The EP20280032 EtherCAT Box with digital outputs connects the binary control signals from the controller
on to the actuators at the process level.
The eight outputs handle load currents of up to 2.8 A each, although the total current is limited to 16 A.
Thence this modules are especially suitable for applications, at which a high utilization factor with high output
current is necessary.
The signal state is indicated by means of light emitting diodes. The signals are connected via M12 type
connectors. The outputs are shortcircuitproof and protected against inverse connection.
Pin 2 and 4 of channel 0 and 1, channel 2 and 3, channel 4 and 5 as well as channel 6 and 7 are connected.
Therefore also actuators witch needs 2 outputs can be connected via one M12 cable.
