The main task of the Irinos-Box IR-MASTER is the communication with the PC. It is available in two types:
oType IR-MASTER-IOB-64-64-0-SYSP-ETHIL has a connector for the IO-Bus. It allows the connection of external I/O-Boxes with digital in- and outputs. These are available as a desktop version or for hat rail / DIN rail mounting.
oType IR-MASTER-KB1-68-68-3-SYSP-ETHIL is additionally equipped with 4 digital inputs, 4 digital outputs and 3 analogue inputs ±10V (see figure).
The definition of the type string is as follows:

Connectors / Elements
The Irinos-Box IR-MASTER has the following elements (depending on type):
oILink interface for the connection of additional Slave-Boxes
oEthernet interface for the connection to the PC
o2x2 digital inputs and 2x2 digital outputs
oIO-Bus - for the connection of I/O-Boxes

IO-Bus
The IO-Bus is internally always handled as 64 digital in- and outputs. I.e. if an Irinos-Box IR-MASTER is used, the first 64 digital inputs are assigned to the IO-Bus. The same applies to the digital outputs. This is also the case, if no I/O-Box is connected to the IO-Bus.
The 4 integrated digital in- and outputs are counted as input / output 65..68.
Each integrated in- and output has an additional Status-LED. It is turned on, if the respective in- or output is at high level.
Analogue inputs
The analogue inputs are measured synchronously (no multiplexing).
In order to allow a quick exchange of the Irinos-Box by an identical type, all input channels are digitally pre-calibrated to deliver -32.000 digits at -10V and +32.000 digits at +10V.
Due to their high input impedance, the measurement value may float if no input signal is connected. This is not a defect. It is a consequence of the high-class input specificatons. |
