4 PAMIO Components
4.1 Generality
4.1.1 General specifications
General The Power Automation Modular Input Output (PAMIO) components
are extension modules that allow a Power Automation control unit
to add more PLC digital input/output, PLC and/or NC analog out-
puts, NC analog axes.
PAMIO components are not stand-alone components. They can
only be used in conjunction with a Power Automation control unit.
PAMIO boxes can be snapped onto DIN-rails and plugged side by
side, or connected through optional cables.
Build-In modules
– Power Automation control units are available
with build-in axes and I/O modules.
– Control units with analog axis interface have
one axis module built in.
– One or two I/O modules (depending) on control
unit model are built in every control unit.
Calculation The following formula applies for the calculation of the maximum
configuration of a PAMIO system rack:
12.01.2017 | 25
PA 8000 PAMIO
PAMIO Components
Example 1
If there are only 2416 modules on the PAMIO
rack, the maximum number of I/Os is:
As an example with a control unit PA 8000 LW
with analog axes:
NBuild-In = 3 (one axis module and two I/O modules)
=> Max. number of PAMIO 2416: N2416 = 28
Max. number of digital I/Os:
– 28 x 24 Inputs = 672 inputs + (build-in inputs) =
720 inputs
– 28 x 16 Outputs = 448 outputs + (build-in out-
puts) = 480 inputs
Example 2
If a system rack requires 1 box with 2 modules
4ENC4A and 1 box with 1 module PWM, the
maximum number of modules 2416 is:
N2416 = 31 - NBuild-In - N4ENC4A - NPWM
N2416 = 31 - NBuild-In - 2 - 1
As an example with a control unit PA 8000 E2 with
SDI axes:
NBuild-In = 2 (no axis module and two I/O modules)
=> Max. number of PAMIO 2416: N2416 = 26
Max. number of digital I/Os:
– 26 x 24 Inputs = 624 inputs + (build-in inputs) =
672 inputs
– 26 x 16 Outputs = 416 outputs + (build-in out-
puts) = 448 inputs

PAMIO Combinations The PAMIO boxes are available either in the form of predefined
configuration or as individual components. In case of ordering indi-
vidual components, the customer is responsible for the correct
assembly of these components.

One application may require more than one PAMIO box. The
PAMIO backplanes have 50-pins connectors on each side, a male
connector on the left side (front view) as input and a female con-
nector on the right side as output. Thus it is possible to simply
press two boxes together to establish a full bus connection
between the boxes (Fig. 4).
PAMIO System With Two Racks When the total number of required PAMIO boxes is too big, it can
make sense to create two system racks, connected one to the
other by a Superbus cable (Fig. 5).

In this way the DIN rail fixation screws are placed right in the
middle of the PAMIO boxes (Fig. 11). So, optimum fixation is guar-
anteed and the user can install and/or remove PAMIO boxes
without any problem.

As the boxes are fixed one to the other only by the way of the
plugged connectors, there is always a risk of disconnection (due to
any vibration) that would prevent the entire control unit from
working.
To avoid accidental disconnection of the PAMIO boxes be sure to
fix the entire rack of interconnected boxes with stopping brackets
on each side (Fig. 12). This is always necessary if a system rack
consists of more than one module box plugged into each other.
12.01.2017 | 36
PA 8000 PAMIO
PAMIO Components
The stopping brackets are fixed on the DIN rail with a screw M4x20
(Fig. 14).
When another rail than the one specified is used, the length of the
stopping bracket fixation screw may have to be adapted. However
it has to be selected in such a way that this screw does not collide
with the Superbus connector or the termination plug!
If a rail in accordance with DIN-EN 50022 is used, for example, the
screw must be changed for M4x12.
12.01.2017 | 37

4.2.5 Ventilation
Minimum Vertical Distance To ensure proper heat dissipation, PAMIO system racks must
always be mounted horizontally.
There must be a minimum vertical distance of 100 mm (3.94
inches) between a PAMIO system rack and other devices in the
electrical cabinet (Fig. 15).
It is recommended not to place devices with high power dissipation
(like transformers or drive units) close below the PAMIO system
rack.
When the number of PAMIO boxes is so large that it requires an
assembly of two (or more) system racks, the same rules applies:
there must be a distance of at least 100 mm (3.94 inches) between
the two racks.

Bus Termination (PAMIO 2ENC4A) In the particular case of a PAMIO of model 2ENC4A, there is no
Superbus output connector and the bus termination is integrated in
the module (Fig. 18). It is not possible to use more than one such
module per system rack, and this module must be the last module
of the system rack!
NOTICE!
Be sure that the termination plug is always plugged
in the output connector of the last PAMIO box (or
that the last box is a PAMIO 2ENC4A), and that the
termination plug is fixed against accidental discon-
nection.

Precondition
The distance between the measuring systems and
the power supply can be relatively long. The ohmic
resistance of the power supply cable and the RMS'
current consumption generate a voltage drop.
12.01.2017 | 70
PA 8000 PAMIO
PAMIO Components
Examples The voltage drop depends on the cable length and the conductor's
cross section.
The following table shows some cable examples. The values are
typical and only offered as guidelines.
n For proper compensation, calculate the actual values as shown
in the following section.
Calculation n Use the actual data obtained from the cable's technical
specifications.
n Double the cable's physical length.
This is necessary as there are two lines: one line to the
RMS (+5 V) and one line from the RMS (grounding).
n Calculate the voltage drop as follows:
12.01.2017 | 71

Compensation
Personnel: n Skilled electrician
1. Install a power supply with adjustable output voltage to
supply the RMS supply input.
This is a requirement for voltage drop compensation.
2. Calculate the actual voltage drop between RMS power
supply and RMS.
3. Adjust the external RMS power supply to feed a slight
overvoltage of 5.1 V to 5.5 V depending on the measured
drop.
