2 Analog Inputs (RAMIX Versions) - Thermocouples J, K, T, N, E, R, S and B, Pt100, Pt1000, NTC, 0-60 mV, 0-5 Vdc, 0-10 Vdc, 0-20 mA, 4-20 mA 2 Analog Outputs (RAMIX Versions) - 0-20 mA, 4-20 mA, 0-10 V 4 or 8 Digital Inputs (model dependent) Digital/Relay Outputs (model dependent) Ethernet, RS485 and USB Communication The DigiRail Connect is a versatile DIN rail I/O module with Ethernet, RS485 and USB interface which can be easily integrated to any automation system. With a flexible mix of industry-standard inputs and outputs, it performs  analog and digital signal handling with outstanding accuracy.  Bringing the Industry 4.0 to the DIN rail level, the connectivity of DigiRail Connect allows it to be used as a Modbus RTU slave in RS485 networks or as a Modbus TCP server over Ethernet. Specially designed to comply with international electromagnetic compatibility standards, it ensures robustness and reliability in the most demanding industrial applications.  Universal Analog InputsThe RAMIX-DO and RAMIX-RL have two universal  analog inputs which are software programmable for input type.  The two inputs are electrically insulated from the serial interface and the module power supply.  Features include: Analog inputs: programmable for thermocouples J, K, T, N, E, R, S , B,   Pt100, Pt1000, NTC, 0-60 mV, 0-5 Vdc, 0-10 Vdc, 0-20 mA, 4-20 mA Cold junction compensation for thermocouples and compensation for Pt100, PT1000 3-wire cables Open loop detection for thermocouple 10 Sample/sec sample rate  Analog input resolution: 16 bits Programmable filter Analog OutputsThe RAMIX-DO and RAMIX-RL also have two analog outputs. Features include: Configurable ranges of 0-20 mA, 4-20 mA, 0-10 V Settable power on state level Safe Value Watchdog - Allows you to set a value for the analog output in case of loss of communication. 12 bit resolution Digital InputsAll DigiRail Connect modules have digital inputs.  The DMIX models have 8 digital inputs and the RAMIX models have 4 digital inputs. Features include Programmable Measurement Function Logic Status Rising or Falling Edge  Counter (up to 250Hz for PNP or NPN, 10HZ for dry contact closure) Integrator (counts time in seconds when triggered by logic status) Programmable Signal Type Dry Contact with programmable debounce time NPN PNP Preset - allows an initial value to be set for the Rising Edge, Falling Edge, and Integrator ON/OFF counters.  Digtial and Relay OutputsThe RAMIX-DO has 3 digital outputs and the DMIX-DO has 8 digtial outputs.  The RAMIX-RL has 2 relays and the DMIX-RL has 4 relays. Digital Output/Relay Features include: Programmable Actuation Mode Logical Status Pulse - The output will turn on for a specific time interval (set in the Pulse Duration parameter) and then return to the OFF status Pulse Train - The  output will create a defined number of pulses (set in the Number of Pulses parameter), with a defined duration (set in the Pulse Duration parameter) and in a defined period (set in the Repetition Period parameter). Power On State Safe Status Watchdog - Allows the output state to be set in case of communication failure Ethernet, RS485 and USB CommunicationAll of the DigiRail Connect have Ethernet and RS485 communications.  The Ethernet connection uses Ethernet TCP protocol and the RS485 uses Modbus RTU protocol.  You can configure DigiRail Connect to operate in Gateway mode between a Modbus-TCP network and a Modbus RTU network.  The DigiRail Connect also has a USB port which is ideally intended for configuring and diagnosing the monitored process. Software NXperience - Configuration, Data Collection and Diagnostic Software (Free Download) NXperience is a free configuration, data collection and diagnostic software for NOVUS wireless transmitters and data loggers. This program allows you to explore all the features and details of the DigiRail Connect, and communicates through USB interface, TCP-IP and RS485 Interface. The NXperience allows configuration of the device and download of the data.  It  provides diagnostic tools which facilitates setup, operation, maintenance and trouble shooting of the device. . FieldChart Supervisory and Data Acquisition Software (Lite version available as a free download) FieldChart is a software used for monitor and register data acquired from NOVUS products. It generates real time trends and data lists that can be exported in usable formats like a spread sheet. There are two versions available: FieldChart-Lite and FieldChart-64C. The FieldChart-Lite can register 8 simultaneous channels and it is available for free. The FieldChart-64C can register up to 64 simultaneous channels.
