Boards cram in more digital inputs
High-density digital input boards read 48bit at sustained rates in excess of 1Ksample/s.
United Electronic Industries (UEI) has released the Guardian Series DNx-DIO-448 of high-density digital input boards The DNA-DIO-448 and DNR-DIO-448 are compatible with UEI's popular Cube and Racktangle I/O chassis, respectively

Instrumentation modules fit cPCI or PXI slots
UEI's PowerDAQ extensions for instrumentation modules work in CompactPCI or PXI slots; C-size chassis and CPU card implement the full PXI spec.
LabView makes it onto Linux
PowerDAQ LabView for Linux makes it unnecessary to turn to open-source drivers, giving engineers the security of a tested software layer driviving some of the industry's most advanced hardware.
Each board reads all 48bit at sustained rates in excess of 1Ksample/s.
Input switching levels, (and hysteresis) are software selectable from 0 to 28V DC with 25mV resolution.
As part of UEI's Guardian Series, the board uses an innovative A/D input approach that offers incredible input flexibility.
A diagnostic input mode measures the analogue voltage at each input, allowing quick and accurate detection of short and open circuits as well identifying marginal or failing drive circuitry.
The analogue input capability is also a powerful installation, diagnostic and data acquisition tool.
Software for the DNA-DIO-448 is provided in the UEIDAQ Framework.
The Framework provides a comprehensive, easy to use API that supports all popular programming and operating systems including Windows, Vista, Linux and most real-time operating systems (including QNX, RTX and RT Linux).
The board is fully supported by LabView, Matlab/Simulink, DasyLab or any application supporting ActiveX, OPC or Modbus TCP control.
"The DNA-DIO-448 board will allow large digital I/O systems to fit in an amazingly small package", says UEI President Shaun Miller.
"However, it's the input flexibility and diagnostic capabilities of the board that make it a truly unique product".
