Light source LED

Transmitter side: Red, four-element LED (wavelength: 660 nm)

Control output

Open-collector, 30 V or less 100 mA or less per output,
100 mA or less total for 2 outputs (when used as a solitary unit) /20 mA or less (when used as an expansion unit)
Residual voltage: 1.4 V or less (output current: 10 mA or less) /2 V or less (output current: 10 to 100 mA)

External input

Input time: 2 ms (ON) /20 ms (OFF) or longer^*3

Unit expansion

Up to 16 units (17 units connected in total including the main unit) . However, each dual output type will be treated as two expansion units.
