PA-1500 – DAQ card Digital inputs/outputs

The PA 1500 32 digital input/output ISA card has 16 digital inputs, 24 V, and 16 digital outputs, 24 V. 14 inputs are interruptible. It is used as an interface to machines, for the monitoring of processes controlled by a PC, for industrial measurement, for the acquisition of sensors, for signal analysis, as an interface to machines in harsh industrial environments and has to do this many safety devices. A CD-ROM containing drivers for Windows and programming examples is included.
