[Exhibition Report] Japan IT Week "26th Embedded/Edge Computing Expo Spring"

Bringing the ease of Raspberry Pi to FA and measurement control! A HAT expansion board that supports up to 8 connections creates new possibilities for Raspberry Pi.

【What's Different Here! Contec's Raspberry Pi Solutions】 ● Independently extended HAT specifications, enabling stack connections of up to 8 units FA control and measurement control systems require numerous signal inputs and outputs. Contec has expanded the standard HAT (Hardware Attached on Top) specification, which typically allows only one connection, to support multi-tier connections. With our unique Board ID system, we enable stack connections of up to 8 units, catering to systems that require a large number of signal inputs and outputs. ● No waste of development assets, multi-platform compatibility If you want to partially replace a PC-based system with a Raspberry Pi-based one, or scale up a Raspberry Pi-based system to a PC-based one, Contec allows for migration with minimal program changes. Our integrated driver software absorbs the differences in hardware, ensuring high compatibility at the API level. 【Product Lineup】 ● RAS function expansion ● Digital input/output / Relay output ● Analog input/output ● Counter

Regarding the "quotation" used at the forefront of sales activities: "Do we really need to save everything when we revise it to Ver.1, Ver.2, etc., every time the amount or specifications change?" "Should we also keep the data from other companies that were not selected in competitive quotations?" Have you ever wondered about these questions? The Electronic Bookkeeping Act strictly demands the "authenticity" of data, but saving every process is a significant burden for the field. This time, we will clearly explain the boundaries of the preservation obligation in a case study format, incorporating the latest interpretations from the National Tax Agency's Q&A. *You can read the full text from the note in the "Related Links." [Contents of this article] 1. The boundary of the preservation obligation lies in "sending to external parties." - Items sent externally are "generally required to be preserved." - Items not sent externally have "no preservation obligation." 2. The sender's judgment: "Is it linked to a transaction?" 3. The recipient's judgment: "The perspective of the 'Corporate Tax Act' is important." ■ Note! "Version revisions" and "corrections/deletions" are different things. ■ A smart way to achieve reliable "version management." ■ Summary
