possible to create applications of Windows/Linux. In addition,
a diagnostic program by which the operations of hardware can
be checked is provided.
- This product has a digital filter to prevent wrong recognition
of input signals from carrying noise or a chattering.
This product has a digital filter to prevent wrong recognition of
input signals from carrying noise or a chattering. All input
terminals can be added a digital filter, and the setting can be
performed by software.
- The output circuit, has a built-in Zener diode and the
overcurrent protection circuit of the surge voltage
protection.
Zener diodes are connected to the output circuits to protect
against surge voltages. In addition, the output circuit, it
attaches the overcurrent protection circuit at the output 8-
channel unit. The output rating is max. 35VDC, 100mA per
channel.

Connecting a Device to a Connector
To connect an external device to this board, plug the cable
from the device into the interface connector (CNA, CNB)
shown below.
Connector Pin Assignment
Pin Assignments of Interface Connector
O-00 - O-
F7
128 output signal pins. Connect input signals from the external device to these
pins.
P-0/1 - P-
E/F
Connect the positive side of the external power supply. These
pins are common
to 16 output signal pins.
N-0/1 - N-
E/F
Connect the negative side of the external power supply. These pins are
common to 16 output signal pins.
A current of 0.3 A is allowable per connector pin. Connect the required number
of pins for the total current for the corresponding 16 output signals.
N.C.
This pin is left unconnected.
Connect the output signals to a current-driven controlled
device such as a relay or LED.
The connection requires an external power supply to feed
currents.
The board controls turning on/off the current-driven controlled
device using a digital value.
Output Circuit
The output circuit of this board is illustrated in the image
above. The signal output section is an Optocoupler isolated,
open-collector output (current sink type). Driving the output
section requires an external power supply.
The rated output current per channel is 100 mA at maximum.
The output section can also be connected to a TTL level input
as it uses a low-saturated transistor for output. The residual
voltage (low-level voltage) between the collector and emitter
with the output on is 0.5 V or less at an output current within
50 mA or at most 1.0 V at an output current within 100 mA.
To protect against surge voltage, a Zener diode is connected
to the output transistor. Also, an overcurrent protection circuit
is attached to a unit of eight output channels.
When the PC is turned on, all output are reset to OFF.
