1. Introduzzjoni
The eletechsup R4IOJ32 is a 32-channel RS485 multi-function IO core board designed for industrial control applications. This compact board supports various input/output (IO) modes, including 32DI, 32DO, 16DI-16DO, 8DI-24DO, and 24DI-8DO, configurable via jumpers. It features Modbus RTU communication, making it suitable for PLC and HMI remote IO expansion. The board allows for flexible configuration of input and output levels (NPN/PNP) through register settings. Its small form factor and 2.54mm pin header interface facilitate easy integration into custom circuit boards and systems.

4. Setup
4.1 Konnessjoni tal-Provvista tal-Enerġija
The R4IOJ32 board supports two power supply options. Only one power supply should be used at a time.
- Provvista tal-Enerġija 1: DC 6-26V (with anti-reverse connection protection). Connect to the 'VIN' and 'GND' terminals.
- Provvista tal-Enerġija 2: DC 4-5.5V (reverse connection prohibited). Connect to the '5V' and 'GND' terminals.
Figure 4.1: Power supply connection points and RS485 port on the R4IOJ32 board. Note the two distinct power input options.
4.2 Konnessjoni tal-Komunikazzjoni RS485
Connect the RS485 A and B lines from your master device (e.g., PLC, HMI) to the corresponding 'A' and 'B' terminals on the R4IOJ32 board. Ensure proper polarity for reliable communication.
4.3 IO Mode Selection
The R4IOJ32 board is a multi-function board, allowing you to select various IO modes (32DI, 32DO, 16DI-16DO, 8DI-24DO, 24DI-8DO) using jumpers M0-M4. These jumpers are typically 0603 0Ω resistors or wire links.
Figure 4.2: Jumper configuration table for selecting different IO function modes. The image shows the soldering patterns for M0-M4 to achieve 32DI, 32DO, 16DI-16DO, 8DI-24DO, and 24DI-8DO.
Refer to the table in Figure 4.2 to configure the desired IO mode by soldering or desoldering the appropriate jumpers (M0, M1, M2, M3, M4).
4.4 Input and Output Level Configuration (NPN/PNP)
The input and output levels (NPN/PNP) can be switched by modifying registers 0X00F5 and 0X00F6 via Modbus RTU commands. The default configuration is NPN input and NPN output.

5. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
5.1 Komunikazzjoni Modbus RTU
The R4IOJ32 communicates using the Modbus RTU protocol over RS485. It supports the following function codes:
- Write Functions: 05 (Write Single Coil), 06 (Write Single Register), 15 (Write Multiple Coils), 16 (Write Multiple Registers)
- Read Functions: 01 (Read Coils), 02 (Read Discrete Inputs), 03 (Read Holding Registers)
The board supports various baud rates and parity settings:
- Rati ta' baud: 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600 (default), 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200 bps
- Parità: Xejn, Fard, Anki
In Modbus command mode, the R4IOJ32 can support up to 247 devices in parallel on the same RS485 bus.
5.2 Input Port Status
The status of the input ports can be queried by the master device (default mode) or configured for automatic reporting, depending on the specific firmware or register settings.
5.3 Abnormal Communication Settings
The board offers configurable behavior in case of abnormal communication:
- By setting register 0X00F3, the board can be configured to restart automatically when communication is abnormal.
- By setting register 0X00F4, all output ports can be configured to close (turn off) when communication is abnormal, providing a fail-safe mechanism.
6. Manutenzjoni
- Tindif: Żomm il-bord nadif u ħieles mit-trab u l-fdalijiet. Uża pinzell artab u niexef jew arja kkompressata għat-tindif. Evita li tuża likwidi jew solventi.
- Ambjent: Operate the board within its specified temperature and humidity ranges. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures, moisture, or corrosive environments.
- Konnessjonijiet: Periodically check all wiring and connections to ensure they are secure and free from damage.
7 Issolvi l-problemi
7.1 Kwistjonijiet Komuni
- Ebda Qawwa: Check power supply connections and voltage. Ensure only one power supply is connected.
- Nuqqas ta' Komunikazzjoni: Verify RS485 A/B line polarity, baud rate, and parity settings. Check for bus termination if necessary. Ensure the Modbus master is correctly configured.
- Incorrect IO Behavior: Review the jumper settings for IO mode selection (Section 4.3). Check the NPN/PNP configuration via registers (Section 4.4).
7.2 Irrisettja l-Fabbrika
To restore the board to its factory default settings, short the 'RES' jumper for approximately 5 seconds. This will reset all configurable parameters to their initial values.
