The NET-DEV-REL16_3/5A module has 16 digital outputs and is available with 3A or 5A switching capacity. It serves as an extension possibility for the NET-CPU basic modules and is integrated into an existing NET system by means of Plug’n Play plug connection (DIN Rail-Bus).

Digital outputs
Relay 3A / 5A
Power relays with normally open (NO) function are used as digital output. They are suitable for switching capacities up to 5A and have a life time of up to 10 million switching cycles. The galvanic separation between input and output circuit is up to 3kV.
Timeout-protection-function [Single channel adjustable new feature since Q4/2020!]
If communication with the DEDITEC module is interrupted in a timeout case, the timeout protection function takes effect. It can be set for each digital output whether it is to be “switched off”, “switched on” or left unchanged. Motors can thus be switched off in a timeout case, for example, and connected horns or other alarm transmitters can be switched on.
New timeout modes [New feature since 2021/Q3!]
3 different timeout modes: “normal”, “auto reactive” and “secure outputs” for different procedures in case of a timeout event.
In “secure outputs” timeout mode, access to the outputs is blocked after a timeout event, thus preventing further access to the outputs.
Unlocking must be done by an additional software command.
Timer Function
All digital outputs of the NET series have a timer function. This allows the outputs to be switched on and off automatically for a freely definable period of time. Even if the connection to the control PC is interrupted.
Easy installation thanks to DIN rail bus
Thanks to the practical NET-Bus connector, which is clipped into the top-hat rail, individual modules of a system can be added or exchanged very easily. This Plug’n Play principle makes commissioning easier and eliminates the need for tiresome wiring.
LEDs
On the front side of our NET modules there are a number of status LEDs. These give you a quick overview of the most important functions of the modules, such as the switching states of the individual I/Os, module status or whether clean communication via the DIN rail bus is possible. This can be very helpful for fast error analysis, especially for field applications.
Connectors
A screwless system from the manufacturer WAGO Kontakttechnik is used as the connector. The 1-wire female connectors are 100% protected against mismating and have an eject and locking mechanism. All conductor types up to 1.5mm² can be connected.
