Issue
What does it mean when a TAC controller is said to have a Universal Input?
Product Line
TAC VistaEnvironment
- Xenta Programmable Controllers
- Xenta I/O modules
Cause
The term “Universal” is commonly interpreted to mean compatibility with all types of inputs. However, this definition does not accurately apply to TAC Xenta controllers.
Resolution
In the context of TAC Xenta controllers, the term “Universal Input” refers to compatibility with multiple types of input signals, but not necessarily all types.
Key clarification:
It is essential for project planners and system designers to consult the specific device’s datasheet to understand the exact definition of “Universal” as it applies to the particular TAC Xenta model in use.
This ensures proper configuration and avoids misinterpretation during system design and implementation.
