| RN1400 RabbitNet |
| Relay Expansion Card |
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.
