3. DESCRIPTIONS OF VACON
®
OPTION BOARDS
3.1 Basic boards OPTA_
• Basic boards used for basic I/O; normally pre-installed at the factory.
• This board type uses slots A, B and C.
The standard VACON
®
NXS and NXP AC drives contain two boards placed in slots A and B. The board
in slot A (OPTA1, OPTA8 or OPTA9) has digital inputs, digital outputs, analogue inputs and an
analogue output. The board in slot B (OPTA2) has two change-over relay outputs. As an alternative
to OPTA2, a board of type OPTA3 can also be placed in slot B. In addition to the two relay outputs,
this board has one thermistor input.
The boards you wish to have installed in your AC drive have to be defined in the type designation code
of the AC drive when ordering it from the factory.
