Control is completely transparent to the user. Surge-protected design shields the host system from abrupt high voltages up to 2,500 V dc. Card supports optical isolation up to 2,500 V dc to improve signal quality and protect against damage from ground loops. Card is available for Microsoft Windows 98/2000/ME/XP, and Linux with full driver support. www.advantech-eautomationpro.com/us Advantech Corp.
