USING AN EXTERNAL POWER SOURCE FOR DIGITAL I/O脗聬s

inputs and outputs are usually powered by an internal 24VDC
power supply. This power supply is rated 200 mA. An EXTERNAL, customer supplied,
power supply can be used in place of the internal power supply. An isolated DC power
supply with tightly regulated 24VDC output voltage is recommended.


Procedure:

A.

OPTO-ISOLATED INPUTS

1.

The opto-isolated inputs (Terminals J2-8 to J2-16) are normally operated
by closing contacts or switches between them and the input common, as
shown in the instruction manuals for each type of VS1 control. Factory
connection of J2-8 (Enable) is made to J3-24 for internal ACTIVE
LOW connection. Jumper JP5, located in the lower right hand corner of
the control circuit board is in position 2 and 3 (DFT side).

2.

If an ACTIVE HIGH connection is desired with internal power supply,
move jumper JP5 to position 2 and 3 of jumper JP6 (INP side), located
just above the jumper JP5 location.

3.

If an EXTERNAL, customer supplied, 24VDC power supply is used, it
will be necessary to again reposition jumper JP5/JP6. If ACTIVE LOW (Sinking) connection is used, place jumper JP5 in position 1 and 2 (EPN
side), and connect the power supply positive (+) and negative (-) terminals
as shown in Fig 1. Active Low Connections.

4.

If an ACTIVE HIGH (Sourcing) connection is used with an
EXTERNAL power supply, place jumper JP6 in position 1 and 2 (ENP
side), and connect the power supply positive (+) and negative (-) terminals
as shown in Fig. 1 Active High Connections.

Note: Jumper JP5/JP6 described above is one jumper only and it is called JP5
or JP6 based on the location on the control board as shown in Fig. 1.

OPTO-ISOLATED OUTPUTS

1.

Two programmable opto-isolated outputs are provided on terminals J2-17
to J2-20. These outputs can be used for external monitoring of various
drive conditions. Each opto output is programmed in Level 1, OUTPUT
SET-UP programming block. They are often powered from an internally
supplied 24VDC. Opto outputs are rated 24VDC @ 60 mA resistive (non-
inductive) load. The maximum voltage drop from digital output to
common, when active, is 1.0VDC (TTL compatible).
2.

The two opto-isolated outputs can be used to switch an EXTERNAL 10-
30VDC supply, and may be configured for either a sourcing or sinking
mode. However, both must be configured the same. Power connections
for sourcing and sinking modes with EXTERNALLY supplied 24VDC are
shown in Fig. 2.

If the digital outputs are used to directly drive a DC relay coil, a flyback
diode rated at 1 Amp, 100V (IN 4002 or equivalent) should be connected
across the relay coil to reduce noise transmission as shown in Fig. 3.

3.

Two programmable relay outputs are also provided. They are available as
Form-C, Normally Open (N.O.) and Normally Closed (N.C.), voltage-free
contacts on terminals J3-25 to J3-30. Relay outputs are rated 10-30VDC
or 240VAC @ 5 Amp resistive (non-inductive) load.

If the relay outputs are used to directly drive an AC relay coil, install an RC snubber
(0.47 uF capacitor in series with a 33 ohm resistor) across the coil to reduce noise
transmission. For a DC relay coil use a flyback diode as described in item B-2 above.


The relay contacts and AC/DC coil noise suppression circuits are shown in Fig. 3.
