BVME210 - Digital I/O module |
|
 |
The BVME206/210 are a pair of parallel interface cards offering similar facilities but with different I/O pinouts. The BVME206 is configured as a quad parallel printer interface whereas the BVME210 is better suited to monitoring and control applications which require bit manipulation. The modules use two MC68230 Programmable Interface/Timers (PI/T) chips which each include an independent 24 bit counter/timer. Each timer can be clocked from an internal clock or via the I/O interface and each is able to generate a vectored VMEbus interrupt. Extensive OS-9 software support is available for these modules and real world connection is simplified by the use of the DIN rail mounting Plant Interface Modules (PIM). The PIMs provide various opto-isolation and relay options.
