  • Page 13: Chapter3. Digital I/O Programming

    CHAPTER 3. DIGITAL I/O PROGRAMMING On the PCL-725 card, 8 digital input channels and 8 relay output channels are provided. Two I/O port addresses (started from BASE +0) are reserved for accessing these channels. The two addresses are allocated as :...
  • Page 14: Chapter 4. Customize The Current Limit Resistor

    CHAPTER 4. CUSTOMIZE THE CURRENT LIMIT RESISTOR The default voltage input range of the PCL-725 is from 0V to 24V. To accept higher voltage input, users can replace the current limit resistors, RAO through RA7, for each channel. It is easy to choose the proper current limit resistor. Since the 4N25 isolator has a current rating of 60 mA, your input current can not exceed 60 mA.

    CHAPTER 5. RELAY OUTPUT After power on, the initial relay output status of the PCL-725 is shown as below: Fig. 5-1 A write operation to I/O address, BASE+O, will change the output status of each relay. For example, if Bit 0 of BASE+0 is set as "1" (logic high), relay 0, K0, will switch from position "NORMAL CLOSE", NC0, to position "NORMAL...

    12 V @ 65 mA. Figure 5-2 illustrates an example of a relay contact protection network. For instance, if the load to be switched is 50 V @ 300 mA, then R = 56 ohms and C = 0.009 uF (remember that, for PCL-725's relay output, E = 120 V maximum).
