Functional description
Keithley’s MSSR-32 is a 32-channel digital I/O interface for the METRABUS industrial data acquisition and control family.
Up to 32 industry standard miniature solid state I/O modules can be mounted on a single board. The MSSR-32 rack uses 4 con-
secutive addresses in the 64-bit METRABUS address space. This allows up to 16 MSSR-32 boards (512 I/O points) to be con-
nected to a single METRABUS driver card.
The MSSR-32 is divided into four 8-bit ports. Modules can be installed in any combination of inputs and outputs (though pro-
gramming is simplified if only one type of module is used in any one MSSR-32 8-bit port).
The MSSR-32 uses 5 volt power only, and one or two MSSR-32s can be operated directly from the host computer’s power sup-
ply. For larger systems, a MBUS-PWR power supply should be installed.
