Digital Input Module Wiring Diagram

Module Installation/Disassembly

Installation

1. Align the red arrow on the side of the module to the arrow on the DIN rail.
2. Press the module down and the metal clamp will slide (thanks to its spring mechanism) and grab on the other side of the DIN rail. Continue to push down until the metal clamp “clicks”.

*Note: Make sure the red arrows on the module and the rail are pointing the same direction.

Removal

1. Use a screwdriver to pull the metal hook sideways and detach the module from the DIN rail.
2. Remove all modules from the DIN rail in reverse order of installation.

iO-GRID M series utilizes the standard Modbus communication protocol and supports Modbus RTU/ASCII and Modbus TCP. Please choose products and factory controllers to figure your system based on your communication protocol.

iO-GRID M Components

DINKLE Bus Rail 1 to 4 are defined for power supply and rail 5 to 7 are defined for communication.

DINKLE Bus Rail Definitions

Gateway Module

A gateway module converts between Modbus TCP and Modbus RTU/ASCII. The module provides two sets of external Ethernet ports to connect to the controller and the Internet There are two types of gateway modules available: 4-channel gateway module: Provides 4 RS485 ports to connect to a control module
Single-channel gateway module: No external connectivity for the RS485 ports. The RS485 signals are transmitted via DINKLE Bus and I/O module.

Gateway module products information

Control module

The control module manages I/O modules and sets up the configuration. Provides external RS485 ports to connect to the controller. There are two types of control modules available: 3-channel control module:

• Provides 3 external RS485 ports, suitable stations with 2 or more control modules. Among the RS485 ports, 2 of them will be connected to the controller and the control module of the next station.

Single-channel control module
Provides one single RS485 port to connect to the controller, suitable for single-module stations.

Digital Input Module Control Register Description

Digital Input Module Register Communication Method

1. Use Modbus RTU/ASCII to read single-chip digital input module registers The address for the digital input module register to be read is: 0x1000

• With no control module, RS485’s physical wire must be connected with an adapter to send the signal to the Dinkle Bus
• The configuration that uses Modbus RTU/ASCII to read single-chip digital input module registers is listed below:

Use Modbus RTU/ASCII with control modules to read single-chip analog input module registers

Once a digital input module is set up with a control module, it will automatically assign digital input modules’ input records register at 0x1000. If there are multiple registers, they will be assigned addresses based on the module station number.

Example

Two digital input module registers will at 0x1000 and 0x1001

• When using control modules, RS485 can connect to control modules with 0170-0101.
• The configuration that uses Modbus RTU/ASCII to read analog input module registers is listed below:

Input Module Register Format Information (0x1000, rewritable)

GFDI-RM01N Register Format: Channel open-1; channel closed – 0; reserved value – 0.

Example: With all channels open: 1111 1111 1111 1111 (0xFF 0xFF); with channel 1 to 8 open: 0000 0000 1111 1111 (0x00 0xFF); with all channels closed: 0000 0000 0000 0000 (0x00 0x00).
