Advantech's ADAM-6100 Series

Advantech's ADAM-6100 series is a new line of industrial Ethernet remote Input/Output (I/O) modules, seven of which are designed with the Ethernet/IP protocol and seven based on Profinet. Four of the Ethernet/IP-based modules have just been released, the 6150EI, a 15-channel isolated digital I/O Ethernet/IP module, the 6151EI, a 16-channel isolated digital input Ethernet/IP module, the 6156EI, a 16-channel isolated digital output Ethernet/IP module, and the ADAM-6160EI, a six-channel relay output Ethernet/I

548 Advantech's ADAM-6100 series is a new line of industrial Ethernet remote Input/Output (I/O) modules, seven of which are designed with the Ethernet/IP protocol and seven based on Profinet. Four of the Ethernet/IP-based modules have just been released, the 6150EI, a 15-channel isolated digital I/O Ethernet/IP module, the 6151EI, a 16-channel isolated digital input Ethernet/IP module, the 6156EI, a 16-channel isolated digital output Ethernet/IP module, and the ADAM-6160EI, a six-channel relay output Ethernet/IP module.

Designed with 2,500 VDC isolation protections, these modules are resistant to field interference and allow daisy chain connections, making it possible to transfer data much faster. The ADAM-6100 series can also be mounted in different ways depending on different field situations, such as DIN-rail mounting, wall mounting, and piggybacked. More importantly, Advantech's ADAM.Net Utility comes bundled with each module, allowing users to configure, set and test the modules through the Ethernet.

  • Adopting universal technology platforms for tolling
    July 16, 2012
    Dave Marples of Technolution argues that the continuing development of tolling-specific onboard equipment is leading us up a blind alley. We should, he says, be looking to realise universal platforms with universal application. The near-future automobile contains information systems of a sophistication to rival a jet airliner of only a few years ago, yet is 'piloted' by a considerably less well-trained individual of highly variable mental and physical capacity, and operated in a hostile, unpredictable and p

  • Changing roles in data collection for traffic management
    January 23, 2012
    Transport for Greater Manchester's David Hytch discusses the evolving roles of the public and private sector in managing and disseminating data. Data services for traffic management were once the sole preserve of public sector organisations, they being uniquely placed and equipped for the work involved. Now, though, this is changing. There is even a presumption in some countries that the private sector will take a greater, if not actually a lead, role in the provision of information for transport management

  • Additional functionality gives loops a continued lease of life
    March 20, 2014
    Two decades after the death of the inductive loops was predicted, Matt Zinn, technical services manager at Eberle Design says the technology still offers advantages. More than 20 years ago the emergence of video detection systems led many to foretell the end of inductive loops. In the intervening years advocates of radar, infrared and wireless detection technologies have also claimed that loops were on their way out. But in fact, by all calculations, the use of loops has actually increased and although
