USB I/O devices developed
Decaf board sensor and control connections are described in order as the number of digital inputs, digital outputs and analog inputs e.g. 8-8-4.
All boards are USB2 devices. A powered USB hub is required when multiple boards are used with the one host PC so that host USB power limits are not exceeded.
Decaf IOC-235 (8-8-4)
A complete USB 2 building block with 3.5″ 480×320 colour LCD with touch. Connect arrays of switches, control relays and analog sensors. One board handles up to 20 devices. A 10Net Ethernet port has been added.
All the power is supplied by the USB bus.
Decaf IOC-350 (8-8-8)
A complete USB 2 building block with a high definition 5″ 800×480 colour LCD with touch. Connect arrays of switches, control relays and analog sensors. One board handles up to 24 devices. Ideal for OEMs and System Integrators where detailed user interaction is required. A 10Net Ethernet port is an option with updated firmware.
Power is supplied by the USB bus or an external 5Vdc power supply.
Decaf IOC-370 (8-8-8)
A complete USB 2 building block with a high definition 7″ 800×480 colour LCD with touch. Connect arrays of switches, control relays and analog sensors. One board handles up to 24 devices. Ideal for OEMs and System Integrators where detailed user interaction is required in a larger format screen. A 10Net Ethernet port is an option with updated firmware.
Power is provided by an external 5Vdc power supply.
Decaf IOC-2xe (16-16-8)
This is the board that can handle the most digital and analog connections, and in most cases requires external logic to interface to sensors and controls. Power is supplied by the USB bus.
Decaf IOC-M-2 Control Module (8-10-2)
This module provides you with a fully functional USB device with digital inputs and outputs, some analog input and SPI device support. This enables just about any customized sensor and control set to be added and controlled at the app level. The Control Module is intended to be connected directly on to a user developed circuit board that implements the sensors, controls and relevent connectors as needed. Power is supplied by the USB bus.
Decaf IOC-M-411 Networked Control Module (7-7-4)
Compared to the IOC-M-2, this module provides a USB device with digital inputs and outputs, more analog input and SPI device support. A 10Net Ethernet port is included and the module appears as a server node on your LAN. Ethernet configuration (IPv4 and MAC address, pass word and server page HTML or JavaScript) is stored on the module EEPROM via PiXCL USB commands. The module can run as a host PC app, or as a network node. Power is supplied by the USB bus or via an external 5Vdc supply.
