The PM8VO is a 8 channel voltage output module. Each channel can be set to output a voltage in the range 0 – 10V. The outputs are isolated from the logic and share a common negative terminal.

The resolution is 12 bits, so writing a value to the Modbus register for each output of 0 – 4095 would give an output current of 0 – 10V. A value of 819 ± 1LSB will give a current output of 2V.

The module may be used as either a slave or master on the Modbus network. When used with a PC or PLC the module will be configured as a slave. When used with a PM8AI module in a point-to-point configuration, the DIP switch 9 must be turned on to set the module up as a master. In this mode the PM8VO module will automatically read the information from the PM8AI module and write the input status to the outputs.

PROMUX RS485 (I/O Modules)

PROMUX is an innovative modular I/O system which provides a simple low cost solution for distributed I/O requirements.

The PROMUX system consists of stand-alone Digital and Analog Input and Output modules which are connected together on a RS485 two wire multi-drop network. The modules communicate using the MODBUS RTU protocol.

A 32bit ARM CPU is used in the modules to provide high speed data processing and fast communications turn around times. Multiple baud rates are selectable from 2400 to 115200 baud.

All PROMUX modules plug directly onto an industry standard DIN rail. All modules have a minimum isolation of 1000VAC rms between the field and logic. The modules have been equipped with status led’s which are used to indicate the status of the Inputs or outputs. This visual indication assists with fault finding and diagnostics.
