7.8 Digital inputs/outputs
The digital inputs/outputs (optional extra) can be individually switched between input and output. The in-
puts are actuated with an external voltage DC 0/24 V or via a potential-free contact (auxiliary voltage in
place). The outputs provide an output signal of DC 0/24 V.
As digital inputs, they are pooled into groups along with other digital signals in the "Groups" configuration
and are then available for further use via these groups.

Parameter
Behavior after power on
During the device's initialization phase, all connections are actuated as digital inputs, even if they were
previously configured as digital outputs.
7.8.1 Signal monitoring
Signal monitoring (alarm) can be activated for each digital input/output.

No selection
Digital signal output via the digital output.
"No selection": the output signal corre-
sponds to the "Low" state (0 V for non-in-
verted signals, 24 V for inverted signals).
Signal inversion Inversion of the input or output signal
No The signal is not inverted.
Yes The signal is inverted.
