The IPS960-511-PoE is a highly integrated vision controller optimized for machine vision applications. The IPS960-511-PoE is powered by the LGA1151 socket 7th/6th generation Intel® Core™ and Intel® Celeron® processors. It supports four IEEE802.3at PoE LAN ports and four USB 3.0 ports for connecting industrial cameras. Its vision I/O integrates a full range of isolated I/O interfaces and real-time controls essential to machine vision applications, including trigger input, LED lighting controller, camera trigger, as well as an encoder input for conveyor tracking. The IPS960-511-PoE also supports lighting dimming control to identify object characteristics for different inspection. It comes with dual DDR4-2133/2400 SO-DIMM sockets for up to 32GB of system memory. Two swappable 2.5" HDDs are available for extensive storage needs. To ensure stable performance in harsh environments, the IPS960-511-PoE supports a wide operating temperature range of -10°C to +55°C. Read More
 

The electric vehicle (EV) is a relatively new technology that is rapidly expanding its popularity all over the world. While the electric vehicle provides great environmental benefits and promises a sustainable future for the transportation industry, the increasing number of EV charging stations also raises new challenges in centralized management: most charging stations are unmanned, and many are far away from centralized control rooms, making operational control and maintenance a difficult task. With intelligence distributed and IoT gateway solutions installed based on where they are needed, EV charging service providers can implement centralized management with ease and respond to issues immediately, in the meantime achieving remote and real-time maintenance without involving additional labor costs.
