The RBO 01 ( Relay BLOCK Output)
is a BLOCK type module designed to set and visualize
8 outputs, Relay type,
and to convert them in as many TTL digital lines,that came
out from the module.
The outputs and power supply of TTL section are connected
to a standard 20 pins I/O ABACO® connector allowing
to interface the several grifo®
cards, provided of at least 16 TTL input lines, like GPC®
150, GPC® 552, GPC® 15R, GPC®
188F, PIO 01, IPC 52, GPC® 154, GPC®
884, GPC® 323, GPC® 183, etc. The module
connection with these cards is directly performed with a 20
wires flat cable, as the FLT 20+20 or FLT 26+20
accessories.
The eight 5 A Relay outputs are available on a 24 pins
quick release screw terminal connector, that allows a prompt interface
to the external signals. Another 12 pins quick release
screw terminal connector must be used to provide relays power
supply (12 or 24 Vdc) and it reports the 8
command lines; in this way RBO 01 can be used as a generic
converter from digital signals to relay contacts.
The typical applications of the module are all the on/off driving
of small and medium power devices (Electric Valves, Power Relays,
Signal Buffers, Electric Locks, etc.) through comfortable and
inexpensive TTL I/O lines, without using dedicated digital
cards.
The board features red LEDs that provide the user a visual
feed back about the status of the 8 signals of the RBO
01 module.
RBO 01 is delivered with a plastic mount for DIN 46277-1
and DIN 46277-3 rails and it doesn't require any software
management.
