PoStep60-256 microstep stepper motor driver can also operate on 24 V control signals. PoStep60-256 microstep stepper motor driver (complete explanation) is normally operating on 5V inputs for step, direction and enable signals. Most industrial PLC controllers provide only 24V signals. However, adding a simple 1,2 kOhm resistor in series with control input will make the … Read more

Recently, one of our customers, Tomaž P., sent us a description of his project “Orchidarium automation”. He uses our USB I/O controller PoKeys57U as an automation control device. We are glad to hear our devices are not installed only in CNC control and flight simulator world but also used in such “green” projects as a … Read more
Versatility of PoKeys device makes it well suited as a component of an environment monitoring system. PoKeys device functions as a data acquisition point, as many different sensors can be easily connected to it. Acquired data can we store directly with PoKeys software logger or send to local, for example Raspberry Pi, data logger or … Read more
Late in December Xively IoT platform has announced retirement of its free service Xively Personal, support for which was already integrated into our Ethernet PoKeys devices. One of possible alternatives is ThingSpeak IoT platform. Free version offers up to 3 channels, each can contain 8 data fields. Number of messages is limited to 3 million … Read more
8 channel relay module board PoRelay8 allows expanding the number of outputs of the PoKeys device by using the PoExtBus. It features 8 relay outputs. Up to 10 boards can be daisy-chained over the CAN bus for up to 80 additional outputs. CAN (Controller Area Network) bus is a robust bus standard initially designed for … Read more
