Ethernet I/O modules
Small control tasks made easy
"If the engine has started and the temperature is above 90°C, switch on the cooling and send an alarm email to the technician."
These and similar "control tasks" can be performed by the Ethernet I/O modules of the WISE-7500 series. They are easily configured via a browser and eliminate the need for a complex PLC or host PC with control software.
The WISE-7500 series from Spectra has a built-in logic engine that offers extensive measurement, control, diagnostic and signaling functions. These include IF-THEN-ELSE decisions that are event or time triggered. Internal registers for "calculated" channels are also available.
The rule engine processes all local signals and also signals from up to 8 other WISE modules in the network (P2P mode). If required, the I/O modules communicate with higher-level process and control systems via Ethernet and Modbus TCP protocol.
Simple connection to IIoT applications is possible, as all I/O data is available via the MQTT protocol and publish/subscribe mechanism. In this way, the WISE-7500 modules turn a few measurement and control lines into a genuine smart sensor/actuator.
The Ethernet I/O modules offer various combinations of digital and analog inputs and outputs and are ready for operation as PoE-PD devices when the Ethernet cable is plugged in. With its compact metal housing, DIN rail mounting and wide temperature range of -25°C to +75°C, the WISE-7500 series is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
