Digital I/O

You can check the status of digital I/O available on the IF-A series using Epson Feeder Configurator. For detailed specifications of the digital I/O, refer to the following.
Use in Combination with a PLC

Digital I/O is primarily controlled by devices such as PLCs that control I/O ports. Because it operates via I/O ports rather than being controlled by commands such as Ethernet, it offers intuitive control and reduced latency. However, debugging port control is not directly visible. This function allows you to check the status.

The digital I/O function not only allows you to check the input/output but also records it in a log file. Using the log file makes debugging easier.
