DINIO - RS485

The DINIO-RS485 is a DIN Rail mount, 16 24V optically isolated channel (8 inputs and 8 outputs), field addressable, expanded Input/Output board. It communicates over an optically isolated RS-485 network, and can be set to baud rates between 2400 and 38400 bps. Each DINIO-RS485 has 2 RJ-45 connectors as well as screw terminal access to allow easy connection of up to 102 blocks (816 inputs and 816 outputs) on a given RS-485 network. Communications are via standard PRINT1 commands on Com Port 1 of any SmartMotor.

Capabilities include:
* Read an individual input (0 through 815) state
* Read an individual output state
* Set an output state to ?ON? (sourcing) or ?OFF.?
* Read all inputs and outputs on all Input/Output cards present
* Responses are global and are received by any and all SmartMotors on the RS-485 network.
* Selectable byte wide responses to array variables.
* Selectable single bit/channel responses to the variable z.
These capabilities allow for convenient event driven coding where only a specific input event is needed to trigger some other event across any SmartMotor on the bus.

Features
* 8 Inputs, sink/source user selectable.
* 8 overload protected sourcing outputs.
* +24 and/or ground rail connections on each channel.
* LED Indications include over-load fault, sink/source selection,
  and Input/Output channel status.
* Feed-thru Bus.

Benefits
* Byte read capability.
* Byte write capability.
* Input/Output devices are easily and conveniently wired.
* Diagnostics at a glance.
* Compatible with other Animatics DIN-rail mount bus products.
