4.2 Input/Output Functions
The following Input/Output (E/S) functions apply to the 24 VDC E/S connector. There is a
maximum of four inputs and four outputs.
The controller responds to the rising and falling edges of input functions as they are asserted or
removed, not while the levels are high or low. The PARO bit is an exception: it is a true OR
function and does not work off the transition.
The table below lists the available entrada y salida functions, gives a brief description and
indicates the configuration options for each. The configuration options are an important aspect of
the E/S functions as they add multiple dimensions to some functions. These new dimensions allow
integration of these controllers in unique ways and provide some flexibility.
A full description of each function appears in Section 4.2.1.

4.2.1 Input Descriptions
Sourcing Inputs (NPN type)
If Pin-15 is wired to Pin-2 to supply the inputs, then a connection to the 24 V Return must be
applied to assert the input. The return from the load must be wired to Pin-1.
Sinking Inputs (PNP type)
If Pin-1 is wired to Pin-2 to supply the inputs, then a connection to 24 V must be applied to assert
the input. The return from the load must be wired to Pin-15.
Inputs
Description
START
When asserted, the tool will start and run the currently selected job. This input is overridden
by the PARO input. If PARO is used and a tool restart is required, remove the PARO,
remove the START, then re-assert the START. If the tool is required to operate in
Disassembly mode, remove the START, assert the REVERSE input, and then re-assert the
START.
When removed, the tool stops unless the LATCH time has been exceeded.
Configuration:
Latch: This is applicable to external inputs only. This is not applicable to the trigger on
the tool handle.
Yes – when selected causes the START input to latch internally after a time period has
elapsed. This means the physical START input can be removed without stopping the
tool. The tool will run until the currently active Job is complete or times out. A TIME
parameter becomes available to set how long the START input must be applied, in
seconds, before the Latch becomes active.
No – when selected turns the Latch function off.
PARO
When asserted, the controller will stop the tool. It will also keep the tool from running while
it is applied.
When removed nothing will happen other than the tool will be allowed to run.
Configuration: None
