Dear RTCU User,
Welcome to the Logic IO Newsletter!
After the success of the
RTCU CX1
flex we now have the pleasure to launch the
new
RTCU DX4 flex. Both
flex devices
offer unprecedented flexibility in that
hardware options can be ordered and applied when
required. This lowers the initial cost of the
device and gives after-sales potential with new
features and functions applied
on-demand!
To support the new
RTCU DX4 flex we also present
the availability of the RTCU IDE 6.20
and
X32 firmware 2.81.
Please read much more below...
RTCU DX4 flex
The RTCU DX4 flex is designed for a broad
range of advanced
wireless
monitoring,
control and remote access applications,
which require a product based on the most
versatile and powerful platform available today.
The RTCU DX4 flex offers a perfect balance
between low-cost and advanced features and with
the unique ‘on-demand options’, hardware
features can be enabled as required – even after
the product has been installed in the field!
The RTCU DX4 flex is a
low-cost
product based on the
RTCU DX4 pro with a unique
approach to the market. The
standard hardware features of
the RTCU DX4 flex are very
powerful, but various hardware
options can be activated
on-demand from within the RTCU
IDE or by the unit itself after
installation.
The following options are
available:
- Digital
I/O option: Full Digital
I/O with 8 digital inputs
and 8 digital outputs.
