GE+VMIVME-4140

Description

The GE VMIVME-4140 Module is an industrial I/O (Input/Output) module designed for the VMEbus system architecture. It comes in two variants:

• GE VMIVME-4140 Digital I/O Module: This variant provides functionalities for digital input and output signals.
• GE VMIVME-4140 Analog Output Module: This variant focuses on analog output signal processing.

Product Name: GE VMIVME-4140 (Digital I/O or Analog Output Module)

Product Description:

The specific functionalities depend on the module variant:

• Digital I/O Module:

  • Provides interfaces for the VMEbus system to acquire digital on/off signals from sensors and switches (inputs).
  • Allows the VMEbus system to control various digital devices like relays and solenoids (outputs) based on the control program.
  • Offers a configurable number of digital input and output channels (typically 16).

• Analog Output Module:

  • Provides high-quality analog voltage or current outputs for controlling various analog devices like valves, motors (with additional drivers), and actuators within the automation system.
  • Offers a configurable number of analog output channels (typically 16 or 32).
  • Features software-selectable voltage or current ranges and high resolution (typically 12-bit) for precise control of analog devices.

Key Features (may vary depending on the variant):

• Number of channels: Typically offers 16 or 32 channels (depending on the variant).
• Digital I/O (if applicable): Provides sink/source configuration for digital inputs/outputs for compatibility with various sensor and device types. LED status indicators for each channel to visually represent the state of digital signals.
• Analog Output (if applicable): Offers software-selectable voltage or current ranges (e.g., 0-10V or 4-20mA). High resolution (e.g., 12-bit) for precise analog signal generation. Calibration capabilities to ensure accurate output signal levels.

Additional Information:

• The specific functionalities, number of channels, and configuration options might depend on the model revision of the VMIVME-4140 module (Digital I/O or Analog Output).
