Resolution of PWM output

Noah Breece 8 years ago updated 8 years ago 3

Hi!


When monitoring the output of the PWM it shows only values with no decimals although the input is with decimals. I have attached an example. Is it true that the resolution of the PWM output is discrete values?

why PWM instead of COUT?

Forrest 8 years ago updated by Jim Janecke 7 years ago 10

I am planning to drive a proportional relief valve (AP04G2YR 21C) with a XA2.

Is there any reason to use a PWM output over a COUT?

With COUT, I would think I would have open and short circuit detection (not sure about PWM) and it would take into account the coil heating up over time.

Ground triggered digital input

Keith Boone 8 years ago updated by Ulrik Zakariasson (Software development) 8 years ago 4

Is there a way to configure an XA2 expansion module's digital input to accept a ground triggered signal without adding external resistors? I have an application that requires a grounded input instead of a positive voltage.

Reason for not using diode protection on COUT's?

Kevin 8 years ago in Master modules updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 8 years ago 1

What is the reason for not being able to use diode protection on COUT's? The manual for the MC3 for example states 'Do not install diodes across the coils', just wondering why this is noted, is there a specific reason?


Also there are a selection of other methods of suppression, resistors etc. Can resistors be used? In terms of diode suppression, is the TVS diode not to be installed in the same way as say a standard diode is not to be used?

IQAN-XC10 max output current exceeded

What happens if I try to drive a load that is greater than 2.5amps with the HS output of a XC-10?

CAN Communication Distance

Joe 8 years ago updated by Codie 3 years ago 15

What is the maximum distance that the IQAN bus can transmit (in terms of cable length)? I can't find it in the documentation and I have a project that requires a display to be away from a hazardous area.

G11 Socket error 60

Greg Landon 8 years ago in Gateways / G11/G12 updated by Ulrik Zakariasson (Software development) 8 years ago 2

Using IQAN sync, we connect to the G11 through blue tooth and then receive a Socket Error#60. Any ideas? Looks like the phone is connected to the machine through blue tooth but is not establishing an internet connection (no green light). This was after asked us to update the firmware in the G11. Any ideas?

Does the MC43 have a Real Time Clock? Does it need one?

Ethernet Communication Port

Chris Prestley 8 years ago in Master modules / MC4x updated by ham m 4 years ago 4

With the new MC42 and MC43 master modules, I see you have the ability to communicate via Ethernet communication port. Where can I find this part? Image 617
