Intended Purpose

The device can be used as a decentralized communication interface module for the following devices:

• S500 bus modules (e. g. DC505-FBP, CI592-CS31, CI501-PNIO, CI541-DP, CI581-CN)
• AC500 CPUs (PM5xx)
• Other AC500 I/O modules

Features:

• 1 sensor supply voltage 24 VDC, 0.5 A, with short-circuit and overload protection
• 24 digital configurable inputs/outputs 24 VDC (C0 to C23) in 1 group (2.0 … 2.7, 3.0 … 3.7 and 4.0 … 4.7), of which each can be used
  • as an input,
  • as a transistor output with short-circuit and overload protection, 0.5 A rated current or
  • as a re-readable output (combined input/output) with the technical data of the digital inputs and outputs.

The configuration is performed by software. The modules are supplied with a process voltage of 24 VDC.

All available inputs/outputs are electrically isolated from all other circuitry of the module. There is no potential separation between the channels within the same group.

For use in extreme ambient conditions (e.g. wider temperature and humidity range), a special XC version of the device is available.
