The EP2028 EtherCAT Box with digital outputs connects binary control signals from the controller to the
actuators at the process level. The 8 outputs handle load currents of up to 2 A each, although the total
current is limited to 4 A. This makes these modules particularly suitable for applications in which not all of the
outputs are active at the same time, or in which not all of the actuators draw 2 A signal current.
The signal state is indicated by means of light emitting diodes. The signals are connected optionally via M8
connectors (EP2028­0001) or M12 connectors (EP2028­0002). The outputs are short­circuit proof and
protected against inverse connection.
