Advantech ADAM 5000 TCP

We got one of ADAM 5000 TCP from Advantech some days ago. It looks like this:

ADAM 5000 TCP Base and Module

We aimed to enable communication with it through Modbus protocol over Ethernet. Thanks to many libraries inside of our system for industrial registering, we got it working in some hours. Currently, we already have a library ADAM 5000 TCP that handles everything around reading and writing to the hardware.

During all those tests, we agreed that we were very happy with the results of this hardware, and the price is not as high as other hardware of the same category and quality. In addition, we have to say that its internal CPU allows uploading programs to handle its behaviour, and the language for programming is C.

No animals were injured during those tests. 🙂

Labelmate PM-300-CS: interfacing an industrial labeler with ESP32 and galvanic isolation

The Challenge I recently took on the challenge of modernising a Labelmate PM-300-CS dispensing machine (Internal Mother Board). Ideally, I wanted to control this industrial hardware from my computer, so I decided to interface an ESP32 microcontroller. However, there was a major hurdle: the machine operates on 15V logic with noisy motors, while the delicate ESP32 operates […]

Photogrammetry

I have experimented very much with photogrammetry and got exciting results. This article talks about this experience. These experiments were done together with Andalú Sea and my friend Juan Soler. During underwater operations, we always record videos of the whole process just in case of problems and for documentation purposes. We checked a sewage outfall […]
