What is EasyPort USB?
The EasyPort USB process interface is used for bidirectional
transmission of process signals between an actual control process
which uses low-voltage technology (24 V DC) and a PC. In order to
ensure that the process does not influence the PC, only electrically
isolated interfaces are used for data transmission between EasyPort
USB and the PC.
EasyPort USB can be used in a great variety of applications:
Control an actual control process with a controller which runs on a PC
Control a simulated process model with an actual PLC
Regulate an actual process from a PC
Record and evaluate measured values from an actual process
