XYCOM XVME-212 is a digital input module based on the VMEbus (VME64x) architecture. It is primarily used in industrial automation systems for acquiring discrete signals. Below are the key specifications and features of this model:

Basic Specifications

• Number of channels: 32 digital input channels
• Input voltage range: 10 V–50 V DC (compatible with common industrial levels such as 24 V and 12 V)
• Bus standard: VME64x, compatible with standard VME-C and VME-S slots
• Form factor: Single-slot 6U (approx. 120 mm × 90 mm × 30 mm)
• Operating temperature: −40 °C to +85 °C (industrial grade)

Functional Features

• High-speed sampling: Supports high-speed data transfer over VME64x, enabling full status readout of all 32 channels within milliseconds.
• High reliability: Built with industrial-grade components, offering shock resistance up to 30 g and vibration tolerance, suitable for harsh field environments.
• Plug-and-play: Complies with standard VME mechanical and electrical interfaces; once inserted, it can be configured via standard VME I/O drivers on a host computer or PLC without additional hardware.
• Wide compatibility: Operates on various control platforms (such as PC-based VME controllers, PLCs, and embedded systems) and supports common real-time operating systems (RTOS) and industrial protocols.

• Typical Applications
• Status acquisition of discrete sensors on production lines (limit switches, photoelectric sensors)
• Emergency stop and door-lock signal inputs in machine safety systems
• Binary state monitoring in process control (valves, relays)

• Summary
• With its 32-channel wide-range inputs, high-speed communication compliant with the VME64x standard, and industrial-grade reliability, the XYCOM XVME-212 is a widely used module in VME systems that require large-scale discrete signal acquisition.
