AO-8 and AO-8-H Central IO Modules

arrow1_rotationAnalog outputs arrow1_rotationSpecifiche

These Central IO modules are analog output, 8-channel I/O modules. You can use the analog outputs to control a wide range of devices, such as valves and actuators, using a 0-10 VDC or 0-20 mA control signal.

Avviso

Module names with an -H indicate the presence of Hand-Off-Auto override switches.

Avviso

The override switches on Central IO modules with manufacturing date earlier than 2021-W26 must be disabled to remove the risk of an improper output. Per maggior informazioni, consulta Important Information on Central IO Modules with Manufacturing Date Earlier Than 2021-W26 .

The following output types are supported:

  • Voltage (0–10 VDC)

  • Current (0–20 mA)

The front panel contains the module status LED, override switches, and adjustable potentiometers.

Analog outputs

The analog outputs (AO) are designed to be used for voltage outputs (VO) or current outputs (CO).

The I/O bus in the terminal base provides the Central IO module with power and an address.

The address value in the I/O bus is increased by one for each terminal base. The I/O bus also enables RS-485 communication between the Central IO module and the automation server.

Voltage outputs
