Overload on MC43

Zach Dockter 6 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 6 years ago 3

I have an MC43 using a LS Digital Output on Parker solenoid (1A maybe) but the output shows overload.  I use a MC2 on the exact same solenoid and it works fine.  Anyone know why the MC43 is throwing the error but the MC2 is fine?

GOOD, I'M SATISFIED

Double check the output you are using with the max current rating in the instruction book.  Some of the Low Side outputs are low current (200 - 300 mA), i believe.

Interesting, the MC2 Low Side DO are rated for 2A each whereas the MC43 is limited to 300mA per output on the low side.  Bummer for me.
