Product Introduction
ADAM-4000 Series
Intelligent System 3 2 IndustrialServer 1 Software and Industry Solutions
Introduction ADAM-4000 series modules are compact, versatile sensor-to-computer interface units designed specifically for reliable operation in harsh environments. Their built-in microprocessors are encased in rugged industrial grade plastic and independently provide intelligent signal conditioning, analog I/O, digital I/O, data display, and RS-485 communication. The ADAM-4000 series can be categorized into three groups: controllers, communication modules, and I/O modules.

I/O Module Features Easy Plug-In System Integration
With the ADAM-4000's Modbus I/O and built-in Modbus/RTU protocol, any controller using the Modbus/RTU standard can be integrated as part of an ADAM-4000 control system. Any Modbus Ethernet data gateway can upgrade these I/O modules up to the Modbus/TCP Ethernet layer. Most HMI software is bundled with a Modbus driver and can access the ADAM-4000 I/O directly. Moreover, Advantech provides Modbus OPC Server and Modbus/TCP OPC Server as data exchange interfaces between the ADAM-4000 Modbus I/O and any Windows applications. Communication Module Features Fiber Converter The ADAM-4541 and ADAM-4542+ have been designed specifically for transmitting data over long distances without noise interference. The ADAM-4541 is a multi-mode converter that carries signals from fiber optics to RS-232/422/485. It offers a transmission distance of up to 2,500 m with total immunity against electromagnetic noise. The ADAM-4542+ is a single-mode converter that carries signals from fiber optics to RS-232/422/485. It offers an incredible transmission distance of up to 15 km, also with total immunity against electromagnetic noise. USB Converter The ADAM-4561 and ADAM-4562 are one-port isolated USB to RS-232/422/485 converters. The ADAM-4561 can convert USB to RS-232/422/485 with a plug-in terminal, and its major features are the capability to use 9-wire RS-232 and to draw power from a USB port. With 9-wire RS-232 capability, this converter meets the requirements of PLCs, modems, and controller equipment. The ADAM-4562 is a USB-to-serial converter that supports Plug & Play and hot-swapping, which simplifies the configuration process while allowing the module to draw power via USB, thus making it no longer necessary to have an external power supply.

Since Modbus is one of the most widely used communication standards in the world, Advantech has applied it as the major communication protocol for eAutomation product development. The new generation of ADAM-4000 modules now also supports Modbus/ RTU as the remote data transmission protocol. Featuring Modbus-support capacity, the new ADAM-4000 series have become universal remote I/O modules that can operate with any Modbus system. HMI servers or controllers can read/write data via standard Modbus commands instead of complex ASCII code. Watchdog Timer A watchdog timer supervisory function will automatically reset the ADAM-4000 series modules if required, which reduces the need for maintenance. It also contributes a high level of reliability to the system. Modular Industrial Design You can easily mount modules on a DIN rail, panel, or piggyback them on top of each other. Signal connections can be formed through plug-in screw-terminal blocks, ensuring simple installation, modification, and maintenance.
