ED-516 Description
Ethernet to DIO device: 16 non-isolated digital input channels. Outputs each group of 4 lines has its own common rail. Powerful ARM 80 MHz, 32 Bit CPU.
The device can be controlled over TCP/IP using the Modbus TCP protocol or simple ASCII commands. Additionally Brainboxes supply a suite of APIs and sample code to communicate with the device using Microsoft .NET framework Visual Basic, C#, C++, Java, Javascript, PHP and more. The device and be configured and secured from a web browser. The device can be installed as a COM Port on a Windows PC to give complete backwards compatibility essential for legacy applications.
Offers robust and intelligent ‘control side’ devices that provide the interface to systems on the 24V factory floor environment, commonly referred to as ‘process side’.
The ED product range is designed for harsh environments. The digital output port line are implemented as protected output circuits, providing current overload and short circuit protection, voltage surge, overload and open circuit protection and over temperature protection to allow the widest possible usage and range of devices.

BB Eco. Replaces Boost.IO and Boost.LAN.
An ED-516 turns into view as the BB mark draws.Discover.
The ED-516 appears in BB Eco with its name, address and firmware version.Locate.
One click on Locate and the ED-516 flashes its LEDs, so you can find it in the cabinet.Upgrade, with confidence.
BB Eco checks the firmware is right for the device, then upgrades it stage by stage.One device, or a hundred.
One ED-516, then a cabinet of fifteen devices, then a row of cabinets.Upgrade all, in one workflow.
Every device in the cabinet is upgraded in turn.Apply one template to them all.
A template is previewed on eight devices, then applied.BB Eco spots changes from your template.
A changed setting is shown against the saved baseline.Scan. Script. Automate.
A subnet scan, the command line, and automatic upgrades.BB Eco. Keep the Work Moving. Windows, macOS, Linux and CLI. Free. Local-first. Air-gap ready. No account. brainboxes.com/bb-eco.
