8 digital inputs, 24 V
DC
The EP1008 and EP1018 EtherCAT Box modules with digital inputs acquire binary control signals from the
process level, and transfer them, electrically isolated, to the controller.
The status of the signal is displayed by light emitting diodes; the signal connection is made optionally
through M8 connectors (EP1008­0001, EP1018­0001) or M12 connectors (EP1008­0002, EP1018­0002).
These versions have input filters of different speeds.
The sensors are supplied from the control voltage Us. The load voltage Up is not used in the input module,
but may be connected in order to be relayed downstream.
