Input/Output Modules
General Description
Trio can supply a range of Input/Output Modules and Operator Interface Units.
The Motion Coordinator controllers allow for I/O expansion by having a CAN
interface. This allows the I/O modules to form a network up to 100m in length.
The operator interface units all communicate with controllers using the Trio
fibre-optic network system. Alternatively third party operator interface units
may be connected via a serial port. A third option is for machine manufacturers
to build a dedicated operator interface for their application. Dedicated operator
interfaces can be easily connected to the Trio fibre-optic network by building in a
flexible interface board: FO-VFKB.
CAN 16-I/O Module (P315)
The CAN 16-I/O Module allows the 24 volt digital inputs and outputs of the
Motion Coordinator to be expanded in blocks of 16 bi-directional channels.
Up to 16 CAN 16-I/O Modules may be connected allowing up to 256 I/O channels
in addition to the internal channels built-in to the Motion Coordinator. Each of
the 16 channels in each module is bi-directional and can be used either as an
input OR as an output.
Convenient disconnect terminals are used for all I/O connections.
The CAN 16-I/O Module may also be used as an I/O expander for Lenze drives
with an appropriate CAN interface.
