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

The USB-Relay-8 is a compact USB 2.0 module in a plastic housing with 8 relay outputs for low switching capacities up to max. 1 A. A number of status LEDs visualize the switching states of the relays. The connection wiring is done via two 8 pole pluggable screw terminals.

  • 8 *Relay outputs NO (36V DC / 1A / 10 W)
  • Galvanic isolation between contact and coil: 1.5 kV RMS /1 min
  • Timeout protection function
  • LED status display per output channel

Relay outputs

Reed relays with normally open (NO) function are used in this product. They are suitable for smaller switching capacities and achieve well over 100 million switching cycles. The electrical isolation between input and output circuit is up to 1.5kV.

 

Timeout-protection-function

If communication with the DEDITEC module is interrupted in a timeout case, the timeout protection function takes effect. It can be set for each digital output whether it is to be “switched off”, “switched on” or left unchanged. Motors can thus be switched off in a timeout case, for example, and connected horns or other alarm transmitters can be switched on.

 

New timeout modes

3 different timeout modes: “normal”, “auto reactive” and “secure outputs” for different procedures in case of a timeout event.
In “secure outputs” timeout mode, access to the outputs is blocked after a timeout event, thus preventing further access to the outputs.
Unlocking must be done by an additional software command.

 

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.

Configuration

Configuration of USB modules

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

 

Several identical USB modules on one system

Each of our USB products has the module number “0” in the delivery state. When using more than one USB module on a PC / system, a new module number must first be assigned to each additional module. This assignment is done with our DELIB configuration utility. Only in this way can a clear assignment be made by the software. The module number is stored permanently in the product. Up to 255 identical modules can be used on one system.

More details about the control and some programming examples can be found in the programming section.

Programming of modules via the DELIB driver library on Windows

The comprehensive yet very easy to use DELIB driver library is suitable for almost any programming language. An installation package with extensive examples can be found on our CD or in the download section.

Control via the Windows driver library DELIB

The DELIB driver library enables a uniform response of all DEDITEC control engineering products. For this purpose, we provide programmers with appropriate functions for the respective product groups, which enable a uniform but also very simple addressing of the products.

 

Here you will find an overview of the DELIB and its programs:

DELIB + Tools

 

A list of all DELIB commands can be found here:

Overview DELIB API

DELIB driver library ETH

We also offer a pure Ethernet version of the DELIB driver library. Not included are all other drivers like USB/SER.
This has the advantage that no installation of the driver library or configuration of the module is necessary.
This gives project customers the advantage that the Ethernet driver library can be integrated into their own setup, eliminating the need to run the DELIB setup.

All products with Ethernet interface are supported by this driver library and can be addressed via the IP address.

 

Here you can find the download:

DELIB ETH

The DELIB enables simple addressing of DEDITEC modules

 

The following example shows how simple means can be used to access the inputs of our modules within a very short time.

 

Open the module

handle = DapiOpenModule(RO_ETH,0); // Open Ethernet-Module

 

Read 16 digital inputs

data = DapiDIGet16(handle, 0); // Read the first 16 digital inputs

 

Close Module

DapiCloseModule(handle); // Close the module

 

The function “DapiOpenModule” is used to open a product. Which product is to be opened is determined by the two transferred parameters. The first parameter designates the “Module ID”. Due to the included “DELIB.H” the parameter can be simply specified with “RO_USB1”. This tells the driver library that a RO module with USB bus is to be addressed.

 

The second parameter determines the module number. If only one module is connected to the PC, a “0” is specified. If several modules are connected, the corresponding module number must be specified. The module number can be changed with the DELIB Configuration Utility.

 

Example of the addressing of a DEDITEC module

ICT-Tool

The scope of delivery includes the DT module Demo. This program offers the possibility to address all inputs/outputs in a simple way and thus also to test them.

In this example, an RO-USB is connected. The connected RO-USB has digital outputs, these can be switched on and off.

 

Programming of USB modules

Example for opening several modules on one PC:

 

Opening the module with the nr. “1”

handle1 = DapiOpenModule(RO_USB1,1); // Open USB-Modul with Nr=1

Opening the module with the nr. “4”

handle2 = DapiOpenModule(RO_USB1,4); // Open USB-Modul with Nr=4

Structure of a FIFO data record (example with 2 active AD channels, AD0 and AD4)

Byte || Meaning || Value [hex]

0 RO_FIFO_ID_START 0xf0

1 FIFO type
2 Time stamp (Bit0..Bit7)
3 Time stamp (Bit8..Bit15)
4 Active A/D channels (Bit0..Bit7) 0x11

5 Active A/D channels (Bit8..Bit15) 0x00

6 A/D value channel 0 (Bit0..Bit7)
7 A/D value channel 0 (Bit8..Bit15)
8 A/D value channel 4 (Bit0..Bit7)
9 A/D value channel 4 (Bit8..Bit15)
10 RO_FIFO_ID_END 0xf1

FIFO data set = 7 bytes ID + (2 x number of active A/D channels) bytes data

 

RO_FIFO_ID_START

Signals the beginning of a new FIFO data record. The RO_FIFO_ID_START always has the value 0xf0 [hex].

 

FIFO type

Specifies the FIFO type (e.g. RO_FIFO_ID_TYPE_AD16M0 for A/D-FIFO)

 

Time stamp

Specifies the 16 bit time stamp of the current record. The time reference here is the time of activation of the FIFO.
If the time stamp overflows, it is reset to 0.

 

Active A/D channels

Specifies a 16 bit value for the currently active A/D channels. Each bit represents one channel (Bit0 -> AD0, Bit1 -> AD1, … Bit15 -> AD15).
If the bit is set, the corresponding A/D channel is active

RO_FIFO_ID_END
Signals the end of a FIFO data record. The RO_FIFO_ID_END always has the value 0xf1 [hex].

 

Comment

This command is only supported by our RO-ETH series modules.
Please note that the software FIFO must be activated or initialized with the command “DapiSpecialCMDAD”.
