System Architecture & Signal Flow
The BMXDDO3202K slots directly into any available I/O slot on a Modicon M340 rack (BMX XBP series). The module communicates with the CPU via the internal X-Bus backplane, with zero additional configuration hardware required. Field wiring connects via dual HE10 connectors (16 channels per connector), supporting both direct terminal block wiring and Telefast pre-wired harness systems.
Signal Flow: CPU Logic → X-Bus Backplane → BMXDDO3202K Internal Logic → Optical Isolator → Transistor Output Driver → Field Device (solenoid / relay / indicator)
Each output channel is individually addressable in the Unity Pro I/O map and supports forced output diagnostics for commissioning and maintenance workflows.

Technical FAQ
Q: Is the BMXDDO3202K compatible with Modicon Quantum or Premium racks?
A: No. The BMXDDO3202K is exclusively designed for the Modicon M340 X-Bus backplane and is not compatible with Quantum (S908 bus) or Premium (Fipio/X-Bus Premium) racks.
Q: Can this module drive relay coils directly?
A: Yes, provided the relay coil current does not exceed 0.5A per channel and 4A per 8-channel group. For higher-current loads, an interposing relay or solid-state relay is recommended.
Q: What is the output response time?
A: Typical output ON/OFF response time is <1ms, ensuring deterministic control for high-speed machine applications.
Q: Does the module support diagnostics?
A: Yes. Per-channel short-circuit and overload diagnostics are reported to the CPU and accessible in Unity Pro / EcoStruxure Machine Expert for real-time fault identification.
Q: Is a Telefast wiring sub-base required?
A: No. Direct HE10 connector wiring is supported. Telefast ABE-7 sub-bases are optional accessories that simplify field wiring and reduce commissioning time.
Q: What certifications does the BMXDDO3202K carry?
A: CE (European conformity), UL/cUL (North American safety), and IEC 61131-2 (international PLC I/O standard).
