About the GMINI800
The Red Lion Graphite Expansion Module GMINI800 is a device that provides eight DC single-ended current inputs for use with a Graphite HMI. It is designed to measure and monitor current in a wide range of applications, including industrial process control, building automation, and energy management.
The GMINI800 module has eight channels, each of which can be configured as a current input with a range of 0-20 mA or 4-20 mA. The module has an effective resolution of 16 bits, allowing it to accurately measure small changes in current. It also has programmable scaling, which allows the user to set the input range and units for each channel.
Red Lion's GMINI module has a reading time of 50 msec to 400 msec, depending on the number of enabled inputs. This ensures that the module can accurately measure and monitor current in real time, even when multiple channels are being used. For every extra input enabled, the Scan Time increases by 50msec.
The discontinued GMINI800 module has a proprietary USB that can be used to connect the module to a Host Graphite HMI. It also has a screw terminal block that can be used to connect the current inputs to the module. The module is compact and easy to install, making it suitable for use in a variety of applications.
