USB-8GPIO-FLEX

This device has the flexibility to take any combination of inputs and outputs through the 8 flex terminal connectors. Micro switches set the status of the GPIO terminal block.

 

A custom syntax for setting the GPIO outputs and converting the INPUTS to useable string.

 

All communications are via serial over USB. 

  • SPECIFICATION

    Serial over USB:
    38,400 baud, N,8,1

    Syntax:

    INPUTS state changes will send a string via the USB connector to the BrightSign device in the following format:
    IN0001
    First 2 letters: denote IN or OU
    First 2 numbers: denote the GPIO terminal (00 through 07)
    Second 2 numbers: denote the status ON or OFF (00 = OFF, 01 = ON)

    OUTPUTS can be switched on and off by the BrightSign device by sending the control strings TO the board via USB. The string must be formatted the following way:
    OU0301
    First 2 letters: denote IN or OU
    First 2 numbers: denote the GPIO terminal (00 through 07)
    Second 2 numbers: denote the status ON or OFF (00 = OFF, 01 = ON)

    These are sent as ASCII and must contain \r\n (<CR>) to close the string. The same will be sent from the board to the BrightSign.
