...and of course, if the new stuf could have a switchable RS-485/422/232
port to talk to legacy stufff, it would be great!

...Hmm, what if the board DID accept accept Arduino shields...?

Yes, I'm good-looking forward to spring, which is almost here.....

It would be really cool if the modules could be stacked like an Arduino
shield-you could add as many or as few as you needed.

The VFD interface should include a few additional relays and inputs; you
never know what somebody will need.

Also, what about a display module? That way the LCD display could also be
remote mounted. I remember how I had to work to figure out where to put my
ModIO in order to get the display where it needed to go on the controller
box.

And f course-Mach4 as well as Mach3 plugins!

Hi Andy,

All is good down under. :) I trust you are well.

Yes, I can accommodate an isolated 0-10V control voltage. I was thinking of
a
VFD interface module. This would the voltage output include, relays to
control
the FWD/REV RUN/STOP terminals, etc. IT should be able to be used with VFDs
and with Motor controllers such as the KBIC controllers.

The small I/O blocks is a good idea. I'll look at a small module where
different I/O boards can be plugged into them, a bit like an Arduino
shield.

Cheers,

Peter

Hi Peter:

How've you been lately?

A couple of ideas I thought of:

-could you include circuitry to make it easy to send an isolated 0-10V

signal

to a VFD or other controller?

-It might be really handy to have some small IO blocks, like 4 relays and

a

couple of inputs, each with its own Ethernet port and address. These could

be

located in different spots on a machine

Hi All,

It's been quite a while since this group has been active, a year or so if

I'm

correct.

Anyhow, I'm in the process of starting back onto the ModIP development.

The

ModIP is an Ethernet based Modbus device. Ethernet opens up a huge
possibilities for ModIP.

The microprocessor used will be an order of magnitude more powerful than

that

used in the ModIP so I should be able to squeeze a lot into it.

The purpose for this message is to ask those of you that have used the

ModIO

for various tasks,

1. What features would you like to see in the ModIP
2. What formfactor would suit you best
3. What applications are you using the ModIO for
4. What applications would you use a ModIP for

This input will help me decide the range of features that I need to

accomodate

in the design.

Cheers,

Peter
