IP232x-Bxxx, IE232x Signal Connection
4 Channel Digital Output 24 VDC, Imax = 2.0 A, 4 digital inputs, 3.0 ms filter
The IP232x digital output modules connect the binary control signals from the automation unit on to the actuators at the process level. The 4 outputs handle load currents of up to 2.0 A, and indicate their status through light emitting diodes. The signals are optionally connected via 8 mm snap-in plugs (IP2320), screw-in M8 connectors (IP2321) or screw-in M12 connectors (IP2322). The outputs are protected against short circuit and against inverse connection, and are located on the lower half of the Fieldbus Box. In the S8 and M8 these are the lower 4 sockets, and on the devices with M12 connections they are the bottom two; in the M12 version, 2 outputs are located at one socket.
The digital inputs acquire the binary control signals from the
process level and transmit them to the higher-level automation
unit. The signal state is indicated by means of light emitting
diodes. The signals are optionally connected via 8 mm snap-on
plugs, screw-in M8 connectors or screw-in M12 connectors. The
inputs are located on the upper half of the Fieldbus Box. In the S8
and M8 these are the upper 4 sockets, and on the devices with M12
connections they are the upper two; in the M12 version, 2 inputs
are located at one socket.
The sensors are supplied from the control voltage US.
The load voltage, UP, is required for the output
drivers. If UP and US are used for passing
the power on, the maximum current must not exceed 4 A.
