Omega Control Unit AS-i 2.1

The OMEGA AS-i Control Unit combines the limit switches, visual indicator, and integral solenoid valves controller per the latest AS-i 2.1 specifications. The OMEGA AS-i Control Unit includes the following features:
- AS-i 2.1 Specification Compliance meets the current AS-i protocol standards with extended addressing mode, permitting the installation of up to 62 devices on a segment.
- 4 IN - 3 OUT Board provides four inputs for limit switch feedback and two outputs for control of the integral single or dual-coil Omega solenoid valves. An additional third output is available for the control of an auxiliary device or for 3-Position Dribble Control applications.
- Integrated Communication Watchdog Tag monitors the digital signal and ensures that the outputs are turned off when digital signal is lost, ensuring that the actuators fails on loss of AS-i communication.
- Environmentally-Sealed AS-i PCB prevents premature failure due to moisture or contamination.
- Short-Circuit Protection for all Input and Outputs. This eliminates the costs associated with separate short-circuit protection.
