In general all grippers are controlled via a DIO module on the DIN rail. Normally, even when no gripper has been supplied, the modular control electronics come with a single DIO module.
Electrical Integration
Digital Outputs
The digital outputs are at the bottom of the image on the left.
- Connect a (external 24V) power supply to the D-out A SUP (see image on the left)
- The supply voltage can be output to the pins labeled DOut A 1-3 and D-out B 4-7. There are seven separate reed relays that do the switching.
- Depending on the gripper in use, connect the positive side of a solenoid valve or electrical gripper output pin. Here D-out B pin 5.
- Connect the negative side of the gripper to GND of the same power supply to close the electrical circuit.
- See the example with the lamp on output 5 on the left.
