RESET_WITH_READ
In this mode, counting is performed on the rising edge. In addition, the counter is reset with every read operation.

 

mode=DAPI_CNT48_MODE_COUNT_RISING_EDGE | DAPI_CNT48_SUBMODE_RESET_ON_CH_7
In this mode, counting is performed on the rising edge. In addition, the counter can be reset via an external signal (last channel of the module = 1).

 

mode=DAPI_CNT48_MODE_COUNT_RISING_EDGE | DAPI_CNT48_SUBMODE_LATCH_COMMON
With the command “DapiSpecialCommand(handle, DAPI_SPECIAL_CMD_CNT48, DAPI_SPECIAL_CNT48_LATCH_GROUP8, 0, 0)” all 8 counter values of the input counters are written into a latch simultaneously. This mode can then be used to read the latched counter reading.

 

mode=DAPI_CNT48_MODE_T
This mode is used to measure the period T. A 100 MHz counter serves as a basis for this.

 

mode=DAPI_CNT48_MODE_FREQUENCY
In this mode the number of rising edges within one second (= frequency) can be measured.

 

mode=DAPI_CNT48_MODE_PWM
This mode is used to measure the “high” and “low” time of a signal. The ratio can then be determined (PWM).

 

Additionally, all input counters can be combined with an input filter (with an or combination). The following input filters are available for this:

 

DAPI_CNT48_FILTER_20ns
DAPI_CNT48_FILTER_100ns
DAPI_CNT48_FILTER_250ns

DapiSpecialCommand - DapiSpecialCNT48LatchGroup8
This command saves the counter values of 8 inputcounters simultaneously into a temporary storage (latch). So, after that, the counter values of the latch can be read successively. Here, the speciality is, that it is possible to "freeze" the counter simultaneously and the frozen counter (latch) can be read one by one.

DapiSpecialCommand – DapiSpecialCNT48LatchGroup8

 

Description

This instruction stores the counter readings of 8 input counters simultaneously in a latch.
Thus, all counter readings of the latch can be read out one after the other.
A special feature is that a simultaneous “freezing” of the counter readings is possible and the frozen readings (latch) can then be read out (slowly) one after the other.
