Details: VAA-4E4A-KE-ZE/R
Function
The VBA-4E4A-KE-ZE/R AS-Interface I/O module is a cabinet module with 4 inputs and 4 relay outputs. The only 22.5 mm width housing requires not much space in the switch cabinet. The module is installed by snapping on the 35 mm DIN Rail in accordance with EN 50022.
The connection is made through plug-in terminals. For the inputs and outputs 4-way-terminal blocks (inputs black, outputs red) are used. The connection of the AS-Interface is made via a 2-way-terminal block (yellow). In order to avoid exchanges, the terminals for inputs and outputs as well as AS-Interface are coded mechanically.
The power supply of the inputs and the connected sensors can be made as required via the internal supply of the module (AS-Interface) or via an external voltage source. The switching is carried out by means of a switch that is positioned at the side of the module. The selection of the internal input supply is indicated via the LED INT. The current switching state of each input and output is indicated by the resp. LED IN and OUT.
Note:
The device is equipped with a communication monitoring, which switches the outputs to their de-energized state, when there is no AS-Interface communication with the module for more than 40 ms.
An overloading of the internal input supply will be reported via the function 'peripheral error' to the AS-Interface master. The communication via the AS-Interface remains intact.
