“Built-in Web server”
The t(P)ET series features a powerful 32-bit MCU to enable efficient handling of network traffic. It also has a built-in web server that provides an intuitive web management interface to allow users to modify the settings of the module including DHCP/Static IP, gateway/mask.
“Built-in Dual Watchdog”
The module provides dual watchdog: CPU watchdog and host watchdog. The CPU watchdog which automatically resets the CPU if the built-in firmware is operating abnormally, while the host watchdog set the digital output with predefined safe-value when there is no communication between the module and the host (PC or PLC) for a period of time (watchdog timeout). The dual watchdog is an important feature that ensures the module operates continuously, even in harsh environments.
“Low Power Consumption”
The tPET series module offers true IEEE 802.3af-compliant (classification, Class 1) Power over Ethernet (PoE) using a standard category 5 Ethernet cable to receive power from a PoE switch such as the NS-205PSE. If there is no PoE switch on site, the module will also accept power input from a DC adapter. The t(P)ET series is designed for ultra-low power consumption, reducing hidden costs from increasing fuel and electricity prices, especially when you have a huge amount of device servers installed. Reducing the amount of electricity consumed by choosing energy-efficient equipment can have a positive contribution to environment.
“32-bit High Speed Digital Counter”
Polling the counter data by the remote host may get quantity error caused by communication delay. The tPET series module offers 32-bit counters; it counts the data local to solve the delay problem. Most of the products use 16-bit counter and count up to a maximum count of 65535 on the market. The 32-bit counter of the tPET series module can count up to 4294967296 and accept a frequency up to 3,500 Hz, so it can be suitable for more applications such as production counting, switching ON/OFF counting, event counting... etc..
“Frequency Measurement"
The t(P)ET series module also provides the function of the frequency measurement; it gets the DI count in a certain time and calculate the frequency. Rather than polling by the remote host, our module can count out the frequency directly, reduce the communication delay caused by two ends and also increase the accuracy of frequency measurement. In order to applying for more applications, this module provides 3 scan modes and 4 moving average methods for user to select the best way in their applications. This feature can be used for rotation and speed measurements. |
