SFAR-S-8DI8DO

SfAR-S-8DI8DO is a controller’s I/O extension, which, thanks to its unique features, fits a variety of applications, for example, measuring the working time of devices. The module has 8 digital inputs (DI) and 8 digital outputs (DO). Digital inputs can work as fast pulse counters with up to 1000 counts per sec, or timers measuring the ON state and offering a possibility to connect 2 encoders.
Digital inputs support both PNP and NPN input types. Digital outputs are PNP transistor outputs. All inputs and outputs are isolated from the logic with optoisolators. A built-in RS485 interface allows an easy connection over the Modbus RTU/ASCII protocol. A 32-bit ARM core processor provides fast processing and communication. The module is equipped with a set of LEDs used to indicate the status of I/Os, power supply, and RS485 communication. Configuration of the module is carried out with our free software, the SfAR
Configurator. A built-in mini USB allows for performing a primary configuration of the unit without an additional power supply. The module has been equipped with the Quick Connector system to simplify installation. Using a dedicated SfAR-S-LINK cable allows for connecting up to 10 modules, which provide both RS485 communication and external power supply
