Wiring
▪Do not touch live wires.
▪This equipment is designed to operate only in SELV/PELV/Class 2/Limited Power environments.
▪All power supplies in the system must include double insulation. Power supply outputs must be rated as SELV/PELV/Class
2/Limited Power.
▪Do not connect either the ‘Neutral or ‘Line’ signal of the 110/220VAC to device’s 0V pin.
▪All wiring activities should be performed while power is OFF.
▪Use over-current protection, such as a fuse or circuit breaker, to avoid excessive currents into the power supply connection point.
▪Unused points should not be connected (unless otherwise specified). Ignoring this directive may damage the device.
▪Double-check all wiring before turning on the power supply.
Caution
▪To avoid damaging the wire, do not exceed a maximum torque of:
- Controllers offering a terminal block with pitch of 5mm: 0.5 N·m (5 kgf·cm).
- Controllers offering a terminal block with pitch of 3.81mm f 0.2 N·m (2 kgf·cm).
▪Do not use tin, solder, or any substance on stripped wire that might cause the wire strand to break.
▪Install at maximum distance from high-voltage cables and power equipment.
Wiring Procedure
Use crimp terminals for wiring;
- Controllers offering a terminal block with pitch of 5mm: 26-12 AWG wire (0.13 mm2–3.31 mm2).
- Controllers offering a terminal block with pitch of 3.81mm: 26-16 AWG wire (0.13 mm2–1.31 mm2).
1. Strip the wire to a length of 7±0.5mm (0.270–0.300“).
2. Unscrew the terminal to its widest position before inserting a wire.
3. Insert the wire completely into the terminal to ensure a proper connection.
4. Tighten enough to keep the wire from pulling free.
Wiring Guidelines
▪Use separate wiring ducts for each of the following groups:
oGroup 1: Low voltage I/O and supply lines, communication lines.
oGroup 2: High voltage Lines, Low voltage noisy lines like motor driver outputs.
Separate these groups by at least 10cm (4"). If this is not possible, cross the ducts at a 90˚angle.
▪For proper system operation, all 0V points in the system should be connected to the system 0V supply rail.
▪Product-specific documentation must be fully read and understood before performing any wiring.
Allow for voltage drop and noise interference with input lines used over an extended distance.
Use wire that is properly sized for the load.

Earthing the product
To maximize system performance, avoid electromagnetic interference as follows:
▪Use a metal cabinet.
▪Connect the 0V and functional ground points (if exist) directly to the earth ground of the system.
▪Use the shortest, less than 1m (3.3 ft.) and thickest, 2.08mm² (14AWG) min, wires possible.
Digital Inputs
Each group of 9 inputs has a common signal. Each group can be used as either pnp (source) or npn (sink), when appropriately wired as shown in
the following figures.
Inputs I0 and I2 can be used as normal digital inputs, as high-speed counters, or as part of a shaft encoder.
Inputs I1 and I3 can be used as normal digital inputs, as high-speed counter resets, or as part of a shaft encoder.

Wiring Power Supplies
Use a 24VDC power supply for all digital outputs.
1. Connect the "positive" lead to the "V0" and
"V1" terminal, and the “negative” lead to the
common "0V" terminal.
▪V0 provides the power supply for Outputs #0, 1, 2,
3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8.
▪V1 provides the power supply for Outputs #9, 10,
11, 12, 13, 14, 15, and 16.
▪In the event of voltage fluctuations or non-
conformity to voltage power supply specifications,
connect the device to a regulated power supply.
Transistor Outputs
▪Outputs 0 and 1 can function as either npn or pnp, in accordance with jumper settings and wiring. Open the device and set the
jumpers according to the instructions beginning on page 6.
▪Outputs 2 to 16 function as pnp only.
▪The 0V signal of the transistor outputs is isolated from the controller’s 0V signal.

Changing Jumper Settings
To access the jumpers, you must remove the snap-in I/O module from the controller, and then remove the module’s PCB board. Before you
begin, turn off the power supply, disconnect and dismount the controller.
▪Before performing these actions, touch a grounded object to discharge any electrostatic charge.
▪Avoid touching the PCB board directly by holding the PCB board by its connectors.
Accessing the Jumpers
First, remove the snap-in module.
1. Locate the 4 buttons on the sides of the module, two
on either side. Press the 2 buttons on either side of
the module as shown, and hold them down to open
the locking mechanism.
2. Gently rock the module from side to side, easing the
module from the controller.
3. Using a Philips screwdriver, remove the
center screw, shown in the figure below,
from the module’s upper PCB board. Do
not remove any other screws.
4. Holding the PCB board by its edges, gently lift it out
of the module.

2. Next, reinstall the module. Line the circular guidelines on the controller up with the guidelines on the Snap-in I/O
Module as shown below.
3. Apply even pressure on all 4 corners until you hear a distinct ‘click’. The module is now installed. Check that
all sides and corners are correctly aligned.
