Motion Coordinator Technical Reference Manual
Hardware Overview 2-15
Motion Coordinator Euro205(X)
24v Input Channels
The Motion Coordinator has 16 24v Input channels built into the master unit.
These may be expanded to 256 Inputs by the addition of CAN-16 I/O modules.
24v Output Channels
8 output channels are provided. These channels are labelled 8..15 for compati-
bility with other Motion Coordinators, but are NOT bi-directional as on some
Motion Coordinators. Each channel has a protected 24v sourcing output. The
output circuit has electronic over-current protection and thermal protection
which shuts the output down when the current exceeds 250mA. Care should still
be taken to ensure that the 250mA limit for the output circuit is not exceeded,
and that the total load for the group of 8 outputs does not exceed 1 amp. Up to
256 further Outputs may be added by the addition of CAN-16I/O modules (P315).
