Pretty bad when you don't even know how to ask the question....but here goes anyway.
I need to find some sort of interface card that will allow/sense a simple count across up to twelve channels.
Situation: We have from three to twelve processors that are grading items in bins. We need to get a count of each item placed in a particular bin (by grade) In other words, if we have 12 bins being used, there would be a switch or button that would be hit each time an item was placed in the bin and this would register at the pc which switch or button was triggered and allow us to count the items per bin. It is actually a simple problem, but my explaination may not make it seem so.
Any help would be GREATLY appriciated.
BTW, this is to replace scribbled tick lists that are maintained at each bin. More lists are lost than are maintained.
