Using the Rhio Manager Windows application program, user can configure the Rhio10, perform a system I/O test or monitor the system, and communicate with Rhio10s using predefined protocol.
This document shows how to configure and manage the Rhio10 with Rhio Manager.
2. Hardware connection of Rhio10
2.1 Power connection
Connects power supply to Rhio10 directly.(9V~48VDC, MAX. 5W, Regardless of +/- polarity)
2.2 Connect input port
The input ports of the Rhio10 are configured as follows, so user can connect them regardless of polarity. User can connect devices like sensors which have the output voltage within +/- 24V.
2.3 Connect output port
The output ports of the Rhio10 are configured to relay, so OUTA and OUTB is used for drive switch. Max 220V is allowed.
3. Rhio Manager
User can set network configuration like IP, and the I/O configuration using Rhio Manager.
- To run Rhio Manager, Click Start -> Program -> Sena -> Rhio_Manager -> Rhio_Manager
- Then click Device -> Probe menu, you can find the Rhio10s connected to the network.
- After setting configuration such as network, Save the changes and apply to the system by clicking Device -> Set menu.
- When click I/O PORT CONTROL button, the window that shows the current state of each I/O appears.
- The monitoring interval can be set by clicking ‘Setting Monitor Interval’
Rhio Manager sends commands requesting the state of each I/O with ‘Monitor Interval Time’ periodically.
- User can control ON/OFF manually by clicking LED images of output port.
- User can launch each I/O setting windows by right mouse clicking each I/O LED image.
<In case users click the right mouse button on an input port>
<In case users click the right mouse button on the output port>
<In case users click the right mouse button on the ADC port>
For more detailed configuration of each port, please refer to the Rhio10 manual.
4. Command protocol
User can control outputs and monitor the state of input ports by using following commands. The same protocol is used for Rhio Manager.

Hi,
Please send me your pdf brochure and pricing for the Rhio 10.
Is it possible to get a sample unit for testing?
Thank You,
Does this unit has memory so that input status is saved even if PC connected to it is off.
Does this unit has RTC so that time tag is attatched to the input signals.
Regards
Hi, David Twomey.
Our sales will contact you.
Thanks.
Hi, Anant Tikone
Rhio10 does not have memory that can be used to store I/O state.
And this unit does not have RTC.
Thanks.
Now make this wireless, 802.11 or Bluetooth.
Rhio10 coverts the I/O signal to wired Ethernet data.
But using some combinations of our product, you can make wirelss I/O signal systems.
1. Rhio232 + SD1000 + MSP1000
Rhio232 converts I/O signal to RS232 serial data.
SD1000 converts RS232 serial data to Bluetooth.
MSP1000 converts Bluetooth data to Ethernet.
So you can use following system.
I/O signal -> wired serial -> Bluetooth -> wired ethernet
Reverse direction data communication is also possible.
2. Rhio232 + PS110W
PS110W is our WiFi device server. It converts RS232 serial data to WiFi.
So you can use following system.
I/O signal -> wired serial -> WiFi
Reverse direction data communication is also possible.
Thanks.
