Page 7: Introduction
1 Introduction The Brainboxes Ethernet to Analogue products are a range of Ethernet devices controlled by a host computer which provide analogue inputs and outputs for high-precision measuring and control of voltages and currents. The ED-549 has 8 analogue inputs which are independently configurable as differential voltage inputs or current inputs, and the ED-560 has 4 analogue outputs which are independently configurable as voltage or current outputs. -
