NGM EVO USER GUIDE CAN BUS Port The port CAN BUS allows the communication of the card NGMEVO with type devices for motors drives, slave of various kinds, encoders, and more. Communication takes place via the CAN OPEN protocol, based on its specifications DS401 and DS402 as regards the objects and the modes supported.
10 BaseT and 100 BaseT standards. About protocols, it can be used in many ways: NGMEVO to PC communication, about on-line assistance. In this case it's used a PROMAX specific protocol; PLC and other devices communication, with ModBus TCP/IP protocol;...

NGM EVO USER GUIDE Analog inputs The analog converter reads an input voltage from 0 to 10V or 4/20 mA with respect to GND. To get the full scale 12V or 24V, an external resistor must be inserted between the signal and card input. In any case, the value of the input voltage can exceed the full scale is not more than 0.2 V.

NGM EVO USER GUIDE Digital Inputs All these signals are PNP Type optically isolated. Therefore, to enable an input must bring a positive VDC (24 Vdc typical) on the desired channel refers to the common inputs. 4.9.1 Electric characteristics U.m.
NGM EVO USER GUIDE 4.10 Digital Outputs These outputs are optically isolated with respect to GND. In order to function should therefore feed them separately with a voltage of 24 Vdc. The load is driven by a transistor of the PNP type which when activated will provide a positive voltage equal to the voltage supply of the outputs.
The board NGMEVO is automatically in BOOT MODE (if is not available, see 5.1) when you use the BUTTON UPLOAD APPLICATION. The application is automatically RUN when the transfer is finish.
