Key functions and core features
The YASKAWA JANCD-XIO01 I/O board is equipped with advanced signal processing technology and rich functional modules, with core advantages concentrated in four dimensions: signal transmission accuracy, anti-interference ability, adaptability flexibility, and security protection:
1. High precision signal processing and fast response
By using high-speed signal acquisition and processing chips, precise capture and transmission of input and output signals can be achieved. The digital input response time is ≤ 1ms, and the digital output delay is ≤ 0.5ms. It can quickly respond to control instructions from the upper PC and status feedback from on-site devices, ensuring the real-time performance of the control system. For common weak signals in industrial sites, the board has built-in signal amplification and shaping circuits, which can effectively improve signal recognition accuracy and avoid control errors caused by signal attenuation. At the same time, the board supports signal filtering function, which can adjust the filtering time constant (0.1-10ms adjustable) through parameter settings, accurately filtering the signal noise caused by on-site electromagnetic interference, and ensuring the stability of signal transmission.
2. Strong anti-interference and stable operation guarantee
Multiple anti-interference techniques are adopted in the circuit design, and both input and output channels are equipped with optoelectronic isolation modules with an isolation voltage of ≥ 2500VAC, which can effectively isolate the impact of high-voltage signals and electromagnetic interference on the core circuit of the board, avoiding signal crosstalk and board damage. At the same time, the power interface of the board is equipped with anti surge and overvoltage protection circuits, which can resist voltage fluctuations and surge impacts in the industrial power grid, ensuring stable power supply to the board. In addition, the board adopts high-quality electronic components and rigorous PCB wiring design, which further enhances the anti-interference ability and operational stability of the circuit, and can operate stably for a long time in strong electromagnetic environments such as frequency converters and welding machines in industrial sites.
3. Flexible adaptation and expansion functions
It has good compatibility and can directly adapt to Yaskawa YRC1000, DX100 and other series of robot control cabinets and various industrial PC control systems. It seamlessly connects with the upper PC through standard PCI interface without the need for additional adaptation modules. The board supports adaptation to multiple signal types, and the digital input channel can adapt to NPN/PNP sensor signals without the need for manual switching of dip switches, greatly improving installation and debugging efficiency. At the same time, the board reserves expansion interfaces, which can increase the number of input and output channels through expansion modules (up to 64 inputs and 32 outputs), flexibly adapting to the needs of automation control systems of different scales. In addition, the board supports mainstream industrial communication protocols such as Modbus and EtherNet/IP, making it easy to achieve multi module networking control and remote monitoring.
4. Comprehensive security protection and status monitoring functions
To ensure the safety of the control system and on-site equipment, the board is equipped with multiple protection mechanisms, including overcurrent protection, overvoltage protection, short circuit protection, overheating protection, and other types. When a short circuit or overcurrent fault occurs in the output channel, the board will immediately cut off the corresponding channel output and issue an alarm signal; When the temperature of the core circuit of the board exceeds 65 ℃, the overheat protection will be automatically activated, and the board operation will be paused to avoid component damage. In addition, the board is equipped with status indicator LED lights, and each input and output channel corresponds to an independent status indicator light, which can display the working status of the channel in real time (normal, faulty, not triggered). At the same time, the board feedbacks its own working status and fault information to the upper PC through the communication interface, making it easy for operators to quickly troubleshoot faults.

Installation and commissioning specifications
Proper installation and debugging are key to ensuring optimal performance of the YASKAWA JANCD-XIO01 I/O board. The following specifications must be strictly followed, while also complying with the manual requirements of the Yaskawa robot or corresponding control system:
1. Preparation before installation
Before installation, it is necessary to verify whether the board model, specifications, and control system match, check the appearance of the board for any damage during transportation (such as PCB board cracking, component detachment, pin bending, etc.), and confirm that the installation tools (such as screwdrivers, wire clamps, multimeters, anti-static hand rings) and materials (such as shielded cables, wiring terminals, insulation tape) are complete. At the same time, ensure that the installation environment meets the requirements: the ambient temperature range is 0-55 ℃, the relative humidity is ≤ 90% (no condensation), avoid installing in positions with direct sunlight, high dust, corrosive gases, strong electromagnetic interference, and severe vibration, and reserve sufficient heat dissipation space in the installation area to prevent heat accumulation from affecting the performance of the board.
2. Hardware installation and wiring
When installing, it is necessary to wear an anti-static wristband first to avoid static electricity damaging the board components. Insert the board smoothly into the standard PCI slot or dedicated mounting rail of the control system, ensuring that the board is firmly in contact with the slot and installed smoothly without looseness. The wiring process must strictly follow the wiring diagram in the product manual, and the core wiring points include:
-Power wiring: Connect the positive and negative poles of the DC24V power supply to the power interface of the board according to the nameplate identification, ensuring correct polarity; The power circuit needs to be connected to a fuse that meets the specifications (recommended 2A) to prevent overcurrent damage to the board.
-Input/output signal wiring: The input signal cable uses twisted pair shielded wires to connect the sensor signal output end to the corresponding input channel of the board. The shielding layer is grounded at one end (near the board end) to reduce electromagnetic interference; Select the appropriate wire diameter for the output signal cable according to the load type, connect the actuator to the corresponding output channel of the board, ensure that the wiring is firm, and avoid loose connections that may cause poor contact or short circuits. Attention should be paid when wiring, and input/output cables should be kept at a distance of ≥ 15cm from strong electrical lines (such as power lines) to avoid signal interference.
-Communication and grounding wire connection: Connect the board to the upper PC or controller through standard communication cables to ensure a secure communication interface connection; The grounding wire should be a cable with a cross-sectional area of ≥ 2.5mm ² and a grounding resistance of ≤ 4 Ω. Good grounding can effectively suppress electromagnetic interference and ensure stable operation of the board and personnel safety.
Special attention should be paid: all power sources must be cut off during the wiring process, and it is strictly prohibited to plug and unplug boards and wires with power on. Operators must wear personal protective equipment such as insulated gloves to avoid electric shock or static electricity damage to equipment; After the wiring is completed, it is necessary to double check the polarity and channel number of the wiring to ensure that there are no incorrect or reversed connections.
3. Debugging process and parameter settings
Debugging should follow the process of "hardware inspection software configuration signal testing system integration debugging". It is recommended to use Yaskawa official matching debugging software (such as SigmaWin+or corresponding robot control system debugging software) for parameter configuration and testing:
-Hardware status check: After connecting the power supply, observe the power indicator light of the board and the status indicator lights of each channel to confirm that the power indicator light is always on (normal) and the fault free indicator light is on; If a fault alarm occurs, immediately cut off the power and check the power wiring and board installation.
-Software parameter configuration: Connect the software to the board and set core parameters according to the control system requirements, including input signal type (NPN/PNP), filtering time constant, output channel protection mode, communication protocol parameters, etc; After the parameter settings are completed, they need to be saved to the non-volatile memory of the board to prevent power loss.
-Single channel signal testing: Conduct separate tests on each input and output channel. Input channel testing: By triggering the corresponding sensor, observe the signal status displayed by the debugging software and the board input indicator light to confirm that the signal can be accurately collected; Output channel test: Issue output instructions through software, observe the actuator action and board output indicator lights, and confirm that the output signal is normal.
-System integration debugging: Connect the board to the entire control system for full process integration debugging, simulate actual working conditions on site, check whether the signal interaction between the board and the upper PC and on-site equipment is smooth, whether the execution of control instructions is accurate, and whether there is no signal delay, loss or false triggering situation; Based on the joint debugging results, fine tune relevant parameters and optimize system performance.
