Detailed content

Technical Specifications​
Supply 24 V DC with approximately ±15% tolerance. Digital inputs twelve channels. Digital outputs eight channels. Optional analog inputs two channels according to configuration. Communication EtherNet/IP and Modbus TCP as standard; RS485 optional. Logic response below 1 ms for typical I/O and logic tasks. Mounting standard 35 mm DIN rail. Enclosure rating IP20. Operating temperature −20°C to +65°C. Dimensions approximately 120×80×45 mm. Weight approximately 0.4 kg.
Functional Features​
Twelve digital inputs for sensors, pushbuttons and status contacts. Eight digital outputs for relays, solenoids and indicators. Optional two analog channels for temperature, pressure or 4–20 mA transmitter reading. Ethernet/IP and Modbus TCP integration with SCADA and upper-level controllers. Optional RS485 for legacy instruments and serial devices.
Application Scenarios​
Automotive and 3C assembly line station control. Packaging machines, conveyors and sorting systems. Non-standard industrial equipment automation. Retrofit and spare replacement for existing Automotion control cabinets. Small process skids requiring digital logic plus limited analog monitoring.
Performance Parameters​
24 V DC supply, 12 DI, 8 DO, optional 2 AI, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, optional RS485, sub-millisecond logic response, IP20 DIN-rail enclosure.
Material Composition​
Industrial plastic controller housing. Logic and communication PCB. Spring or screw terminal block according to wiring version. Ethernet RJ45 and optional RS485 interface components.
Structural Characteristics​
Compact DIN-rail controller with front or top I/O terminals. Separate digital input, digital output and optional analog terminal sections. Ethernet port and optional serial port for programming and network integration. Status LEDs for power, communication and I/O.
Working Principle​
The controller scans digital inputs, reads optional analog inputs through A/D conversion, executes user logic and communication tasks, and updates digital outputs. EtherNet/IP or Modbus TCP exchanges process data with SCADA, PLC or HMI; RS485 handles serial instruments where installed.
Installation Requirements​
Mount on 35 mm DIN rail inside an IP20 control cabinet. Connect a stabilized 24 V DC supply with proper fusing. Separate signal, communication and power wiring. Assign IP address, EtherNet/IP parameters or Modbus TCP registers before commissioning. For RS485 option, use shielded twisted-pair cable with correct termination and bias.
Usage Precautions​
Verify 24 V DC supply polarity and voltage tolerance before power-up. Do not overload digital output current ratings. Check analog input range and scaling before connecting transmitters. Inspect ventilation and cabinet temperature to remain within −20°C to +65°C. Use ESD precautions when handling the controller and communication modules.
