Key Functions

• Basic Data Processing & Sequential Control:
  Processes input signals from external sensors or control devices (e.g., start/stop triggers, status feedback) and executes preconfigured control logic (e.g., sequential startup of equipment, interlock protection) to regulate the operation of connected industrial devices (e.g., inverters, motors). It supports simple logic programming to adapt to site-specific control workflows.

• I/O Signal Management:
  Features configurable digital input/output (I/O) channels (specific count subject to ABB’s technical specifications) for connecting discrete devices:

• Digital inputs: Accept 24V DC signals for receiving control commands or status signals from PLCs/HMIs.

• Digital outputs: Transmit status feedback (e.g., "module ready," "equipment running") to external indicators or relay coils, with overload protection to prevent damage from short circuits.

• RS-232C Serial Communication:
  Incorporates an RS-232C communication port with the following specifications:

• Logic standard: Negative logic ( -5V to -15V = logic "1"; +5V to +15V = logic "0" ).

• Communication distance: Up to 15 meters (suitable for short-range device connection).

• Transmission rate: 20kb/s (supports low-speed, real-time data exchange).

• Topology: Point-to-point communication (only supports one-to-one device connection, no multi-device networking).
  This port enables parameter monitoring, configuration adjustments, and status reporting between the module and upper-level devices (e.g., a PC running ABB configuration software).

• Fault Detection & Protection:
  Monitors internal circuit status and external signal integrity. If anomalies occur (e.g., communication loss, I/O short circuit, overvoltage), it triggers a local fault alert (via LED indicator) and transmits fault codes to connected devices, facilitating quick troubleshooting.
