GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The DA 8DI/8RO module is designed for use with the DA70
controllers, that can support up to 10 I/O modules simultaneously.
This module features 8 Digital Inputs and 8 Relay Outputs that
can be used to monitor contact or sensor inputs and actuate
relays, solenoids, PLC inputs, etc.
The inputs accept standard DC inputs or contact closures, and
are configured for Sink/Source signals via software switches.
Additionally, each input has a switch selectable input filter that
can be used to prevent contact bounce. Each input may also be
software configured as a high-active or low-active input.
The module is available with relay outputs that are capable of
switching up to one amp each. For applications requiring large
loads to be controlled, several DIN rail mount relays are available.
The modules connect and communicate via proprietary
backplane to the DA host device. The DA host device, equipped
with serial ports as well as an Ethernet port(s), allows the system
to share data with PCs, PLCs, and SCADA systems.
Internal power management circuits allow the module to be
replaced while power is applied, which reduces downtime in the
event of a module failure. All configuration information is stored
locally within the module, as well as in the Host, so replacement
modules do not need to be configured.
DIMENSIONS In Inches (mm)
CONFIGURATION
The DA 8DI/8RO modules are configured with Windows
®
compatible Crimson
®
software. The software is an easy to use,
graphical interface which provides a means of configuration and
commissioning of new systems, as well as routine module
re-calibration.
