Pamux

Pamux is a high-speed, high-density distributed I/O system that accommodates both digital and analog brain boards and I/O modules. A Pamux bus can extend up to 500 feet (150 meters) from a host computer or other programming device.

Pamux supports up to 32 distributable stations containing up to 512 I/O points. Each station is composed of a Pamux brain board and an I/O mounting rack; the final station on the Pamux bus must also include a terminator board. Digital (B4 and B5) and analog (B6) stations may be mixed on a single bus. All Pamux stations within a system are daisy-chained via a 50-pin flat-ribbon cable.

Applications

The Pamux product line is ideal for applications such as:

• Robotics
• Numerical control
• Conveyor line control
• Sequence-of-events fault detection.

Because it is a critically timed high-speed parallel I/O system, Pamux is better suited to environments with low electromagnetic or radio frequency interference. Noisy applications are better suited to I/O systems that offer greater noise immunity, such as Opto 22's SNAP Ethernet, mistic, and Optomux systems, or direct connection to I/O.
