The
Pocket A/D is an advanced 12-bit, switched-capacitor, successive-approximation,
analog to digital converter which connects to the centronic printer port
of PC/AT, PC/386, PC/486, or compatible computers.
It is a high precision
data conversion system and provides eleven 12-bit analog to digital channels.
With parallel port connection it is particularly suited for notebook and
laptop computers.

The 8 channels relay output / photo isolator input board for the parallel port pocket digital I/O module (M17034) provides relay output functions and photo isolator input functions.
The relay output part provides 8
single pole single throw (SPST) relays to drive 8 different output channels.
Each relay channel can be used to control ON/OFF of external devices, to drive
external high power relays, to activate alarms, etc.
The photo isolator input
part provides 8 photo couple digital input channels,
which allow the input
signals to be completely floated and prevent the ground loop. 
8 channel digital input and 8 channel digital output box
Supports 8 relay
output channels and 8 photo coupled input channels
Allows the photo input
signals to be completely floated and prevent ground loops
Built-in screw terminal for easy wiring
LED status indicators
Support
information for sensor application
Photo coupled
isolated input:
Input response time: 100us minimum
Input
voltage: 15V DC max. for each opto input channel
Maximum voltage of logical
output channel is 15V DC
Maximum sink current of logical output channel is
80 mA.
Max contact rating for relay: 120V AC/DC 1
amp
Attraction time for relay: 3 ms, Fall off time for relay: 2 ms
Isolation
resistance for relay: 100M ohm
