[Emc-users] Something of Interest

2014-11-19 Thread Rick Lair
Not sure if this compatible or not, but I was just perusing thru 
Automation Directs web page, and noticed this. Its new for them, and it 
looks interesting, and I would be willing to try it out for grins if it 
would work with Linuxcnc.

Hi Rick.
It looks good as field I/O using the Modbus Protcol (with Classic Ladder
I/O scanning or mb2hal component as well) .
The price is pretty good for the US market and it is industrial grade
hardware fully certified.

I've used a fair amount of Automation Direct hardware, and have always 
found their quality to be good, their pricing to be good, and their 
customer service (including tech support) to be excellent.

Mesa Electronics sells an excellent remote I/O solutions that work 
almost exactly the same way.  They're not as modular, but the price is 
less, it needs only power and a Cat5 cable to communicate to the Mesa 
Electronics board in the main panel (even though it's not Ethernet 
protocol).  The Mesa Electronics solution is well supported in LinuxCNC.

Since its modbus/tcp it should be possible to make it work maybe with 
mb2hal or classic ladder. One first thing to ask is whether there is register 
level data available for the modules.

Most of my LinuxCNC installations include a PLC and I usually 
communicate to them via Modbus RTU (serial) or Modbus TCP.

So far I've used Siemens, AB, and Automation Direct PLCs with LinuxCNC.

I have always used CL to do the Modbus interface.   It works!

CL can do Modbus registers, inputs, outputs, and internal coils.

I already use a lot of mesa components, I just received an over 25 piece 
order from them, and Mesa is definitely cheaper than these are.

I just threw them out there, I was doing a little shopping, and saw 
these scroll across their page.

Out of curiosity though, Peter, could these be connected to the 7I44?


Thanks


Rick
