Introduction Return to top of page

Simple configuration, easy programming and supported by major DA & C packages - these are just a few reasons to use Advantech's ADAM 4000 modules.

The ADAM-4018M provides the same functions as the 4018 modules but can also store up to 10,000 signal samples in it's 32 KB Flash memory. It has user definable sample intervals from 1 second to 18 hours. When using the Event Logging Mode data is recorded when an input exceeds a predetermined high or low alarm condition. Stored data can be read by the host computer at any time via an RS-485 network. The Flash ROM also provides a backup for read data for retrieval in the event of a power failure or removal from the system when interrogated.

You can use any high-level language with ASCII-based string functions (such as C, Pascal or BASIC) to communicate with ADAM modules or process their data. For example, the command and response for an analog input module would be: COMMAND: #5, RESPONSE: > 4.834. This command requests the data stored by the module with address 05 (Hex). The module responds with the value 4.834 V.

ADAM's built in checksum feature ensures data integrity by detecting communication errors. This feature adds two checksum characters to every command or response string that enable you to verify that the message received is exactly the same as the message sent.

Easy-to-use menu-driven utility software make configuration and calibration a snap. Its terminal emulation program lets you easily read from and write to ADAM modules. Writing application programs with this software (GENIE 2.0) is simple, you can learn the basics in just a few minutes.
