The D7100 7-channel voltage input module is part of the DGH’s D7000 data acquisition module family supporting RJ-45 Ethernet interface and communication via MODBUS TCP/IP protocol. This input module measures signal across six different voltage ranges (±25mV, ±50mV, ±100mV, ±1V, ±5V and ±10V) and continuously converts the data at the rate of up to 25 conversions per second, storing the latest result in the buffer. The data (unsigned integer percentage of full-scale values) can then be retrieved by sending a Modbus query to the module from the host processor. The D7100 voltage input module can be directly connected to a wide range of sensors and annunciators, and provides all signal conditioning and linearisation, while containing no pots or DIP switches. The D7100 series of modules also features peer-to-peer (P2P) mode, allowing sending signal from analog input to analog output module, or digital input to digital output module without the need to involve a host computer. They are also able to upload information to cloud using ThingSpeak platform, and send e-mail notifications via Gmail free e-mail service (a limit value can be set for each channel separately, triggering the notification e-mail). For extra security, it utilises a non-volatile EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory) to store all user-selectable settings such as the range, meaning the values are maintained in the event of power loss. The D7100 module is compatible with any commercial software supporting Modbus TCP/IP ethernet protocol and is DIN-rail mountable (MK-1 mounting kit required). Combined with other D7000 modules, it provides the complete, customised data acquisition system for given application.
