Number of Input and Output Lines

The number of direct (built-in) inputs and outputs varies per In-Sight vision system, as follows.

In-Sight Vision Systems Direct (built-in) Inputs Direct (built-in) Outputs
In-Sight Micro 1000 series None

2 high-speed outputs
2 user-configurable LEDs (1 green, 1 red)
In-Sight 2000 series 1 general-purpose input

4 high-speed outputs
2 user-configurable LEDs (1 green or red, 1 yellow)
In-Sight 5000 series None

2 high-speed outputs
2 user-configurable LEDs (1 green, 1 red)
In-Sight 70xx - 74xx series 3 general-purpose inputs

4 high-speed outputs
2 user-configurable LEDs (1 green, 1 red)
In-Sight 7000 Gen2 series Up to 3 general-purpose inputs

Up to 4 high-speed outputs
2 user-configurable LEDs (1 green or red, 1 red)
In-Sight 8000 series None

2 high-speed outputs
2 user-configurable LEDs (1 green, 1 red)
In-Sight 9902L 1 general-purpose input 2 high-speed outputs
2 user-configurable LEDs (1 green or red, 1 red)
In-Sight 9912 Up to 3 general-purpose inputs

Up to 4 high-speed outputs
2 user-configurable LEDs (1 green or red, 1 red)
Note:
  • In-Sight vision systems have one dedicated acquisition trigger input on the vision system. For more information, refer to the vision system installation manual or reference guide, included with In-Sight Explorer software.
  • When connected to the Breakout cable, the In-Sight 7000 Gen2 series and 9912 vision systems support bi-directional high-speed outputs and general-purpose inputs for HSOUT 2 / IN 2 and HSOUT 3 / IN 3. These lines are configured as outputs by default.

An I/O module can be used to provide additional discrete inputs and outputs. The number of discrete inputs and outputs varies per applicable I/O module, as follows.

I/O Modules Supported In-Sight Vision Systems Discrete Input Lines Discrete Output Lines
CIO-1400 In-Sight 2000 series, In-Sight 5000 series (except 5604), In-Sight 7000 Gen2 series, In-Sight 9000 series 7 general-purpose inputs 6 general-purpose outputs
CIO-MICRO In-Sight Micro 1000 series, In-Sight 5000 series, In-Sight 70xx - 79xx series, In-Sight 8000 series, In-Sight 9000 series 8 general-purpose inputs 8 general-purpose outputs
CIO-MICRO-CC In-Sight Micro 1000 series, In-Sight 5000 series (except 5705, 5705C and 5715), In-Sight 70xx - 74xx series 8 general-purpose inputs 8 general-purpose outputs
CIO-1450 In-Sight 5000 series (except 5604, 5705, 5705C and 5715) 8 general-purpose inputs 8 general-purpose outputs
CIO-1460 In-Sight 5000 series (except 5604, 5605, 5705, 5705C and 5715) 8 general-purpose inputs 8 general-purpose outputs
CIO-WENET In-Sight Micro 1000 series 8 general-purpose inputs 8 general-purpose outputs
Note:
  • The CIO-1400 I/O module supports In-Sight 2000 series vision sensors with firmware version 5.3.0 and higher.
  • The CIO-1400 I/O module supports the In-Sight 7000 Gen2 series vision system using In-Sight Explorer 5.4.0 and higher. If you log onto the vision system using an earlier version of In-Sight Explorer, connect to the CIO-1400 I/O module and configure the I/O lines, the changes will not be retained.
  • The CIO-MICRO I/O module supports In-Sight 5705, 5705C, 5715 and In-Sight 8000 series vision systems with firmware version 5.3.0 and higher.
  • The CIO-MICRO & CIO-MICRO-CC I/O modules support In-Sight 5100 series and 5400 series vision systems with 128MB non-volatile flash memory or higher. Models can be identified by the Type number (821-xxxx-xx). The Type number is located on the label affixed to the vision system.
  • The CIO-1450, CIO-1460 and CIO-WENET I/O modules are obsolete and no longer available for purchase, however these modules are still supported within In-Sight Explorer for backward compatibility only.
