4. Operating Principle
When Used as a Counter Board
DSDP140B works with encoders and digital input modules to detect the actual value of the motor position encoder, thereby achieving precise position control and start-up control. For example, in a flying shear control system, an incremental encoder on the motor shaft is used for shear blade position feedback. DSDP140B detects the pulse signal from the encoder and controls the motor’s set value based on the actual shear blade position, ultimately regulating the motor’s speed and position.
When Used as a Dual-Channel Digital Output Module
Through its two independent output channels, DSDP140B outputs different states (normally open, normally closed, pulse) according to control signals to control connected switching devices—realizing operations such as device on/off and start/stop. During the output process, short-circuit protection and overload protection functions ensure the safe operation of both the equipment and the module.
