4 Digital Input Channels

Digital input channel configuration and protection

The input channels of the Lucid485 Serial Modbus Digital IO Module are carried out optical and potential insulated in order to protect the hardware and give higher flexibility in design.

Voltage threshold levels of the digital input channels

The Lucid485 Modbus Digital IO Module is available for 3 different threshold input voltages of the ranges 5V, 10V and 24V in order to interface with many different devices directly without conversion of input levels.

Digital input channel operation modes

In order to give most flexibility each of the 4 input channels of the Modbus Digital Input Output Module can operate in one of the following modes:

Mode	Function
Reflect Mode	Samples a digital input signal and provide its conditioned and debounced state.
Edge Detection Mode	High speed sampling of digital inputs and detecting rising or falling edges in real-time.
Count Mode	Configurable high speed counter allows to acquire a wide range of pulses and sensors.

Signal conditioning and debouncing

Filters can be applied to each input channel in order to suppress erroneous signal states.

High sampling rate

Ensures signal detection without activity of the host computer which is crucial in order to guarantee precise timing.

4 Digital Output Channels

Digital output channel configuration and protection

The optical and potential insulated outputs are realized by using solid state relays (SSR). The Modbus Digital IO Module with SSR provides the best overall capabilities and high protection level for controlling power loads like pumps, fans or heating elements by statically switching or by periodically pulsing. Each digital output is rated with 24 V and 0.75 A and can switch loads up to 18 Watt.

Digital output operation modes

The 4 outputs of the Lucid485 Serial Modbus Digital IO Module can operate in different modes:

Mode	Function
Reflect Mode	Generates a digital output signal by setting the channels state directly.
Duty-Cylce Mode	Generates a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) by configuring cycle time and duty cycle. This mode can be used in order to control the power of loads by pulsing them periodically.
On-Off Mode	Generates a time sequenced output signal. Using this mode the Modbus RTU IO Module can be used to realize e.g. time switches.

Lucid485 Data Acquisition and Control Modules

The Lucid485 product series is a cost effective solution for realizing a remote I/O system.

Multi-protocol support

In order to be most flexible, the Lucid485 module supports multiple protocols. The Modbus RTU protocol gives access to IO values like voltage or digital states.

The LucidControl Network Frame protocol is compatible with of our IO modules and gives full documented access to the unit.

Support of the industry standard ASCII protocol is planned.

Industrial ready Design

The housing of LucidControl can be directly mounted on Din-rails ready for switch board assembly.
Using industrial standard IO connectors ensures reliable interconnection.

Easy installation of Hard and Software

The Lucid485 Modbus RTU Digital Output Modules are easy to install and start working immediately after set up.
Tools like the Command Line Tool and APIs for Windows and Linux are available. The API is ready for .NET, Java and Python.
