Overview

The Digital I/O Module v2, CE-MD-001-0000__2, extends MachineMotion 2’s functionality with 4 (NPN or PNP) inputs and 4 PNP outputs. This plug-and-play module only requires a single connection to the MachineMotion 2 controller. Compatible modules, such as the Power Switch (CE-MD-005-0000) & additional Digital I/O Module v2 modules can also be daisy chained to each other, making it possible to connect up to eight modules per MachineMotion 2 controller. For details on Vention’s Digital IO Module V1, refer to the ‘Documentation for Previous Product Versions’ section at the bottom of this page.

Features

  • 4 Inputs compatible with NPN and PNP sensors

  • 4 PNP Outputs

  • Connects (daisy chain) with compatible modules

  • Configurable address

  • Plug-and-play access from the Control Center, MachineLogic, and Python API

Programming Options

Program the Digital I/O Module v2 using [MachineLogic] or the [Python API]. It can also be accessed from the Control Center.

Performance and Other Specifications

Specification

Value

Digital input impedance

5kΩ

Digital input active NPN voltage range

< 6V

Digital input active PNP voltage range

> 18V

Digital output maximum current

0.1A

Maximum Power consumption

12W

Latency (with 2 modules connected to the MM2 controller)

125ms max.

Latency has been obtained by connecting a digital output port to a digital input port, and by measuring the delay between requesting the change of output state and reading the change of input state.
