Digital Inputs

All modules of the MFR series feature 8 digital input channels. The inputs are galvanically isolated from the internal logic and from each other by optocouplers. This ensures high interference immunity in industrial environments.

Pin Assignment

The inputs are fully isolated. Each channel has its own terminal pair (+ / -).

2I2+ / I2-Input Bit 2

Logic & Wiring

The inputs are Active High. This means a voltage difference of 24V between Ix+ and Ix- is interpreted as a logical "1".

  • For common ground: Bridge all Ix- terminals and connect them to ground.
  • For isolated operation: Use both wires per sensor.
