channel pairs, to power supply and CAN-bus, but not within pair
Technical data DI16.
6.8.1 Overview
The imc CANSAS DI16 module has 16 digital inputs which can be sampled at up to 10 kHz. The inputs are
arranged in pairs each having a common reference ground. The 2 inputs within a pair are not mutually
isolated, but each pair is isolated from the other pairs, the chassis the power supply and the CAN-bus.
As well as each being sampled as single bit signals, the 16 digital inputs can all be sampled together as a
digital word. For this purpose, a digital port can additionally be configured. If the entire port is sampled, it
can return values from 0 (zero) to 65535, in other words it is interpreted as an unsigned 16-bit integer.
However, if only a single bit is used, its data type is "digital" and it occupies only 1 bit on the CAN-bus.
6.8.2 Settings
The properties which can be specified for the digital
channels are Name and Comment.
In the dialog digital inputs, the properties
applicable to all the digital channels are set.
Input voltage
The input voltage range for all the digital inputs can
be toggled between 5 V (TTL-range) and the 24 V
range.
