2.1 Relay Output
• For PCI-P8R8 / PCI-P16R16 Only
Whenever data is written data to the output control register, the relays will
switch to NC or NO as specified by the control code. A｀1＇in the control
register will energize the corresponding relay. The relay will switch from COM to
NO (normally open ). A ｀0＇ in the control register will turn off the
corresponding relay and the relay will be switch from COM to NC (normally
closed). The control register powers-on in NC mode. A hardware reset signal or
programmable reset signal will also turn the relay to NC!!
The following figures show how to use the relay.
