Voltage Input Module For Remote I/O
The Voltage Input Module for Remote I/O features 2-, 3-, and 4-wire spring terminal connection methods, a built-in power supply for sensors, four selectable input ranges, and simultaneous sampling. A remote I/O system consists of an EtherCAT bus coupler and individual modules mounted on a DIN rail. You control the Voltage Input Module for Remote I/O from a real-time controller, such as a CompactRIO Controller or an Industrial Controller. You can use remote I/O hardware to add low-cost I/O for simple tasks while your controller handles advanced tasks such as image processing, motion control, and high-speed or specialty measurements.

Tyre Pressure and Infra-Red Sensors
The system consists of a powered pressure and temperature sensor with transmitter fitted to a wheel rim. This sends pressure and temperature data over an RF link to a compact receiver on the car. Sampling rates increase automatically when either a change in pressure is detected or when wheel inertia is detected. The system stops transmitting below a threshold pressure to preserve battery life. The receiver sends data to the car control via CAN.

Special Use Sensors
Structures can, and do, break, and this may be important and sometimes dramatic. It’s critical to determine whether a particular object made from a particular material can carry a particular load. If a true stress is ignored, the cost of not acting is usually far higher than the cost of dealing with the problem earlier. A good example is in ductile materials. The crack moves slowly and is accompanied by a large amount of plastic deformation around the crack tip. The crack will usually not extend unless an increased stress is applied. Geometrical irregularities, such as cracks, sharp corners and holes – which many times are ignored – may raise the local stress.
