Detailed Description:
-
Multi-Channel Output: Provides 4 independent analog output channels on a compact module, allowing separate connection and control of different actuators.
-
Output Signal Ranges: Each channel can be independently configured for the following industrial standard signals:
-
Voltage Output: ±10 V
-
Current Output: 0 – 20 mA, 4 – 20 mA
-
-
High Precision & Resolution: The module features high-precision digital-to-analog conversion with an output resolution of up to 16 bits (including sign bit), ensuring precise control of actuators.
-
Diagnostic Functions: The module includes diagnostic capabilities to detect short circuits on output channels (for voltage output) and wire breaks (for current output). Fault information is reported to the CPU for easy system maintenance.
-
Electrical Isolation: The analog output channels are optically isolated from the backplane bus, effectively suppressing interference and improving system stability.
-
Compact Design: The module has a width of only 35 mm. It mounts directly to the right side of an S7-1200 CPU or other modules via an integrated U-type connector, enabling simple installation without additional wiring.
-
Status Indication: The module features a DIAG LED indicating its overall operating status. While there are no individual signal LEDs per channel, detailed diagnostic information can be read via software.
