Page 4: Introduction
Introduction iono combines the ease of use of the Arduino platform with multiple input and output interfaces; the result is a rugged, safe, reliable and easy to connect module, suited for installation both in industrial and residential environments. iono is available in three versions, all using the same shield board and case, but with different Arduino boards pre-installed. -
Page 5: Features
Features The iono module's key features are: ✓ 12/24Vdc or 12/18Vac power supply ✓ 4 multi-mode inputs: either to be used as digital or as 0÷10V or 0÷20mA analog signals ✓ 2 digital inputs for potential-free contacts ✓ 1 analog output 0÷10V controlled by PWM signal ✓... -
Page 6: Usage And Connections
Usage and connections FIGURE 1 CONNECTION EXAMPLE Power supply iono can be powered by DC or AC voltage: ✓ DC: nominal voltage in the range 12V to 24V (MIN=11, MAX=30Vdc) ✓ AC: nominal voltage in the range 12V~ to 18V~ (10.8¸21.0V~). When DC powered, make sure to respect the correct polarity shown in the schematic diagram (+ -). -
Page 7: Multi-Mode Inputs: Analog Mode
Multi-mode inputs: analog mode iono features 4 multi-mode inputs (1, 2, 3, 4). Depending on terminal blocks wiring, digital (ON-OFF), analog 0÷10V or analog 0÷20mA signals can be applied. When using analog inputs, 0÷10V and 0÷20mA are converted to 0÷5V levels in order to be compatible with the Arduino platform input pins. -
Page 8: Mapping
Mapping The following table shows the mapping of the inputs and outputs of the iono module into the related pins of the Arduino platform. iono inputs and outputs Arduino pins DI1 – AV1 – AI1 DI2 – AV2 – AI2 DI3 –... -
Page 9: Quick Start
Quick start Be sure to always remove the power supply before installing or removing the Arduino board inside iono. iono must be operated with both side covers installed. Follow all applicable electrical safety standards, guidelines, specifications and regulations for installation, wiring and operations of iono modules. Carefully read the iono hardware guide before installation. -
Page 10: Iono Solo
iono solo iono solo doesn’t ship with a pre-installed sketch, for the simple reason that there is no Arduino module installed! Still, before installing your own Arduino board, you should check that it powers-up normally. 1. connect iono to a regulated power source (check the data sheet for the power requirements) 2. -
Page 11: Iono Ethernet Web App User Guide
iono ethernet web app user guide The pre-installed iono ethernet web app can be used from any modern browser, including browsers of all mobile devices, to easily control the output relays, the 0…10V analog output and check the status of all inputs. JavaScript must be enabled on the browser, or this app will not work. -
Page 12: Installing And Removing The Arduino Board
Installing and removing the Arduino board With iono solo you will have to install your own Arduino compatible board. iono accepts the original Arduino Uno and Ethernet Rev 3 boards, or other boards that are fully compatible with the Arduino 1.0 pinout specification. Installing boards that are not fully compatible, both mechanically and electrically, may and probably will damage the iono board, and may create a safety risk. -
Page 13: Programming
Programming Arduino Uno The Arduino Uno board, when mounted into a iono module, must be programmed through the USB port. Arduino Ethernet The Arduino Ethernet board requires the “USB Serial Light Adapter” for programming, as shown below. FIGURE 4 THE USB SERIAL ADAPTER In order to access the programming connector inside the iono module, the cover placed on the same side of the power supply terminal block must be removed, gently sliding it outward, and giving access to the programming connector indicated by the red arrow... - Page 14 Insert the USB Serial Adapter as shown below. FIGURE 6 SERIAL ADAPTER INSERTED IN THE IONO USB ADAPTER CONNECTOR Connect the adapter to a PC and perform the programming as usual. This operation does not require the iono module to be connected to a power supply. Hardware Guide...
