EL400x - Introduction
One, two, four and eight-channel analog output terminals, 0..10 V, 12 bit
The EL4001, EL4002, EL4004 and EL4008 analog output terminals generate signals in the range between 0 and 10 V. The voltage is supplied to the process level with a resolution of 12 bits, and is electrically isolated. The output channels of the EtherCAT Terminals have a common ground potential. The EL4001 is the single-channel variant which when combined with the EL95xx is particularly suitable for signals with electrically isolated ground potentials. The output stages are powered by the 24 V supply. The signal state of the EtherCAT Terminals is indicated by light emitting diodes.
The EL400x supports distributed clocks, i.e. the input data can be monitored synchronously with other data that are also linked to distributed clock terminals. The accuracy across the system is < 100 ns.
