4.3.3.1 Remote Control D-Sub
(Con 1)
This serial interface is a 9-pin D-sub connector (DB9). This socket can alternately be used for the
Remote Control RJ-12
connector on the front panel.
Use this port for connecting your Windows PC. Refer to the
Connection to the computer
for details.
Refer to the chapter Technical Drawings/ Descriptions,
Pin Out Table
, for the pin assignment.
4.3.3.2 Control-Out/In
(Con 2)
This control interface is designed as a 15-pin D-sub connector (DB15) and includes trigger outputs
and inputs (GPOs and GPIs) for external control tasks. Refer to the following chapter for more details
and to the chapter
Technical Drawings/ Descriptions
,
Pin Out Table
, for the pin assignment.
4.3.3.3 Technical data Control-Out/In (GPO/GPI)
GPO : The outputs
are of the OPEN COLLECTOR type.
If the output is active, it will establish a low impedance connection to 0V. In the non-active state it has
a high resistance.
Connect only loads whose current is limited to a maximum of 50mA and whose voltage is within the
range of 0V...30V.
For simple control application VIP
digital
can provide the 5V and 12V auxiliary voltages which can be
used for such purposes with restrictions.
IMPORTANT: A maximum of 100mA may be taken from the auxiliary voltages. Do not use these
auxiliary voltages to control loads which might cause electrical interferences return to the unit. The
same applies for the cables connected to these ports.
DO NOT TRANSMIT THE AUXILIARY VOLTAGES OVER LONG CABLE WAYS. IMPROPER
HANDLING OF THE AUXILIARY VOLTAGES OR A SHORT CIRCUIT MAY RESULT IN
FUNCTIONAL FAULTS OR DAMAGE TO YOUR VIP
digital
.
GPI: The inputs
are C-MOS compatible.
If the input is to be activated, a connection must be established to 0V, or a voltage less than +1V must
be applied.
If the input remains open or a v3.5V...+12V is applied, the input will not be active.
IMPORTANT: Only voltages within the range of 0V...+12V (absolute m15V) may be applied.
NON-COMPLIANCE WITH THE ADMISSIBLE INPUT VOLTAGE MAY RESULT IN FUNCTIONAL
FAULTS AND DAMAGE TO YOUR VIP
digital
.
Note: Refer to the
GPI/GPO Circuit Examples
in the chapter TECHNICAL DRAWINGS/
DESCRIPTIONS for connection examples.
