Description

MIO Module is an accessory of the Picolo Pro 3 and Picolo Tetra modular architecture, serving both the internal and external configurations. MIO Module brings flexible isolated logic inputs and outputs.

MIO offers 4 opto-isolated input lines and 4 reed relay output lines. They are natively supported by the MultiCam driver. Each input line is interrupt-capable, with independent edge sensitivity control. The status of the lines is monitored by 8 dedicated LEDs.

The 4th relay output can be configured as an alarm, a watchdog or a standard output. In alarm mode, as long as the application is not started, the relay remains open. Once operating correctly, the application closes the relay. In watchdog mode, as long as the application is not started, the relay remains open. Once operating correctly, the application resets regularly the watchdog timer. If a watchdog time out occurs, the relay is closed.

Each line is available as a pair of electrical wires on the removable sixteen terminal block.
