Advantech ADAM-4056SO | Isolated Modbus RTU Output Module

The Advantech ADAM-4056SO is a compact remote I/O module designed to provide 12 source type digital output channels for distributed industrial control applications. Each channel supports a 10 to 35 VDC supply range and up to 1 A of current, allowing the module to control compatible DC devices such as relays, solenoids, indicators, and other field loads. ASCII command and Modbus RTU protocol support enable straightforward communication with PLCs, industrial PCs, SCADA systems, and other RS-485 based controllers.

The ADAM-4056SO incorporates 5,000 VDC isolation to help protect communication equipment and control systems from electrical disturbances in field wiring. Built in overcurrent detection and protection help safeguard the digital output channels during fault conditions. The module also includes system and communication watchdog timers, LED indicators for local status monitoring, and plug in terminal blocks for convenient field wiring. It operates from an unregulated 10 to 30 VDC power input and is designed for industrial environments with operating temperatures from -10 to 70°C.

ADAM-4056SO Source Digital Output Control Features

  1. Twelve Source Type Digital Output Channels
    The ADAM-4056SO provides 12 isolated source type digital outputs for controlling compatible DC field devices from a remote RS-485 I/O network.

  2. Up To 1 A Output Current Per Channel
