8.1 Position Pulse Output
8.11 Purpose
The Position Pulse Output function on the DP8 provides a means by which external devices such as relays
or programmable logic controllers (PLC’s) can be used to control a machine from the DP8.
Only ow voltage connections may be made to the auxiliary input/output of the DP8.
8.12 Outputs
There are three optically isolated outputs for this function. These are transistor outputs with both the
collectors and emitters uncommitted, i.e. equivalent to voltage free contacts. The transistors are normally
in the ON state (normally closed contacts) and change to the OFF state when active. The rating of the
transistors is:-
Vc MAX = 30V
Ic MAX = 40mA
Figure 8.2 shows an axample of use with relays
