e Digital Output
e STM17 drives feature one optically isolated digital output. is output can be set to automatically con-
trol a motor brake, to signal a fault condition, to indicate when the motor is moving or to provide an output
frequency proportional to motor speed (tach signal). e output can also be turned on and o by program
instructions like Set Output. e output can be used to drive LEDs, relays and the inputs of other electronic
devices like PLCs and counters. e “OUT+” (collector) and “OUT-” (emier) terminals of the transistor are
available at the connector. is allows you to congure the output for current sourcing or sinking.
Note: If current is owing into or out of an output, the logic state of that output is low or closed. If no current is
owing, or the output is not connected, the logic state is high or open.
Do not connect the output to more than 30VDC.
e current through the output terminal must not exceed 40mA.
