The A8911-23 Input Module provides a convenient way to add multiple pulse output devices to Modbus systems such as the AcquiSuite data acquisition network. The A8911-23 accepts up to 23 standard pulse sensors and can function as a slave device with any Modbus master. This data can easily be integrated to a network of other critical energy sensors such as Modbus power meters to provide a comprehensive energy monitoring solution.

The A8911-23 can be incorporated with cost effective data acquisition and wireless metering solutions. TheAcquiSuite data acquisition server and Modhopper wireless transceivers, as a properly integrated system, provide high performance and low cost for:

• Demand response applications

• Benchmarking building operations performance

• Verification of energy savings and utility costs

• Cost allocation to departments or tenants

The A8911-23 allows users to bring data from any pulse output device into a new or existing Modbus network

• Electrical, gas and water usage and costs

• BTU’s and flow

• Industry standard pulse inputs

The A8911-23 is ideal for applications with a high density of pulse output devices, giving users’ access to meters that would previously require multiple modules. The flexible module allows integration with any Modbus master device such as the Acquisuite data acquisition server, a PLC, or any Modbus software based system. By combining the A8911-23 with a wireless Modbus module such as the Obvious Modhopper, users gain access to remote groups of meters previously unattainable.

 Essentially, the A8 911-23 allows users to bring data from any pulse output device into a new or existing Modbus network.
