EL1508CM Application Field and Working Principle

Introduction

EL1508CM is a kind of interface transmitter-receiver produced by OMRON Company. It is suitable for electrical connection between a host computer and its peripheral devices, like printers, storage medium and motors. This product can be widely used in many industrial control fields, such as PLC control, automatic test systems, robot control and automatic monitoring systems.

Application Cases

OMRON EL1508CM can be applied to different industrial control and automation systems. In PLC control engineering, it can be used as the communications between PLC and the external equipment. In automatic test systems, it can be used to control the equipment to test the property of the samples in labs. In robot control, it can be used as the connection between the main control unit and the operating robots. Meanwhile, in automatic monitoring systems, EL1508CM can be used to detect the data of the monitored devices.

Working Principle

OMRON EL1508CM is a kind of interface device based on transmitting and receiving technology. Through the “Two-Way 0-10V Interface”, it can both send and receive digital signals to and from the main control unit. Especially, it’s made up of one transmitter and one receiver, and each transmitter can control two groups of receivers respectively.

The transmitter can receive the command from the main control unit, and then transmit it to the receiver as the 0~10V analog signal. Then, the receiver will receive the 0~10V analog signal and transform it into the digital signal. After receiving the digital signal, the receiver will send it to the main control unit or the external equipment for further processing.

This kind of interface device has the advantages of high speed, high accuracy and long stability. Moreover, it communicates with the main control unit without any additional chips or program storing, and the interface is safe and easy to use.

Conclusion

To sum up, OMRON EL1508CM is a kind of interface, driver, receiver and transceiver all in one, which has the advantages of high speed, high accuracy and long stability. It can be widely used in many industrial control fields, such as PLC control, automatic test systems, robot control and automatic monitoring systems.
