Iono Pi RTC an extremely versatile Input/Output module, based on Raspberry Pi, with an RTC (Real Time Clock) clock, a series of communication interfaces able of communicating with industrial automation systems.

It consists of the Iono Pi board with RTC, the Raspberry Pi and the compatible "DIN-bar" container. It features several digital input and output lines, four outputs driven by power relays, and the standard interfaces typical of modern PLC systems such as 1-Wire and Wiegand buses. The features of the board are completed by a 2.5 A and 5 V power supply capable of accepting voltages between 9 and 28 volts in direct current at the input.

The field of application ranges from data acquisition to the control of automation systems, access control, hotel management solutions, environmental control and many others, both in the professional and residential fields, monitoring of technical alarms. Software development reflects the usual software development methods for Raspberry Pi, with the facilitation of an ever-increasing number of frame work and specific applications.

The objective of this product is to place itself as "middleware" in advanced automation applications, ie able to acquire data from automation systems, even existing ones, and to present them with an evolved and remotable Man-Machine interface. The ultimate goal of architectures of this type is the ability to control and interact remotely with automation systems.

The product includes: Iono Pi with RTC, Raspberry Pi 3B + and the "bar-DIN" compatible container.
