I/O Modules

 

The iNetGrow uses smart modules to handle the input/output (I/O) signals (see diagram).  There are several types of general-purpose modules, as listed below.  More modules are being added the list.  In addition, in special cases, specialized modules could be built and interfaced with the controllers.

Notes:

1. All digital inputs are opto-isolated (5-24V AC or DC).

2. All digital outputs are opto-isolated 100 mA relay drivers.

3. Analog input ranges are determined by resistor values, which are set at the factory.

4. The TC module uses K-type thermocouples.

5. Each SHTX channel has a separate temperature and relative humidity sensor.
