If you're looking for a convenient way to get a 5V DC power source from your VINT Hub, this little adapter will do the trick. It connects directly to a VINT port using a Phidget Cable, giving you access to the Hub's 5V supply on the terminal blocks. By opening the Hub port in DigitalOutput mode, you can toggle the 5V provided by this adapter on and off.
This device can be controlled by a VINT Hub. For more information about VINT, have a look at the VINT Primer. You can use a Phidget Cable to simply and easily connect the two devices. Here's a list of all of the different VINT Hubs currently available:
