Pneumatic interfaces and p neu matic modules
Tab. 2/5 ... Tab. 2/7 provide an overview of the assigned ad-
dress spaces of various pneumatic interfaces and mo dules.
Configuration
of the pneumatics (v alves)
The val ves are configured according to the pneumatic inter-
face used:
– Valves of type 03 (Midi/Maxi), type 12 (CPA) and
type 44/45 (VTSA/VTSA-F or ISO):
For expansion of the valve side, only one configuration
process is required for the pneumatics interface. In the
pneumatic interface, the number of solenoid coils is set
using a DIL switch.
– Valves of type 32 and 33 (MPA-, MPA-F-, MPA- P- and
MPAF-P- or VPPM pneumatic modules):
From a technical point of view, the individual MPA pneu-
matic mo dules each represent an electric module fo r co n-
trolling the attached valves.
A configuration process is required for each pneumatic
module of type M PA... or VPPM:
Pneumatic modules of type MPA1 each occupy 1 byte
A or 8 outputs regardless of how many valves are at-
tached to the pneumatic module.
Pneumatic modules of type MPA2 each occupy
1 byte O or 8 outputs, but only 4 bits are used.
Pneumatic modules of type MPA-P or MPAF-P each
occupy 2 byte I or 16 inputs.
Pneumatic modules of type VPPM each occupy 4
bytes of address space, i.e. 2 bytes I / 2 bytes O or 16 in-
puts and 16 outputs.
