1 Product description
The 8-fold Digital Input Module can be used to query the status of 8 switches, reed contacts or all kinds of digital
sensors. The LED indicators on the front panel show the status of the switch inputs. When the input voltage is
present, the respective LED indicator lights up.
To protect the inputs additionally against disturbances, the module has filters with a delay of only 30ms.
Each input can be set manually by pushbutton for test purposes, maintenance or development.
The inputs are isolated from the 1-Wire Network by Optocouplers. This allows very long connection cables
between the module and the sensors without interfering with the 1-Wire Bus.
In addition, the isolation between switch inputs and 1-Wire Network provides increased safety.
For the operation of the Module only a 2V supply voltage is necessary. For this, we recommend the use of one
of our 1-Wire Hub module.

4 Auto-E-Connect Support
The 8-fold Switching Module supports Auto-E-Connect Level I and II.
1 Auto-E-Connect System
With the launch of the ECO controllers, the ESERA Auto-E-Connect® 1-Wire Plug and Play system for the
1-Wire Bus is now introduced and supported.
This means that fully automatic configuration of the 1-Wire Devices* (sensors and actuators) on the
1-Wire Bus is now possible.
It is optimised for commercial and industrial applications and enables significant added value beyond sensor
and chip data.
The Auto-E-Connect function is built up in three levels. Currently there are Level I, Level II and Level III
available.
With Auto-E-Connect Level III, fully automatic configurations of the 1-Wire Devices on the
1-Wire Bus are possible. It is optimised for industrial and IoT applications and enables significant added
value beyond sensor and chip data.
With the Auto-E-Connect function, ESERA Devices are recognised fully automatically, suitable libraries are
started and ready-formatted data is output.
The Auto-E-Connect functionality will be available for the ECO Controller and ESERA-Station 200 Pro from
2021.
Auto-E-Connect Level I
OWD Detect: detection of new sensors* and actuators* and automatic start of adapted libraries.
Auto-E-Connect Level II
Visualisation product data: reading out and visualising of the Auto-E-Connect and manufacturer data of
sensors* and actuators*, e.g. article number, date of manufacture, firmware and hardware version.
Auto-E-Connect Level III
Extended Plug and Play System for 1-Wire Bus
oPre Configuration: The OWD number for the next installation can be written to the 1-Wire Device*.
oAutomatic Positioning: The Device* logs on to each ECO Controller with Auto-E-Connect III with the new
desired OWD number. This automatic login works up to the maximum possible OWD number of the
ECO Controller.
oSensorfinder Function: The ECO Controller can activate a status LED within the ESERA 1-Wire Pro
sensors*. The status LED flashes or lights up continuously for a certain time. This makes it much easier to
detect a device in a 1-Wire Network. Faster detection saves a lot of time and therefore money when
searching for a 1-Wire Device.
oClasses Assignment: ESERA 1-Wire Devices are assigned to OWD classes with the same properties. This
assignment enables fully automatic visualisation and data evaluation in control systems. A class list is
available from ESERA.
For further information on the ESERA Auto-E-Connect system, please refer to the ESERA Website and the
ESERA Config Tool 3.
Auto-E-Connect is registered by ESERA GmbH as a German and European Patent.

Note on switching loads
When switching capacitive or inductive loads, very strong arcs can occur at the relay contacts, which can
cause interference with the logic of the switching module, the ECO Controller and other devices. In order to
extinguish these arcs or to dampen the resulting disturbances to such an extent, appropriate additional
circuits, such as spark quenching capacitors, and/or varistors per switching contact and free-wheeling
diodes per relay, must be provided.
For details on spark quenching, see Wikipedia: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Funkenl%C3%B6schung
The max. switching current and max. switching capacity are reduced for capacitive or inductive loads.

11 1-Wire Network, Cabling
The special feature of the 1-Wire system is the "BUS technology". All devices (sensors and actuators) are
operated in parallel on a three-wire line, which is used for both power supply and data communication. The
1-Wire Bus system joins the list of other successful bus systems such as CAN or Modbus RTU. All of the
installation principles recommended for these are also applicable and appropriate to 1-Wire.
The maximum size of a 1-Wire network is determined by various factors. These are mainly:
- Total cable length and cable type
- Number of 1-Wire devices
- Type of cable installation (topology)
- Number and design of cable connectors (unnecessary connection transitions should be avoided)
All factors in total are summarised and designated as 1-Wire Bus load. Each increase in a factor increases the
total 1-Wire Bus load for the 1-Wire Controller and thus reduces the maximum network size.
According to our many years of experience and a lot of feedback from customers, the following conservative
recommendation can be made:
- Maximum cable length 50 -120m
- Number of 1-Wire devices no more than 20 -22 pieces
- As linear a topology as possible without T-junctions
The topology in particular plays a major role. If possible, it should be installed in a linear topology. The linear
topology can be compared like pearls on a pearl necklace. The data line should be laid from one device to the
next without T-joints.
Furthermore, the type of cable used can also be mentioned here. We recommend for the cabling
CAT5 or CAT6 network cable. It is also possible to use J-Y(St)Y telephone cables and KNX cables. Longer cable
runs are possible with CAT5 versus CAT7 cables.
With twisted pair cables, a longer connection length can be achieved in an undisturbed environment, as the
capacitive bus load is lower. A total length of 50 m and more can be easily achieved without additional measures.
In disturbed, commercial and industrial environments, the cable should always be shielded in order to increase
the "robustness" or interference sensitivity of the system.
12 Operating conditions
The module may only be operated at the voltages and under the ambient conditions specified for it. The operating
position of the device is arbitrary. The device is intended for use in dry and dust-free rooms.
If condensation forms, an acclimatization time of at least 2 hours must be allowed.
Assemblies and components do not belong in the hands of children!
The modules may only be put into operation under the supervision of a qualified electrician.
In commercial facilities, the accident prevention regulations of the German Federation of Institutions for Statutory
Accident Insurance and Prevention for electrical systems and equipment must be observed.
Do not operate the module in an environment where flammable gases, vapors or dusts are present or may be
