Maxi Automation Screw Terminals Not Working
-
So I tried this with 24v and it seems to work. However I wish this would be more clear in the documentation since it states it will run off of 12 or 24.
Its kind of a pain I need 24v since my application is only 12v, which means I need to get a converter to step up from 12 to 24 only to trigger my screw terminals.

Hello,
I’m sorry for confusing, but MAXI AUTOMATION works only with 24V. Other types of CONTROLLINOs are working with 12/24V.
It is stated on the printing, also in the pinout diagram.

Documentation also is very odd. It doesnt state that IN0 and IN1 need 24v.
I was hoping to use all screw terminals however my encoder only runs on 5v and IN0 and IN1 do not support 5v.
Can you please update documentation so others dont have the same issues.
I would recommend you state how the screw terminals are expected to be used since I was struggling for a little bit.

Hello,
thank you for feedback, we will do our best to improve it. For 5V encoder interface you can use pins at the pinheader.
