Function
The AS-Interface connecting module is ideal for integrating custom electronics, such as illuminated pushbuttons or LED lights. The PCB is supplied with power entirely via AS-Interface. The inputs and outputs are resistant to short circuits and overloading. The display and control elements and AS-Interface are connected via cable strands.
A signal indicating an overload of the outputs is transmitted to the AS-Interface master via the "peripheral fault" function. The communication via AS-Interface remains unaffected.
Note:
A communication monitoring function is integrated into the system. This function disconnects the outputs from the power supply when no communication is taking place on the AS-Interface line.
