Module Installation/Disassembly

Installation

  1. With the front of the relay output module facing you, press the module down with the signal input ports against the upper side of the DIN rail.
  2. Press the module down and the plastic clamp will slide. Continue to push down until the plastic clamp “clicks”.
    Installation

Removal

  1. Use a screwdriver to pull the plastic clamp sideways and detach the module from the DIN rail.
  2. Remove the relay output module from the DIN rail in reverse order of installation.

Relay Output Module Control Register Description

Relay Output Module Register Communication Method
Use Modbus RTU/ASCII to write in single-chip relay output module registers The address for the relay output module register to be written is: 0x2000
Communication Method
Communication Method

※With no control module, RS485’s physical wire must be connected with an adapter to send the signal to the power and relay output module

| 1| 2| 3| 4| 5| 6| 7| 8
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---
Adapter BS-211| 24V| 0V| 5V| 0V| 485A| ─| 485B| ─
Terminal block 0181-A106| 24V| 0V| 5VDC| 0V| 485A| | 485B|

Use Modbus RTU/ASCII with control modules to write in relay output registers
Once a relay output module is set up with a control module, it will automatically assign the relay output

modules’ output records registers at the address of 0x2000

Example:
Two relay output module registers will be between 0x2000 and 0x2001
Communication Method

※When using control modules, RS485 can connect to control modules with BS-210 and BS-211

The configuration that uses Modbus RTU/ASCII with a control module to write in relay output modules is listed below:
