Description
The FP-DO-400 Discrete Output Module, part number 184436B-01 (777518-400), is categorized under FieldPoint by National Instruments. This module is designed for use with a FieldPoint terminal base (FP-TB-x) and is not recommended for new designs. The FP-DO-400 operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 70°C and offers 8 digital output channels, each with individual LED indicators to signal operation.
It features two green status LEDs for POWER and READY indications, ensuring clear visibility of the module’s status. This module is compatible with voltages ranging from 5 to 30 VDC, making it versatile for various applications, including CMOS and TTL devices, external relays, and indicator lights.
Among its key features are easy installation, trouble-free maintenance, onboard diagnostics, and the ability to perform hot swapping (HotPnP), which allows for module replacement without powering down the system. Additionally, users can configure startup states according to their specific requirements. The FP-DO-400 also provides optical isolation from the remainder of the FieldPoint bank, enhancing its safety and reliability.
The module supports sourcing outputs with a maximum load of 1.5 A per channel and a maximum total load of 8 A squared. This level of performance and flexibility makes the FP-DO-400 a valuable component for various industrial applications, despite its recommendation against new design incorporations.
