CV8 Module (RMC200)

8 Voltage Outputs, with 8 Discrete I/O

The CV8 module for the RMC200 provides 8 voltage outputs intended for controlling an actuator. The module includes 8 discrete I/O that can be individually configured as general-purpose inputs, general-purpose outputs, Fault Inputs, or Enable Outputs.

Features

8 voltage outputs: ±10 VDC
Supports custom ranges within the ±10 VDC range, such as 0-10 V, 0-5 V, 1-5 V, etc.
18 bit resolution
8 individually-configurable discrete I/O, 12-24 VDC input or Solid State Relay output
Discrete I/O may be used as Enable inputs or Fault outputs
Unpluggable terminal blocks

Part Number

The part number of the CV8 module is R200-CV8.

Setting Up the CV8 Module

Wiring

See CV8 Wiring.

Axis Definitions

In order to use a CV8 analog output, it must be assigned to an RMC internal software axis, via the Axis Definitions Dialog.

Output Parameters

After a CV8 analog output has been assigned to an axis, the following axis parameters must be configured:

LEDs

Light Bar

State	Description
Off	No power to the RMC200 or the module was not inserted when the RMC200 powered up.
Blue	The module was recognized at power-up.

Control Output LEDs: Out0 .. Out7

State	Description
Off	Not assigned The output is not assigned to an axis.
Green	Operating normally The axis is operating normally with no latched errors.
Red	Error The axis has at least one error bit set that has halted the axis.
Amber	Simulate mode The axis is in simulate mode.

Discrete I/O LEDs: D0 .. D7

State	Description
Off	I/O point is off If this I/O point is configured as an input, then the input is currently low. If this I/O point is configured as an output, then the output is currently open.
Orange	Input is on This I/O point is configured as an input, and the input is currently high.
Yellow	Output is on This I/O point is configured as an output, and the output is currently closed.
