5464-653 Overview

The NETCON 5000B SIO5466-348 Woodward is a Netcon SIO module with three RS-485 ports, operating at 417 kbaud. It supports communication with EM or GS/LQ digital actuator drivers, cycling one driver per port every 5 ms. This module is made in the USA and is currently in stock.

Technical Data Summary

• Provides 5 ms update rate for critical parameters with a dedicated driver per port.

• Interfaces directly with Digital Actuator Drivers via RS-485.

• Each RS-485 port operates independently at a configurable rate group.

• Detects communication faults per driver and automatically disables affected drivers.

• Enables remote monitoring of driver operating parameters.

• Supports remote configuration of driver parameters.

• Delivers fast and high-accuracy 16-bit position commands without signal noise.

Application

Can transmit position commands and configuration data to the driver while simultaneously monitoring driver status outputs.

Allows driver configuration and status monitoring, but does not send position commands; position demand is provided via 4–20 mA input or CAN bus interface.

Supports monitoring of driver status outputs, without configuration or position command capability; position demand is supplied via 4–20 mA input or CAN bus, and configuration is set via RS-232 or CAN bus interface.
