Discrete inputs
In discrete input mode, logic voltage signals can be connected and state changes from various devices can be registered.
The universal discrete/pulse inputs accept devices with the following output types:
-
reed switch, relay contacts, mechanical button (dry contact)
info
Contact bounce can occur when a contact is opened or closed, leading to multiple registered pulses instead of a single one.
To suppress this, set the Capture Type parameter to Combi.
-
«open drain» (diode or transistor)
When connecting electronic meters and signal sources, set the Capture Type parameter to Interrupt.
In this state, the pull-up will always be enabled, and debouncing will be disabled.
info
Devices with pulse output of type NAMUR are not supported.
