Inputs and Outputs

The RAC18-IP is equipped with 18 inputs and outputs:

  • 4 universal inputs;
  • 4 digital inputs;
  • 3 analog outputs;
  • 5 digital outputs;
  • 2 triac outputs.

Universal Inputs

The RAC18-IP device is equipped with 4 universal inputs.

Universal inputs support four types of input signals:

  • voltage (0-10 V DC, input impedance 100 kΩ);
  • current (0-20 mA);
  • resistance and temperature measurement (10k thermistor, a full list of supported temperature sensors is available here: List of Supported Temperature Sensors);
  • dry contact (output current 1 mA).

Current measurement is realized by voltage measurement and 200 Ω resistance. According to Ohm’s law, the current is directly proportional to the voltage, and the resistance is the constant of proportionality. (I = U / R). According to the Ohm’s law equation, for 20 mA current with 200 Ω resistance the output voltage is 4 V. It means that the 4 V voltage measured on the universal input corresponds to 20 mA current. The result is expressed in millivolts.

Digital Input Counter

A digital input can work as a counter of dry contact pulses up to 100 Hz. The connection is identical as in case of the dry contact input.

Analog Outputs

The RAC18-IP is equipped with 3 analog outputs.

Analog outputs provide a 0-10 V DC output with maximum load up to 20 mA. They support three types of output signals:

  • voltage (0-10 V DC) with maximum load up to 20 mA;
  • digital;
  • Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) 0,01 Hz, 0,1 Hz, 1 Hz, 10 Hz, 100 Hz.
