Installation and User Guide
1. Installation: Mount the module in a well-ventilated control cabinet, away from strong electromagnetic interference, ensuring it is securely fastened. 2. Wiring: Connect to a 24V DC power supply and ensure reliable grounding; connect light sources, analog signals, trigger lines, and communication lines (EtherCAT/RS32) according to labels. Never connect or disconnect while powered. 3. Power-on & Debugging: After verifying wiring, power on the system and configure light intensity, trigger mode, and communication parameters using TwinCAT or a serial terminal. 4. Operation & Maintenance: Once running normally, regularly inspect the power supply, wiring, and environment. Maintain operating temperatures between -10~50°C. Do not plug/unplug or modify the module while powered.
