The BarnMini series

The BarnMinis are ideal for standalone solutions and solve everything from a simple task to more comprehensive solutions. BarnMinis can be used in conjunction with other Barnfind products to empower complete distributed systems in larger facilities.

BarnMini - 05

BarnMini-05 offers a compact way to convert an RS422/RS485 serial data, 4x GPI, 4x GPO to Ethernet.

The unit serves as an intelligent bridge for third-party devices. GPI and GPO are often used to transfer tally between two locations.

BarnMini-05 can control optical changeover switches such as BarnMini-06 in a redundancy setup.

All BarnMini modules can be used as a standalone box or in a more sophisticated system with BarnOne or BarnColor.
