Installing and Connecting
Read and understood the cautions below to install the product.
- If there is metal around antenna, it affects antenna characteristics.
Do not place metal near the antenna if possible.
- This product can be mounted on DIN rail with a DIN rail installing bracket of the
optional. Refer to the bundled manual of DIN rail installing bracket for details.
Connecting an antenna
The steps below describe how to connect the supplied antenna to the product.
(1) With the antenna in straight condition, set it to the connector.
(2) Decide the bending direction and turn the product to fasten. Hold the root of the
antenna to prevent it from turning around.
(3) Be certain that the antenna is not loosely set, bend it in the desired direction.
Input circuit
*Input terminal is I-xx.
Input circuit of interface is listed above.
Signal input is opto-coupler isolated input (current sink output support), therefore, external
power supply is required to drive input in this board. The power requirement is about
5.1mA per input channel at 24VDC. (about 2.6mA at 12VDC)
Output circuit
*Output terminal is O-xx.
Output circuit of interface is listed above. Signal output is opto-coupler isolated open-col-
lector output (current sink type), therefore, external power supply is required to drive output.
The rated output current per channel is 100mA at maximum.
As low saturated transistor is used for output, connecting to TTL level input is possible.
When the output is ON, the residual voltage (LOW level voltage) between the collector and
emitter is 0.5 V or less at an output current within 50 mA, and 1.0 V or less at an output
current of 100 mA.
To protect against surge voltage, a Zener diode is connected to the output transistor.
Also, an overcurrent protection circuit is attached to four output transistor channels.
