Beckhoff Automation ep1816-1008

The EP1816-1008 EtherCAT Box with digital inputs acquires the binary control signals from the process level and transmits them, in an electrically isolated form, to the controller. The state of the signals is indicated by light emitting diodes. The signals are connected via 25-pin D-sub socket. The sensors are supplied from the box supply voltage US. The auxiliary voltage UP is not used in the input module, but may be connected in order to be relayed downstream.   The EtherCAT Box also has a different pin assignment than the EP1816-0008.
