1. OVERVIEW OF CONTROLLER
The Dual Channel Universal Signal Controller with CANopen ® (2IN-2OUT-SIG-CO) is designed
for extremely versatile control of up to two signal level outputs. The controller is widely configurable
through CANopen ® Objects. Its flexible circuit design gives the user a large range of configurable
input and output types. The sophisticated control algorithms allow the user to program the
controller for an extensive range of applications without the need for customer software.

The controller has two fully programmable universal inputs that can be setup to read: voltage,
current, resistive, frequency or digital input signals. There are also two universal outputs that can
be setup to output: voltage (0-5V, 0-10V, +/-5V or +/-10V), current (0-20mA, 4-20mA), PWM (fixed
frequency), Frequency (fixed duty cycle), variable PWM and Freq, and Digital On/Off. All I/O ports
on the unit are fully independent from another.
