Ecomat Basic Series

• Compact Controller with 32 bit processing power and 2 CAN-bus ports - very compact!  The mini controller replaces conventional relay logic and complex process controllers, plus the electronics are integrated into a compact, plastic housing that provides connections for I/O, communication & programming.  And a status LED indicates the current operating status.
  
  Logical connection using standard AMP connection on the front of the unit eliminates additional terminal strips.  Integraged CAN interface allows for a direct connection to SAE J1939 network.  Wide operating voltage range: 8...32 VDC.  32 bit processor and choice of 20 or 24 configurable I/O.  Up to 12 PWM outputs, 4 resisitvie inputs, 4 analog inputs, 4 digital outputs. 
•  Basic Relay - simplifies wiring and battery connection and eliminates external terminals. The easily expandable relay streamlines wiring and becomes a decentralized "control room" for mobile apps.  Perfect for areas with limited mounting space because it is compact
  
  What a convenient design for relay replacement, wiring consolidation and fusing vehicle controls.  Providing a much neater appearance in tight spaces on smaller vehicles.  Power rail allows quick connection of up to 10 fuses (4 power supply / 6 relays).  Standard AMP connection for ISO relays and logic relays allowing simple interconnection.
  
• Basic Display - full color that can replace multiple gauges on a vehicle dashboard.  High res color replaces conventional analog displays & traditional gauges on a dashboard....color depth up to 256 colors and resolution of 320 x 240 pixels.
  IP67, single M12 connection for power and CAN, bright high resolution 2.8" color display, mount in dashboard or directly on controller using cover plate and standard 52mm mounting nut.  Simplify user interface with 4 programmable softkeys, directional pad and OK button.  Can display both application data and J1939 from the vehicle powertrain.
