pigeon connections - rb700 essence

Pigeon RB700 is a computer designed for use in industrial control and automation systems. Pigeon RB700 is powered by Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 and Linux system. RB700 model is available in three versions: ESSENCE, STANDARD and ADVANCE. The versions differ in the number of available interfaces. The ESSENCE version is the simplest and does not have UPS, HDMI, analog I/O and TPM compared to the STANDARD version. All versions have the following interfaces: two RS-485, two Ethernet, CAN, 1-WIRE, RS-232, 12 digital inputs (8 opto-isolated, 4 dry contact) and 8 digital outputs.
