  ioLogik E2242—ideal for water tank monitoring with 4 analog inputs and 12 configurable DIOs


The ioLogik E2242 is a new addition to the Active Ethernet I/O line that offers 4 analog inputs and 12 configurable DIOs. The ioLogik E2242 combines both analog and digital I/O channels in a 1:3 ratio, making it perfectly adapted for applications such as water tank monitoring and environmental monitoring. Using the ioLogik E2242, one analog input can trigger 3 separate digital outputs for local High-High, High, and Low alarms, without requiring a separate PC or RTU.

In a typical water tank monitoring application, the ioLogik E2242's analog input can be used to monitor water tank levels, and its digital output can be used to trigger an alarm when the level reaches a certain level. As the alarm is activated, the ioLogik can also update the central computer with I/O status information by TCP, UDP, SNMP trap, or email.

Internal Register for Remote and Local Control of I/O Status

The ioLogik E2242 also offers a new control object in its Click&Go local control logic interface. The Internal Register allows outside SCADA control of output channels when Click&Go logic has been activated, and can also redirect the result of one logic value to be the source of another logic value.

The ioLogik E2242 supports Active Ethernet I/O, which was developed specifically to address the limitations of the traditional passive approach. Rather than requiring the host computer to poll the I/O module over the network for the current status, the ioLogik E2242 uses its Active Ethernet I/O intelligence to send status information to the host computer, but only when specific conditions are met. This "report by exception" approach greatly reduces the load on the CPU and network resources.
