CONTEC Digital I/O USB I/O Unit 8ch/8ch (Isolated 12 – 24VDC / Power Relay – 240VAC – 28VDC) – The N Series DIO-0808RN-USB

Optocoupler isolated input (compatible with current sink output/current source output). Relay outputs (Form C) with independent common

This product is an USB 2.0-compliant digital I/O unit that extends the input function of digital signal from the USB port of PC and output signals to SPDT relay contacts. This product is compatible with input digital signals at 12 - 24VDC which features 8 channels of Opto-coupler isolated inputs (compatible with current sink output/current source output) and 8 channels of SPDT relay outputs with independent common. Compact design not restricting installation location (188.0(W) x 78.0(D) × 30.5(H)) makes it easy to install the product within the panel or device using DIN rail mounting jigs, or on the floor or wall. Windows/Linux device driver is supported with this product.

Features

  • Optocoupler isolated input (compatible with current sink output/current source output)
    This product has 8 channels of Optocoupler isolated inputs (compatible with current sink output/current source output) whose response speed is 200µsec, supporting driver voltages of 12 – 24 VDC for input. 8 channels share one common.
  • Relay outputs (Form C) with independent common
    This product has 8 channels of SPDT relay outputs (Form C) with independent common. Independent common terminal provided per channel, capable of supporting a different external power supply. High-capacity output rating is designed to be a maximum of 6A 240V (AC), 5A 28V (DC) per channel.
  • Compact design not restricting installation location (188.0(W) x 78.0(D) x 30.5(H))
    Compact design of 188.0(W) × 78.0(D) × 30.5(H) does not require special installation location.
  • Easy-to-wire terminal connector adopted
    Adoption of terminal connector (with screws) enables to achieve easy wiring.
  • Diverse installations such as screw fastening, magnet, DIN rail are possible
    Installation on the floor / wall /ceiling is possible by screw fastening, magnet, rubber feet, etc. In addition, DIN rail mounting mechanism is equipped as standard with the product, making it easy to install the product within the panel or the device.
  • Windows/Linux support device driver
    Using the device driver API-TOOL makes it possible to create applications of Windows/Linux. In addition, a diagnostic program by which the operations of hardware can be checked is provided.
