P921 I/O Module 
|
|
|
Introduction:
The UNIGO computer system already has some I/O capabilities beyond the standard PC
interfaces. This includes various inputs, some 12V outputs and ground contacts.
However, sometimes this are not enough to connect the system with the intended
application. Initially an OEM customer request, the design was changed to a more
general purpose design to suit a variety of commonly used automotive signals.
Additionally, being a standard USB device, this I/O module can also be used in
conjunction with any other PC. The ideal solution to bring automotive signals into
a standard (MiniITX) PC system. With the USB wakeup feature, this can even be used
to wake the system automatically when a designated input changes.

Applications:
|
Additional in- and outputs for computer system. Many utility vehciles
provide a lot of sensor information, such as safety switches that indicate safe driving conditions.
By connecting these to the computer system, safety can be monitored in addition to the enforcement
already in place.
|
|
Signalling box for automated test setup for mechanical and electrical endurance tests. The ouputs control
test behavior, for example with power relay, or with small DC motors. The inputs can monitor various test
results, such as test cycle count, end switches, sensor output, etc.

Demo application for I/O Module.

Development:
To aid in development of applications that use this I/O Module, we have a small signal tool
available. This tool connects to one of the four ports of the I/O Module and provides internal
battery, adjustable voltage, adjustable frequency, two switches and LED indicators for the output
signals. The development kit includes one tool and one UNICON I/O Module.
