Features:
- Six eight-channel groups accept the 24 V or 48 V DC contact systems.
- A 33 ms debounce option and separate chatter suppression help condition unstable mechanical contacts.
- Positive, negative or both interrupt edges can be selected for groups of sixteen channels.
This AA execution is the dual-voltage, filtered high-density input card rather than the faster 24 V-only 6DS1601 form.
The module compares each contact level, applies the chosen temporal filter and then transfers the validated state or interrupt event.
Document the voltage and filter choice for every group so maintenance does not trade required noise immunity for an unintended faster response.

- Mechanical limit switches can use the debounce mode to prevent several logical transitions from one physical operation.
- Legacy 48 V signaling circuits can remain in service without external level conversion when grouped correctly.
- Alarm matrices can use chatter suppression to avoid repeated annunciation from unstable field contacts.
- Forty-eight binary input channels provide high-density acquisition of 24 V or 48 V field-contact signals in TELEPERM M automation racks.
- The low-state range extends from -33 V to +4.5 V, allowing inactive and reverse-polarity field levels to be reliably rejected.
- Input voltages from +15 V to +33 V are evaluated as high states for dependable processing of energized field contacts.
- Shared input groups require correct field-voltage selection and common-return wiring to avoid false status indications.
- The typical 3 ms evaluation delay suppresses brief disturbances before a field contact state reaches the process image.
- Cable routing and shielding must prevent induced voltage from crossing the module's defined logical thresholds.
- Six groups of eight channels can be assigned for either 24 V or 48 V contacts to match the installed signal system.
- A selectable 33 ms debounce setting filters unstable mechanical contacts when slower but cleaner state recognition is needed.
- Interrupt operation can be allocated to eight or sixteen channels according to the response priorities in the control program.
