Introduction
Project Introduction

Moxa's ioLogik E2210 was selected to help track the number of visitors in each store's interactive system. Active Ethernet I/O on the E2210 allowed data collection and message without a separate PC, and the Click&Go logic made configuration very easy. In addition, the easy-to-use libraries that were included made it possible to quickly develop Active Ethernet I/O software. These features made it easy to integrate the E2210 with the control center of the interactive system, which is a computer running a custom Visual Basic application.

 Advantages of using ioLogik E2000 servers: 

  • Easy to use MXIO DLL library for Visual Basic
  • Remote import and export of configuration settings
  • Reduced network overhead using Active Ethernet I/O messaging with time-stamp
  • Multiple trigger conditions for I/O messaging in Click&Go™ logic
  • Built-in counter input channel with no counting loss
  • Built-in RTC(Real Time Clock) with SNTP time synchronization
