Crestron DIN-IO8 DIN Rail Versiport Module Crestron Green Light™ DIN Rail Versiport Module: DIN-IO8 Introduction The DIN-IO8 is a DIN rail-mounted automation control module that provides eight Versiport I/O ports for interfacing with a wide range of third-party devices and systems. Each “Versiport” can be configured via software to function as a digital or analog sensing input, or as a digital trigger output.
DIN Rail Versiport Module Crestron DIN-IO8 digital output, the Versiport provides a logic level closure signal to trigger control and alarm inputs on a variety of external devices. DIN Rail Installation The DIN-IO8 is designed to snap onto a standard DIN rail for installation in a wall mount enclosure or mounted on a wall panel. Wiring connections are made using detachable screw terminals positioned along the top and bottom, clearly accessible from the front for easy installation and servicing.

DIN Rail Versiport Module Crestron DIN-IO8 Setup Network Wiring When wiring the Cresnet network, consider the following: • Use Crestron Certified Wire. NOTE: Cresnet-HP wire cannot be used. • Use Crestron power supplies for Crestron equipment. • Provide sufficient power to the system. CAUTION: Insufficient power can lead to unpredictable results or damage to the equipment. Please use the Crestron Power Calculator to help calculate how much power is needed for the system (www.crestron.com/calculators).
Crestron DIN-IO8 DIN Rail Versiport Module • When the desired Net ID is displayed, press the SETUP button to exit the Setup mode. The SETUP LED extinguishes. NOTE: If an invalid Net ID is set (00, 02, FF), “Er” will be displayed on the NET ID display. The DIN-IO8 reverts to the previously set Net ID. NOTE: The DIN-IO8 will leave the Setup mode after 10 seconds of inactivity. The DIN-IO8 will revert to the previously set Net ID.
DIN Rail Versiport Module Crestron DIN-IO8 The DIN-IO8 is designed for installation on a DIN rail. Refer to the following diagram when installing. Installing the DIN-IO8 DIN-IO8 TOP DIN RAIL (NOT SUPPLIED) DIN RAIL RELEASE 1. Place the top of the DIN-IO8’s rail mount over the top of the DIN rail. 2. Tilt the bottom of the DIN-IO8 toward the DIN rail until it snaps into place.
Crestron DIN-IO8 DIN Rail Versiport Module Hardware Hookup Connect the Device Make the necessary connections as called out in the illustration that follows this paragraph. Refer to “Network Wiring” on page 10 before attaching the 4-position terminal block connector. Apply power after all connections have been made. WARNING: Prior to connecting the device, turn off power at the circuit breaker. Failure to do so may result in serious personal injury or damage to the device.

Crestron DIN-IO8 DIN Rail Versiport Module Uploading and Upgrading Crestron recommends using the latest programming software and that each device contains the latest firmware to take advantage of the most recently released features. However, before attempting to upload or upgrade it is necessary to establish communication. Once communication has been established, files (for example, programs or firmware) can be transferred to the control system (and/or device).
DIN Rail Versiport Module Crestron DIN-IO8 Programs and Firmware Program or firmware files may be distributed from programmers to installers or from Crestron to dealers. Firmware upgrades are available from the Crestron website as new features are developed after product releases. One has the option to upload programs via the programming software or to upload and upgrade via the Crestron Toolbox.
Crestron DIN-IO8 DIN Rail Versiport Module Operation Net ID Use the NET ID buttons to change the Net ID of the DIN-IO8. For more information on Net ID, refer to “Identity Code” on page 10. Reset To reboot the DIN-IO8, press the RESET button. The ports function as specified by the control system program.

DIN Rail Versiport Module Crestron DIN-IO8 Problem Solving Troubleshooting The following table provides corrective action for possible trouble situations. If further assistance is required, please contact a Crestron customer service representative. DIN-IO8 Troubleshooting TROUBLE POSSIBLE CAUSE(S) CORRECTIVE ACTION Device does not function. Device is not communicating with the network. Use Crestron Toolbox to poll the network. Verify network connection to the device. Use a Crestron power source.
Crestron DIN-IO8 DIN Rail Versiport Module DIN-IO8 Troubleshooting (Continued) TROUBLE POSSIBLE CAUSE(S) Input/Output port Incorrect pull-up not responding resistor setting. as expected. CORRECTIVE ACTION Verify pull-up resistor setting in SIMPL Windows program. Check Network Wiring Use the Right Wire Calculate Power In order to ensure optimum performance over the full range of your installation topology, Crestron Certified Wire and only Crestron Certified Wire may be used.
DIN Rail Versiport Module Crestron DIN-IO8 Cable Length Equation 40,000 L< RxP Where: L = Length of run (or chain) in feet 2 R = 6 Ohms (Crestron Certified Wire : 0.75 MM (18 AWG)) P = Cresnet power usage of entire run (or chain ) Make sure the cable length value is less than the value calculated on the right side of the equation. For example, a Cresnet run using 0.75mm2 (18 AWG) Crestron Certified Wire and drawing 20 watts should not have a length of run more than 101 meters (333 feet).
