X3: General Purpose I/O
Discrete I/O is available on the Geo Drive. All I/O is electrically isolated from the drive. Outputs can be
configured for sink or source applications. All I/O is 24V nominal operation. Outputs are rated 0.5A
maximum current. Outputs are robust against ESD and overload. All Flag inputs are very fast acting.
X3 General Purpose I/O 24-pin Terminal Blocks
The connector is two 12-pin screw Phoenix terminals.

The Geo MACRO Drive limit and flag circuits also give the flexibility to wire in standard
12V to 24V limits and flags or wire in 5V level limits and flags on a channel basis.
The default is set for the standard 12V to 24V inputs but if the resistor pack is added to the
circuit, the card can read 5V inputs. If RP7 (limits 1) and RP8 (limits 2) are installed in the
unit, the voltage level of the flags can be lowered to 5V.
RP7 and RP8 for 5V: 1Kohm Sip, 8-pin, four independent Resistors
RP7 and RP8 for 12-24V: Empty bank
* For Sinking Outputs, connect the COM EMIT (pin10) line to Common GND (Analog
Ground) and the outputs to the individual collector Output lines, e.g. GP OUT 1 COL.
** For Sourcing Outputs, connect the COM COL (pin9) line to 12-24V and the outputs to
the individual emitter output lines, e.g., GP OUT 1 EMT.
Topologies cannot be mixed, i.e., all sinking or all sourcing outputs. If the common emitter
is used, the common collector should be unconnected. Conversely, if the common collector
is used, the common emitter should be unconnected.
