Product Description

Description

Konnect expands the I/O for KFLOP/Kogna by adding 16 optically isolated outputs and 32 optically isolated inputs for high-voltage I/O applications and for situations where there is a potential for spikes in voltage that need to be isolated from KFLOP/Kogna. This makes expansion of KFLOP/Kogna to high-quantity industry-standard 24V optically isolated I/O easy and low cost. Add as many as 4 Konnects for up to 192 channels of I/O.

Outputs are all fully isolated for sinking or sourcing current independently per output channel. Maximum output current of 0.25A permits driving of up to 6W relays, solenoids, or other loads directly. Inputs are grouped into 4 independent banks to allow each bank to be driven from a different source, voltage, or polarity. Each input bank has a separate common that can be used as common anode or common cathode. No configuration or jumpers are required as each input can accept either a positive or negative voltage. LEDs on all 32 inputs and 16 outputs make troubleshooting problems easy. 72 pluggable 5mm pitch screw terminals are included. Simple 16-pin ribbon connection to KFLOP/Kogna provides all required signals and power. High speed deterministic update rate of 180us per board.

The input consists of an AC type of optocoupler in series with an LED indicator and a 4Kohm resistor. The AC type of input allows the common to be connected to either the positive or negative supply voltage so that sinking or sourcing outputs can be used. Each of the 16 outputs is completely isolated with a + and - terminal. When active the output passes current from the + to - terminals much like a relay contact would do. KFLOP/Kogna provides all required signals and power. High speed deterministic update rate of 180us per board.

Please view our on-line documentation for full details.

Kflop - Konnect - Kanalog - Kmotion
My project was a retrofit to a Aciera F5CNC. I removed all electrical and control items and replace the controller with Dynomotion products and couldn't be happier with the results. Look for it on youtube.
Great products, Excellent Support!
Lot's of information and support thru Dynomotion User Groups. Tom is the best!
Looking forward to my next project, Would and have recommend to others.
Thank You for making my project successful!

If anyone gives this product less than a 5, it is because they do not understand the technical aspects of this technology. No manufacturer makes anything even close to the capability and versatility these boards are capable of. Yes they are complex, however the rewards are great too using Dynomotion products. The quality of this product along with support (manuals and Forums) is superb!
I use Kflop, Kstep and Kconnect boards and they are worth every cent.

I bought two KFLOP boards and one KONNECT board, and have received nothing but prompt and outstanding support (not being a C programmer, for example, or using non-standard limit switches, I've needed quite a bit of handholding). The capabilities of the hardware are also tremendous. I couldn't recommend Dynomotion more highly.

We are using KFlop, Kanalog and Konnect while developing a new machine (Electric cabinet milling center)
The boards are designed and manufactured to perfection, and the software allows an exceptional level of customisation.
Special thanks to Tom for the speedy and high quality support

Your products have been instrumental in the development of my own small business, allowing me to use technology to innovate and push boundaries in a way that simply would not have been possible without your company’s products, and the exceptional and timely support from Tom.
I have been using KFlop, KStep, and Konnect boards for over 6 years;chiefly as a cost effective way to replace and upgrade proprietary hardware in an older CNC machine. I have also built an entire new machine for dedicated shell cutting work. This allows me to maintain high quality standards as well as keeping my own proprietary knowledge and techniques all in-house.
