Priced at $350, the ADAM-4019+ 8-channel universal analog input module is able to configure each channel individually. Thanks to its independent channel configuration capability, the device can process up to eight types of signals with a single module. In previous modules, each type of signal required a separate module. This 16-bit 8-differential channel module can be programmed in ASCII or Modbus and offers a 10 Hz sampling rate. Additional features include a 3,000 Vdc isolation, a watchdog timer, sensor burnout detection function, and a 4 to 20 mA input range. The ADAM-4019+ also accommodates 䔮 V, mV, and thermocouple input ranges.
