Inputs
The vision controller features eight independent inputs (INPUTS 0 - 7), which can be used to trigger vision controller
events. The inputs are optically isolated and typically connected (directly or indirectly) to a PLC or photoelectric sensor.
The vision controller will respond to an event when the voltage difference between the INPUT and INPUT COMMON
exceeds 10VDC. Refer to
for common wiring configurations.
Note
:
l
There are two input terminal rows. INPUTS 0 - 3 share the COMMON 1 connection and INPUTS 4 - 7 share
the COMMON 2 connection. Therefore the input devices for each terminal row must be the same; either
current sinking or current sourcing.
l
To maintain optical isolation of the I/O lines, the devices connected to these lines must not be connected to
the same power supply as the vision controller. If they are connected to, or share a ground with, the same
power supply, they may still function but will no longer be optically isolated.
