RS-485 I/O Modules: ADAM-4000

ADAM-4000 modules are the perfect choice for establishing a cost-effective remote I/O system. Customers can benefit from ADAM-4000 modules through its simple wiring --- using only two wires to communicate with their controller or other RS-485 devices. ADAM-4000 modules use the EIA RS-485 communication protocol; the industry's most widely used bi-directional, balanced transmission line suitable for industrial environments.

Ethernet I/O Modules: ADAM-6000

In the past, integrating automation and enterprise systems required changing the entire architecture of the control system. Nowadays, Advantech ADAM-6000 accomplishes this integration easily through the latest internet technology, so that it can remotely monitor the device status more flexibly. Advantech's ADAM-6000 modules are empowered by Peer-to-Peer (P2P) and Graphic Condition Logic (GCL), and can perform as standalone products for measurement, control and automation. With Advantech's P2P and GCL technology, no additional controllers or programming is needed. With the easy-to-use and intuitive graphic utility, system configurations can be done in an extremely short time. The members of ADAM-6000 series include Communication Controllers, Analog Input/Output Modules and Digital Input/Output Modules.

Wireless I/O Modules: ADAM-2000

Integrated with wireless functionality, power management, and I/O technologies, the ADAM-2000 series are revolutionary products for data acquisition. Based on the IEEE 802.15.4 wireless standard, networks can be easily deployed and extended. Moreover, low rates and low duty cycles make it possible for them to act as standalone devices, providing cost-effective distributed I/O solutions. With the popular industrial communication protocol Modbus RTU, ADAM-2000 series products can be adapted into any SCADA or industrial system with Advantech products, such as IPCs, ADAM, EKI, or WebAccess.

WebAccess HMI/SCADA Software

Advantech's Industrial Automation Group has announced the launch of WebAccess, a browser-based software package for Human Machine Interfaces (HMI), and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) devices. Advantech WebAccess provides remote control and management allowing users to easily view, control, and configure automation equipment in manufacturing facilities, industrial process plants, electric power stations, and building automation systems. In addition, users can easily engineer and develop systems because all the features found in conventional HMI and SCADA software packages are available in an ordinary web browser.

BACnet Remote I/O Modules

The BAS-3000BC series are BACNet MS/TP remote I/O modules with RS-485 inter¬faces that can be expanded as remote I/O modules for 3rd party BACNet MS/TP DDC controllers. BAS-3000BC series provides I/O models with predefined BACNet objects and services listed as PICS to ensure seamless communication each other. Advantech's Domain Focused Configuration Tool is a BACnet Utility specially designed for Building Automation, and is a powerful graphical configuration tool.
