Output Connections
The GPIO port’s outputs are opto-isolated. Current
should be limited 100 mA through each output, with the
total current draw from the +5 Volt supply not to exceed
3 amps. Figure 5-5 shows the recommended connections
for outputs:
NOTE : Some external devices will allow a logic
control input “sink to ground” to activate. Thus,
some devices may not work with an Axia GPO
control, because they may not fully achieve
ground through the output transistor. The volt-
age drop between the collector and emitter may
not be low enough to activate the device, so an
external relay controlled by the GPO may need
to be used to provide a “dry” contact closure to
the external device.
Please note that this section is provided as a “jump-
start” introduction to Axia GPIO nodes. For a fuller
understanding of the GPIO node’s options and require-
ments, you may wish to read the GPIO Node User’s
Manual.
Virtual GPIO
Virtual GPIO ports allow you to to avoid having to
wire a GPO pin to a GPI pin in order to achieve a particu-
lar function. The Virtual GPIO ports provide an ability to
define up to five GPO pins that can be “virtually wired”
to a single GPI pin. Typically this is used in cases where
you want a GPO function to trigger a different GPI func-
tion. Please refer to the GPIO tables to determine what
those functions are.
