What is the MCM260X-2AD?
The MCM260X-2AD is a compact, DIN rail–mounted module that provides 16 PNP digital inputs (24 VDC) and supports 0–10 V inputs, converting signals for use on Modbus or CANopen networks.
How many and what type of digital inputs are available?
The device offers 16 PNP digital inputs rated for 24 VDC. Each input channel has an LED indicator for quick status diagnostics.
Does the MCM260X-2AD support analog voltage inputs?
Yes. In addition to the 16 digital inputs, the module supports 0–10 V inputs for voltage-level signal acquisition.
Which communication protocols and speeds are supported?
The MCM260X-2AD operates as a Modbus slave at up to 57,500 baud and as a CANopen device at up to 1 Mbit/sec.
How do I switch between Modbus and CANopen?
Protocol selection is performed via on-board DIP switches—no special tools or software are required to change between Modbus and CANopen.
How is input status indicated?
LEDs on the front panel display the status of each of the sixteen digital inputs, aiding commissioning and troubleshooting.
How is the MCM260X-2AD installed?
The module is small in size and designed for standard DIN rail mounting, enabling high-density installations in control panels.
Where is the MCM260X-2AD typically used?
Common applications include PLC/SCADA expansions, machine I/O marshalling, and distributed control systems requiring protocol flexibility between Modbus and CANopen.
