I/O Sentinel® 4 G2 – Web-based GPIO Interface

The I/O Sentinel® 4 G2 is a robust, full-featured Ethernet based data acquisition and remote-control device with four optically isolated status (logic) inputs and four programmable relays. The I/O Sentinel® 4 G2’s four optically isolated status/logic inputs may be configured for wet or dry (contact closure) status/logic monitoring. The four one-amp SPDT relay outputs may be configured for ON, OFF, pulsed or reboot operation.

Description

The I/O Sentinel® 4 G2 can be controlled and monitored locally and/or remotely over any IP network, including private networks, IP-based industrial control networks, and the Internet. Users can operate the product using a web browser or web-enabled mobile device. Email notification may be configured to alert up to eight email or SMS-email addresses. Logging of system status, along with the site ID may be emailed in time spans from once an hour to once a day. SNMP traps and SET/GET to allow multiple units to be monitored and controlled with SNMP management software.

The I/O Sentinel® 4 G2 may be paired with a second I/O Sentinel® 4 G2 to form an IP-based “4 Channel Bi-directional Status/Relay Extension Cord”.
