The Input/Output modules function as remote modules.
These devices are:
-
Tego Power devices,
-
Advantys FTB,
-
Advantys OTB,
-
Advantys FTM,
-
Preventa devices.
Tego Power is a modular system which standardizes and simplifies the implementation of motor starters with its pre-wired control and power circuits. In addition, this system enables the motor starter to be customized at a later date, reduces maintenance time and optimizes panel space by reducing the number of terminals and intermediate interfaces and also the amount of ducting.
The following figure gives an example of a Tego Power device:
NOTE: The minimum version for TegoPower APP_1CCO0 and TegoPower APP_1CCO2 is V1.0
The Advantys FTB dispatcher is composed of several input/outputs that allow sensors and activators to be connected.
NOTE: The minimum firmware version for FTB is V1.5.
The following figure gives an example of an Advantys FTB device:
An Advantys OTB device enables you to constitute discrete input/output islands (max.132 channels in boundaries) or analog (max. 48 channels) IP20 and to connect them close to the active captors.
The following figure gives an example of an Advantys OTB device:
NOTE: The minimum firmware version for OTB is V2.0
The Advantys FTM modular system enables you to connect a variable number of
input/output splitter boxes, using a single communication interface (field bus module).
These splitter boxes are connected to the module using a hybrid cable which includes the internal bus and power supply (internal, sensor and actuator).
The input/output splitter boxes are independent of the field bus type, thus reducing the number of splitter box references. Once installed, the system is ready to begin operation.
The following figure gives an example of an Advantys FTM CANopen device:
Preventa devices are electronic safety controllers for monitoring safety functions.
