Features:
- Sources sixteen discrete DC output points.
- Uses a removable board for screw-terminal field connections.
- Switches resistive loads on in 0.1 ms.
The normal 5 to 24 VDC range gives system designers room to serve several low-voltage load classes without treating the 40 VDC peak limit as a continuous rating.
Typical ON-state drop changes with load current, reaching 0.8 VDC at 0.5 A and 0.7 VDC at 0.1 A under the published test conditions.
Rack planning must include twenty units of load at 9 VDC, while each energized point adds its stated internal current demand.

Assigning sixteen source outputs in the controller
- Host platform: Use the module with Series One or Series One Plus control hardware.
- Point count: Allocate sixteen output references across the two eight-point banks.
- Load direction: Connect devices that are compatible with a current-sourcing DC output.
- Rack budget: Reserve twenty 9 VDC units of load before installation.
Using the removable terminal board during panel work
- Board access: Terminate field wiring on the face-mounted removable screw block.
- Bank A: Route its eight loads through the first output common.
- Bank B: Keep the second group associated with its own common connection.
- Supply arrangement: Feed both banks together or isolate them with separate compatible DC sources.
Interpreting commanded output status
- Logic indication: Each faceplate LED follows the internal command side of its point.
- Field confirmation: Measure at the terminal when the lamp and load behavior disagree.
- Switch-on timing: Expect a 0.1 ms transition with a resistive load.
- Switch-off timing: Allow as much as 1.0 ms for a resistive circuit to release.
Separating a bank fault from an individual load problem
- Group protection: A 5 A fuse protects each eight-output common line.
- Peak limit: Keep transient voltage within the 40 VDC maximum.
- Off-state path: Account for leakage up to 10 mA at the stated peak voltage.
- Thermal loading: Reduce simultaneous point current as required by the ambient derating curve.
