4.9 Digital I/O Connector
See Interfacing Notes on Page 16 before making connections to this interface
A standard 25-way D-type socket used for interfacing with external equipment. This may be already in use
depending on the type of RGA system purchased, otherwise it is used to connect accessories such as a
Remote Vacuum Controller.
The Digital I/O connector can also be used to provide alarm output signals and process trip signals.
This interface offers the following functionality:
16 configurable I/O lines
+3.3V power output fused at 120mA, fuses are self resetting
±
15V power output fused at 120mA, fuses are self resetting
+24V power output fused at 120mA, fuses are self resetting
Note: The total power consumption on each rail (+3.3V,
±
15V & +24V) for both the Analog and Digital I/O
ports must not exceed 120mA.
