MM8AO
The MM8AO is a 8 channel current output module. Each channel can be
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 - 20mA. A value of 819 ± 1LSB will give a current output of
4mA.
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
MM8AO module will automatically read the information from the MM8AI
module and write the input status to the outputs.
When used as a slave module, the outputs are written to by
the Modbus master device such as a PC or PLC.
