Product Description
VMIVME-5010
The VMIC series of devices feature models that are all similar in their design as functioning circuit boards but are built with separate functions, such as analog to digital converter boards, input & output modules, and central processing units. These devices were all manufactured as products by the industrial automation division of General Electric, though they were pulled from production, and then later were developed by Abaco Systems.
The VMIVME-5010 model of the VMIC series is an Interrupt Expander Board. This unit is outfitted with a series of standard features, such as the set of 8 Global Interrupt Channels, and 8 front panel external Interrupt inputs, with a user-programmable edge selection feature. There is an optional interrupt generator integrated into the VMIVME-5010, and initiated by the operator through program control.
The VMIVME-5010 model is equipped with the capabilities to handle an 8-bit data transfer. The power intake for this unit ranges from a minimum of 5 to a maximum of 48 volts of direct current. The applications of the VMIVME-5010 module range from change of state monitoring, control system inputs, data acquisition systems, and digital input status monitoring. This unit is also built to accommodate dry switch monitoring, general-purpose digital inputs, ground loop elimination, high CMV digital inputs, isolated digital inputs, low maintenance applications, process status sensor monitoring, and supervisory control systems, trainers, and simulators.
