External Input/Output Boards

The External Input/Output (XIO) Boards are connected through a network
cable (CAN Link) to the Analog Control Board (ACB). This cable may
be connected to either XIO Link A (J4) or XIO Link B (J5). The XIO
board handles all external Digital Input and Output signals and sends them
to the ACB through the cable. There are 16 Isolated Inputs and 16
Isolated Outputs on the card, and they are used for Runtime I/O including
Start, Stop, Run, Fault, Warning, Jog, and External Reset signals. The
boards also handle the standard drive fault signals (Transformer/Line
Reactor Overtemperature, DC Link Overtemperature, etc.) and several
spare configurable fault inputs. There is an option in software to assign
each XIO a specific function (General IO, External IO or Liquid Cooling).

Figure 4.40 – XIO Board



The standard drive comes with one XIO board; additional boards (up to 5)
can be daisy chained together from XIO Link B (J5) on the first board to
XIO Link A (J4) on the second board, for a total of 6 XIO cards. However,
at this time the drive only supports the use of addresses 1 to 3, depending on
the drive’s features and application. U6 on the XIO board displays the
board’s address which is automatically calculated from the XIO board’s
position in the network.


XIO Link A and B ports are interchangeable but it may make wiring easier
to follow if Link A is used for “upstream”, that is, closest to the ACB, and
Link B is used for “downstream” or farthest from the ACB.
