The ED1829 digital input terminal acquires the binary 24 V DC control signals

from the process level and transmits them, in electrically isolated form, to the

higher-level automation device. The EtherCAT Terminal contains 16 channels

whose signal state is indicated by LEDs. Due to the flexible switching logic,

each channel can be used for positive or ground switching. The switching

mode is determined automatically by the connected reference potential

without configuration. This creates two defined voltage ranges in which

the signal is reliably recognized as logical “1.”

Special features:

• intelligent switching logic per channel: positive or ground switching without

configuration

• no bouncing due to mechanical switches thanks to 3 ms input filter

• space-saving use in the control cabinet

• direct connection of multi-channel sensors using single-ended connection

technique in the smallest space

The ED series EtherCAT Terminals have push-in connection technology which

makes wiring easy and tool-free.
