Applications
- Digital output control: Controls 24 VDC digital signals through source outputs.
- Redundant load control: Supports parallel switching of two outputs for redundant control of a load.
- Digital input control: Can control a digital input.
Key Features
- 16 digital outputs: Provides 16 parameterizable source outputs (PNP, current-sourcing) for 24 VDC signals.
- Output capacity: Rated output current is 0.5 A per channel; total current is limited to 8 A per module.
- Output protection: Includes short-circuit protection and reverse polarity protection for the 24 V supply.
- Diagnostics and status: Provides module diagnostics, diagnostic alarms, supply-voltage monitoring, group error, a green PWR LED, a green channel-status LED, and a green/red DIAG LED.
- BaseUnit and connection: Uses BU type A0 for 1-wire connection; 2-wire, 3-wire, and 4-wire connections require BU type A0 plus a Potential distributor module.
- Timing and isolation: Typical output delays are 80 μs from "0" to "1" and 100 μs from "1" to "0" at rated load. The channels are not isolated from each other but are isolated from the backplane bus with 707 V DC type-test isolation.
