This automation solution is cost-effective and is also designed for mobile applications because there is no USB power and there is no additional power supply.

It is enough to hook the devices to the computer via a normal USB interface.

The flexible, DIN-rail-mounted housing makes automation equipment very well prepared, as it allows easy integration of the boxes.

For fixed applications, it is also advantageous if the input dispensers are equipped with high-quality, plug-in, compatible industrial connections.

For the DIY domain, affordable I / O units can also be added in distribution boxes, which facilitates the realization of a simple and direct design, to measure temperatures.

The unit is the right system for beginners and professionals because they offer complete software tools and libraries for many programming languages that make their use very simple.

In the field of education, LucidControl can be used by learners to make their first experiments in automated programming.

Without the need for additional driver software, the modules run out of the box with the most important computers and work with MS Windows as well as Linux operating systems.

In addition to the current PC, they also work with built-in computers like Raspberry Pi, which make the IO devices very useful.

This provides all the functionality provided by the input and output modules, accessible via the Internet, and to create web applications on embedded computers running Linux operating systems.

A short description of the USB Digital Input Equipment

USB Digital Acquisition Unit, as well as USB Digital Output Module, supports the 2 classes of the LucidControl series of products and controls IO of logical signals.

By acquiring 4 digital lines, the Universal Serial Bus digital input device has been designed to be ready for many digital acquisition tasks.
The equipment works with 5V, 10V and 24V thresholds, which is a standard in the automation industry.

In order to interfere with other automation commands, the 24V threshold values are treated as default signals, and this method must be selected.
They are able to communicate with other components of the operating system or, for example, read the status of a switch.

There are several objectives that can be achieved when digital inputs are required, and the digital input devices are very flexible also because of their signal conditioning characteristics.

An excellent useful feature is the built-in input filter that ensures correct processing of input logic lines.

Automatic signal recognition of the raised edges is just one example, which can also be very useful and enable rapid recognition of the signal in real time without having to interact with the connected computer.

All logical inputs are optical and potentially isolated, which means that the linked hots computer is completely separated from the input lines to protect the computer to the maximum.

Our goal is to provide USB components with many interfaces to prepare them for almost any project.

The LucidControl product family consists of powerful Plug-and-Play USB IO devices turning a computer to a modular digital and analog data acquisition and control system.LucidControl captures and generates analog and digital signals like voltages, temperatures, resistances and logic. The host computer can make use of this data e.g. for logging, monitoring or control tasks.
