| RN1200 RabbitNet |
| A/D Expansion Card |
The RabbitNet RN1200 A/D card is the second in a series of peripheral
I/O cards designed for use with Rabbit controller products with RabbitNet
expansion ports, such as the BL2500 Coyote
and OP7200 eDisplay. The cards are DIN
rail mountable and have friction-lock connectors for simplified OEM manufacturability.
RabbitNet
The RabbitNet expansion ports enable a modular and expandable embedded
control system whose configuration of I/O cards can be tailored to a large
variety of demanding real-time control, display, and data-acquisition
applications. A typical RabbitNet system consists of a master single-board
computer and one or more peripheral I/O cards. A high-performance Rabbit
3000 ® or Rabbit 2000 ® microprocessor on the master provides
fast data processing, and the BL2500 master also provides the DCIN and
+5 V power for the peripheral cards.
Programming RabbitNet Cards
Programs are developed and debugged using Rabbit's industry-proven Dynamic
C® software, which runs on a Windows PC. The A/D card is a slave;
the master to which RabbitNet boards are connected is programmed using
version 8.01 or later of Rabbit's Dynamic C.
Dynamic C includes comprehensive debugging support and includes break
points, watch expressions and many other extensive features oriented toward
real-time embedded systems programming. An extensive library of drivers
and sample programs is provided, including a royalty-free TCP/IP stack
for network and Internet communications. Full source code is provided
for most library routines. Dynamic C is sold separately.
Connectivity Tools
Rabbit offers a connectivity kit for wiring assemblies that interface with the friction-lock connectors on the A/D card.
