EXTERNAL MODULES
External Modules offer expansion capabilities for
items that are not available in the Driver Pack
and are for additional items such as additional
Inputs, Thumbwheel Switch Modules and Remote
Panel Mount Terminal. ( Purchased Separately )
The SMC40M-24I is an expansion module for the SMC40 Programmable Indexer series. Each SMC40M-
24I module adds 24 more inputs to the SMC40 - up to three SMC40M-24I modules can be daisy chained
for a total of 96 inputs. The expansion modules are simply connected to the SMC40 through a standard
telephone handset cable(on JP2) - no external power supply required. JP1 is the Input socket and JP2 is
the Output socket for the next module. All 24 inputs are TTL/CMOS compatible and are easily accessible
through two detachable terminal blocks. Or using
the 50 pin header connector, the input cable can be connected to an Opto22® board for opto-isolation.
Using the Windows based “Intelligent Indexer” utility (that comes with the SMC40), the additional inputs
are easily incorporated into SMC40 programs. The SMC40M-24I provides the SMC40 Programmable
Indexer a versatile way of dealing with additional inputs for complex automated systems.
