IDEC SmartRelay Manual
It's your choice
The various IDEC SmartRelay Base versions and expansion
modules and communication modules offer you a highly flex-
ible and adaptive system to suit your specific tasks.
The IDEC SmartRelay system offers you many solutions
such as for simple automation tasks and even complex en-
gineering tasks involving its integration into a bus system
(e.g. communications module AS-interface.)
Note
IDEC SmartRelay Base may only be equipped with expansion mod-
ules of the same voltage class. Mechanical encoding pins in the
housing prevent you from connecting devices of a different voltage
class.
Exception: The left-hand interface of an analog module or commu-
nication module is galvanically isolated. This type of expansion
module can therefore be connected to devices of a different voltage
class. See also Chapter 2.1.
Each IDEC SmartRelay Base provides the following connections
for the creation of the circuit program, regardless of the number of
connected modules:
•
Inputs I1 to I24
•
Analog inputs AI1 to AI8
•
Outputs Q1 to Q16
•
Analog outputs AQ1 and AQ2
•
Memory Markers M1 to M24, M8: Startup Markers
•
Analog Memory Markers AM1 to AM6
•
Shift register bits S1 to S8
•
4 Cursor keys
•
16 Blank outputs X1 to X16.
