Model | FS-MC8N | FS-MC8P |
Output | NPN | PNP |
Number of inputs and outputs | Separate control outputs: 8, common output: 1, common input: 1 | |
Response time | Depends on the response time settings of the connected expansion units | |
Unit expansion | Up to 8 expansion units can be connected. (However, each dual output type will be treated as 2 expansion units.) Allowable passing current: 1200 mA or less | |
Indicators | STATUS indicator (green and red two-color display) MEMORY indicator (orange) LOCK indicator (orange) | |
Separate control output, common output |
NPN open-collector, 30 V or less, 20 mA or less per output, residual voltage: 1.4 V or less | PNP open-collector, 30 V or less, 20 mA or less per output, residual voltage: 1.6 V or less |
External input time | Input time of the connected expansion units +11 ms | |
Protection circuit | Protection against reverse power connection, reverse output connection, output overcurrent, and output surge | |
