The Y module adds three analog output channels to an MPA Series controller. Each channel's DIP switch and MP STUDIO function block determine the output range. Y and K modules can provide up to 12 output channels in total.
| DIP switch | Function block | V+ terminal | I+ terminal |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON | DAC | DC 0–5 V | DC 0–10 mA |
| ON | DAC2 | DC 1–5 V | DC 2–10 mA |
| OFF | DAC | DC 0–10 V | DC 0–20 mA |
| OFF | DAC2 | DC 2–10 V | DC 4–20 mA |
Use V+ for voltage or I+ for current. The negative terminal is connected internally to GND. Match the DIP switch setting to the input type of the connected equipment.
With CH0's DIP switch OFF, DAC minimum 0, maximum 100, and output value 10, the V+ terminal outputs approximately 1 V. In MP STUDIO, press [ to insert DAC, then set the channel and value range.
V+ and current inputs to I+ after checking the receiving device's input specification.DAC and DAC2 have different zero points. For 4–20 mA, use DIP OFF with DAC2.
