IO-Digital8 Sensor
IO-Digital8 sensor with 8 ALARM/NORMAL status. Have 8 dry contacts on one Intelligent Sensor port. The main housing can be mounted on a wall and a standard CAT5 cable can be run to the intelligent sensor port on the securityProbe 5E or sensorProbe+.
There are two versions of the IO-digital8 depending on your requirements.
The first version has a single RJ45 connector at one end and 8 x 2 pin dry contact connectors along one side.
The second unit also has a single RJ45 connector at one end but the 8 x 2 pin dry contact connectors are replaced by two RJ45 connectors, each compatible with 4 dry contacts.
The dry contacts can be configured as inputs or outputs and the IO-digital8 is user definable so can be used to detect many different inputs such as UPS status, security systems, alarm panels or air conditioning status.
- SNMP interface for alarm/normal status
- SNMP traps sent when critical
- SNMP polling via get command
- When an alarm condition is activated the description and location of the fault can be sent via email, SMS, MMS, phone calls and other advanced notifications
- Each of the 8 dry contacts on the IO-digital8 sensor can also be configured as outputs either 0 VDC or 5 VDC and can sink up to 20 mA of current when connected to a load
