IN8 is a card with USB interface which allows managing 8 optocoupled inputs. Easy to use, thanks to its installation driver and software libraries which also reduce installation costs, IN8 is the right answer to the need to acquire digital signals from a PC in an industrial environment.
Besides, the implementation of hardware controls allows managing anomalous status, switching off all the outputs.
The use of USB interface allows IN8 high speed, hardware independence, and flexibility in the expansion of connected cards.
IN8 comes with demo software and driver interface for Windows, compatible with all recent operating systems (including Windows Vista and Windows 7 either 32-bit and 64-bit ones).
