The CANit CANopen I/O module series has been developed for
universal 24V DC applications. The CANit I/O modules are available in various
I/O configurations. The housing can be chosen
between black aluminium housing or green plastic. Both are
suitable for mounting on carrier rail. Alternatively the CANit I/O modules can be bought without any housing,
too, for direct screw mounting in a
machine or apparat.
The 24V DC inputs and outputs are highside voltage switching (PNP-logic). All
outputs are overload and short circuit protected. The I/Os are isolated from
the CAN-bus and displayed by signal LEDs.
The CAN-bus
interface meets DS401. Node ID and baudrate are
adjustable by DIP-switches. The bus termination resistor can be activated
by a DIP-switch, too. The transmission modes of the PDOs can be chosen between event
related,
time related, synchronous, asynchronous or remote frame related according
to DS301. The connection of the CAN-bus is galvanically isolated and using the
bus transceiver 82C251 according to ISO11898 standard.
