Strato Pi is an expansion board developed by Sfera Labs for the Raspberry Pi computer board.
Strato Pi implements a number of hardware features to expand the Pi and allow its use in professional applications:
- 9-28 Vdc extended-range power supply
- integrated UPS with external NiCd rechargeable battery
- real-time clock with dedicated back-up battery
- opto-isolated RS-232 or RS-485 serial port
- configurable hardware watchdog
- buzzer for audible feedback.
Contents
HSYCO Configuration
Add a STRATO I/O Server in the I/O Servers section of the Settings and set its parameters.
Note that the Strato I/O Server doesn't count in the I/O servers license total, so you don't need an extra I/O Server license to use Strato with HSYCO.
High Availability
- Shutdown when inactive: defaults to false.
Options
ID | Default | Values | Description |
---|---|---|---|
watchdog | false | true | enables the hardware watchdog and automatically generates the heartbeat signal |
false | disables the hardware watchdog | ||
shutdown_minutes | 0 | 0 | no automatic shutdown after power failure |
int > 0 | the driver will command the operating system shutdown and hardware power off after N minutes of back-up battery operations during a power failure. The Strato board will automatically power-up the Pi when power is restored | ||
quiet | false | true | enables audible alarms on power failure |
false | disables audible alarms on power failure |
Datapoints
For inputs 1 to 4, depending on the 'input1' ... 'input4' options, only the corresponding datapoint will be created, i.e. di<n> (if digital), av<n> (if voltage) or ai<n> (if curent).
ID | Value | R/W | Description |
---|---|---|---|
connection | online | R | connection established |
offline | R | HSYCO can't connect to the device | |
do<n> | 0 | R | relay <n> (digital output) is off |
W | switch off relay <n> | ||
1 | R | relay <n> (digital output) is on | |
W | switch on relay <n> | ||
di<n> | 0 | R | digital input <n> is low |
1 | R | digital input <n> is high | |
av<n> | <val> | R | analog input <n> is reading a voltage equal to <val> (in Volts) |
ai<n> | <val> | R | analog input <n> is reading a current equal to <val> (in mA) |
ao1 | <val> | W | set the analog output to <val> Volts |
User Interface
To control a digital output (DO1 ... DO6), add a button or a buttonicon object to your project page and set its address field to the corresponding datapoint:
