1.1 The HSL System
The HSL is an innovative distributed I/O technology that enables
time-deterministic scanning of thousands of I/O points in millisec-
onds using master-slave architecture. The HSL master board
comes in PCI or PMC form factors. The PMC board is used in
embedded controllers. By using commercial Ethernet cable with
RJ-45 connector, you can easily set up the HSL slave modules as
close as possible to the sensor devices, reducing wiring effort.
Aside from the I/O modules, ADLINK provides the remote motion
control module with 4-axis pulse train type. The HSL network suits
a variety of machine-making applications as it integrates discrete I/
O, analog I/O, thermocouple module, and motion control. This
local network delivers rapid response time, time-deterministic
scanning and multiple-axis control. With PMC module, you may
also integrate the HSL network with embedded solution platforms.
