Supported Modbus Devices
The following Modbus devices are currently available:
-
WP8025ADAM
-
WP8026ADAM
-
WP8027ADAM
-
WP8028ADAM
-
WP9038ADAM
The devices differ in the number of digital or analog inputs/outputs. Below is a table with the description for the Modbus devices currently sold through the myCNC shop:
Device | Description |
---|---|
WP8028ADAM | 8 digital inputs, 8 digital outputs |
WP8027ADAM | 16 digital outputs, 0 inputs (write-only) |
WP8026ADAM | 16 digital inputs, 0 outputs (read-only) |
WP8025ADAM | 8 relay outputs (normally open) |
WP9038ADAM | 6 analog inputs, 4 digital inputs, 4 digital outputs. The digital inputs/outputs work similarly to the WP8028 |

The devices can be used by plugging them into the controller directly, and using the Hardware PLC / Config settings to control, or by plugging them into the host computer using a USB cable provided in the kit. The setup and the configuration dialogs are described in the PLC/Modbus API and Host Modbus API manuals.
