Description
The ADU200 is a CSA and UL certified USB Relay I/O Interface Module
that allows control of 4 relay contact outputs, 4 contact or TTL inputs, and
4 event counters via a USB port. The ADU200 can effectively convert a
standard PC to a powerful PLC (programmable logic controller). High
quality PA-Series relays from Aromat offer superior performance. This
low-cost serial relay contact interface is easy to use with VB, C, Python, MATLAB,
LABView etc. via standard HID drivers included with Windows 7, 8,10 or 11.
A mini-driver ( DLL )* is also provided allowing control using standard ASCII commands using familiar readfile, writefile commands.
The ADU200 USB module also features an auxillary RS232 port for connecting Legacy RS232 devices.
(ADR Products) The ADU200 includes a 10' USB cable and is available as a PCB or in an enclosure with several mounting options.
