The Configuration of LucidIoT Network Analog Input Channels
With the LucidIoT Ethernet network i/o controller the developer can realize mixed analog and digital data acquisition and control systems. Here we describe how to measure up to 16 analog 0-10V voltage or 4-20mA current signals using LucidIoT and how to transmit them via MQTT, Modbus TCP/IP or the JSON interface via TCP sockets. The device can also log measured signals to internal file structure which is accessible by FTP.
The drawing shows the LucidIoT analog input module with 4 voltage sources (e.g. 0-10V) connected to the terminals X1.1 and X1.2 (Channel 0), X2.1 and X2.2 (Channel 4), X3.1 and X3.2 (Channel 8), and X4.1 and X4.2 (Channel 12).
The LucidIoT module has two slots and allows installation of two different functions. IO slot 0 (on the left) provides the channels 0-3 (X1) and 4-7 (X2). IO slot 1 (on the right) provides the channels 8-11 (X3) and 12-15 (X4).
The drawing shows that the positive pole of the signal is connected to uneven terminal numbers (e.g. X1.1 and X4.1). The negative pole of the signal is connected to even terminal numbers (e.g. X1.2 and X4.2).
LucidIoT allows the installation of different functions at the two IO slots. The LIOT16-AI8-10V-AI8-10V for example can measure 16 analog 0-10V signals. The LIOT16-AI8-20MA-AI8-10V measures 8 0-20mA (4-20mA) signals and 0-10V signals. It is also possible to mix analog and digital I/O functions of the network analog input module.
The LucidIoT network analog input module can also measure 4-20mA (to be correct 0-20mA) signals. This configuration of the analog input module is shown beside. A 4-20mA current source is connected to channel 0 of LucidIoT. The sourced current flows through the supplied 500 Ohm high precision resistor creating a voltage of 0-10V.
