Amanda / Dirk -
Obviously, you'd need to design some sort of interfacing with your
equipment, be it motors, pumps, whatever (the current provided by
the 0/10V outputs being most probably (I mean certainly)
insufficient to drive anything directly) but it requires only basic
skills, cheap components. You might be able to flip a relay
directly, or you'd need some sort of optocoupler design...
Depending on how many of those outputs you need, the LanBox LCX
already has 8 digital outputs built in! (the 37 pin connector on the
back) I have used that to drive solenoids, etc. (as Dirk mentioned,
with some additional circuitry). The LCX can drive a small reed relay
directly, and then that can switch something larger if needed.
Just ideas... maybe that was already mentioned and I missed it, but
thought I'd throw it out there.
