The Monarco HAT

The Monarco HAT is a robust industrial graded HAT, perfectly suited for IOT projects, small home-automation or industrial projects and much more ...
It protects your Raspberry Pi from overvoltage or short-circuiting and simultaneously provides you with enough IO channels and channel configuration versatility.

A CODESYS V3 library was missing, so I wrote one to fill the gap after studying the C & Java Node-JS code examples and documentation provided by Monarco.
Though tested, it will probably still contain bugs =( If you spot a bug, share it so we can fix it.

Implemented as an IO device-driver, so no function block calls to the HAT in your software necessary.
The HAT is exposed as a hardware device with IO channels and parameters.
Just write code, attach variable to a I/O channel in the hardware tree, ready!

• 100% Open source,
• 100% Pure IEC 61131-3 code (ST)

Currently implemented parameters;

• 4 DI channels,
• 4 DO channels,
• 2 AI channels (12bit),
• 2 AOchannels (12bit),
• Hardware Watchdog,
• Control Byte,
• Stable, but work in progress ..

Limitations / Missing in action

All functionality of the HAT is allready implemented into the core of the driver but some functionality still needs to be routed as parameters

Not yet routed to parameters are;

• RS485 configuration,
• DO channels PWM configuration,
• DI channels Counter configuration,
• 1-Wire bus.
