General-Purpose Inputs
The vision system features three built-in general-purpose inputs, which are optically isolated. The inputs can be
configured as either NPN (current sinking) or PNP (current sourcing) lines.

Description
Voltage
ON: 15 to 28V DC (24DC nominal)
OFF: 0 to 5VDC (11.5VDC nominal threshold)
Current (Typical)
ON: 2.6mA to 4.9mA from 15 to 28V input
OFF: < 830µA for < 5VDC input
Resistance: ~6 kOhms
Delay (Electrical)
100ns (maximum)
l
For NPN lines, connect COMMON IN to +24VDC and connect IN 1 to the output of the photoelectric sensor or
PLC. When the output turns ON, it pulls IN 1 down to 0VDC, turning the opto-coupler ON.
l
For PNP lines, connect IN 1 to the output of the detector and connect COMMON IN to 0VDC. When the output
turns ON, it pulls IN 1 up to +24VDC, turning the opto-coupler ON.
