RN1400 RabbitNet
Models: RN1400
Description
The RabbitNet RN1400 relay card is the fourth 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 relay card is DIN rail mountable.
RabbitNet
RabbitNet expansion ports enable a modular and expandable embedded control system whose configuration of expansion 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 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 relay expansion 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 relay card.
