Tibbo Project System

One platform. Two sizes. 70+ Tibbits.

Pick the box, with or without a screen, plug in the I/O you need, and program it in AppBlocks. The same Tibbits fit every model.

A TPS3, a TPS2 and a TPS2L with an LCD, side by side, with Tibbit modules in front: an RS232/422/485 port with its DB9 connector, two relays with nine terminal blocks, isolated inputs, and a 5 V power supply with its power input jack

TPS2

Compact, with status LEDs and a label window.

TPS2L

The same size, with a colour LCD and a sensor keypad.

TPS3

Twice the sockets, for bigger I/O counts.

Look inside.

A top cover with the screen and keypad, a vibration plate, the board with your Tibbits, side walls and a base. Scroll to take one apart.

A Tibbo Project System with an LCD coming apart: the top cover with its LCD and sensor keypad, the vibration protection plate, the mainboard, its Tibbits rising out of their sockets one by one, the side walls and the bottom cover. Then the board from above, its Tibbits back in their sockets: RS232 / 422 / 485 serial port (Tibbit #02 with a #19 DB9), Two high-power relays (Tibbit #06 with a #20 terminal block), Three isolated inputs (Tibbit #04-2 with a #21 terminal block), 5 V power supply, 9–18 V in (Tibbit #10 with a #18 power input). Finally the box closes again.

Tibbits: the I/O, one module at a time.

Each Tibbit is a module, with a connector where it needs one, that plugs into a socket. Choose the ones the job needs.
