EMC low voltage directive 73/23/EWG. When putting the device into operation especially with voltages greater than 42 V please follow the appropriate standards, installation instructions and na- tional safty standards. Meilhaus Electronic GmbH assumes no re- sponsibility for damage in case of faulty installation, operation or handling.
The opto-isolated I/Os of the models ME-632, ME-633 and ME-634 are isolated up to 2500 VAC The ME-63Xtend series can be connected with many multi-I/O and digital-I/O boards using appropriate connection cables. The I/O-board requires at least two 8-bit TTL input resp. output ports.

Rev. 1.2E Manual ME-63Xtend Series Attention : Make sure that no contact with voltage carrying parts can happen by the wiring of the board. The external connections to the board should only be made or removed in a powered down state.
Manual ME-63Xtend Series Rev. 1.2E ME-631 The ME-631 is an external relay board with 16 change-over relays (form C). The relays can switch up to 30 VDC/6 A or 240 VAC/6 A (specifications see page 37). To drive the relays a buffer circuit is inserted.

Manual ME-63Xtend Series Rev. 1.2E ME-632 The ME-632 is an external extension board with 16 opto-isola- ted digital input channels. The voltage high-level can be in the range of 2.5…60V (specifications see page 39). For each channel the positive and negative input is connected with the clamp. The 4 channels of a clamp are combined in a group.
Manual ME-63Xtend Series Rev. 1.2E 2.2.2 Jumper Settings By jumper a common reference can be made between the invol- ved channels of a group (see diagram 6). The input channels can be refered alternatively to a positive reference voltage or to a common ground. For every channel, which should be refered to a positive reference, the correspon- ding jumper JPxa must be set.
Manual ME-63Xtend Series Rev. 1.2E ME-633 The ME-633 is an external extension board with 16 opto-isola- ted digital output channels. The outputs are designed as open collector outputs and can switch up to 60V (specifications see page 41). For each channel the positive and negative output is connected with the clamp.
Manual ME-63Xtend Series Rev. 1.2E 2.3.2 Jumper Settings By jumper a common reference can be made between the invol- ved channels of a group (see diagram 9). For the output channels a common ground can be defined for each group. For every channel, which should be refered to it, the corresponding jumper JPx must be set.
Rev. 1.2E Manual ME-63Xtend Series 2.3.3 Pullup Resistors As pullup resistors R (see diagram 9) resistor arrays with 4 se- parate resistors come with the package. If you want to use pullup resistors a positive reference for the groups KL1 and KL2 must be done by clamp KL1.10. For the groups KL3 and KL4 a positive reference must be done by clamp KL3.10.
Rev. 1.2E Manual ME-63Xtend Series ME-634 The ME-634 is an external extension board with 8 opto-isolated digital output channels and 8 opto-isolated digital input channels. The outputs are designed as open collector outputs and can switch up to 60V. The voltage high-level of the inputs can be in the range of 2.5…60V (specifications see page 43).
Rev. 1.2E Manual ME-63Xtend Series 2.4.2 Jumper Settings By jumper a common reference can be made between the invol- ved channels of a group (see diagram 13). For the output channels a common ground can be defined for each group (KL1 resp. KL2). For every channel, which should be refered to it, the corresponding jumper JPx must be set.
Manual ME-63Xtend Series Rev. 1.2E 2.4.3 Pullup Resistors As pullup resistors R for the output channels (see diagram 14) resistor arrays with 4 separate resistors come with the package. If you want to use pullup resistors a positive reference for the groups KL1 and KL2 must be done by clamp KL1.10.
Manual ME-63Xtend Series Rev. 1.2E ME-635 The ME-635 is an external relay board with 16 solid-state relays. The relays can switch up to 5 A/240 VAC (specifications see page 43).
