Light controller IDMU series

Dimming controller that can input and output trigger signals in both directions

  • Optimized image capture timing Synchronous control of lighting on/off, strobe light emission, and trigger output to the camera
  • Expandability High flexibility, and up to 40 channels available by connecting units
  • Lighting control Lighting ON/OFF controllable by LAN communication
  • Wiring-saving Only one LAN cable can control up to 40 channels
  • Expanded product lineup The number of channels for both base and edge units is available in 4ch and 8ch specifications, and the output voltage is available in 12V and 24V, which can be connected in individual combinations.
  • Programming function Multiple inspection stages can be controlled with a single trigger signal.
  • Space saving DIN rail mounting for control panel integration
  • Interface standards GigE Vision and GenICam (Generic Interface for Cameras) supported
IDMU series

 

Base unit

The basic unit is equipped with LAN communication function as the standard.

It is operated by constant voltage control and outputs using the PWM method.

Model Capacity Channel Number Input Voltage Output Voltage External Control
IDMU-P4B-12 72W 4CH DC24V DC12V LAN Communication
IDMU-P8B-12 144W 8CH DC24V DC12V LAN Communication
IDMU-P4B-24 144W 4CH DC24V DC24V LAN Communication
IDMU-P8B-24 288W 8CH DC24V DC24V LAN Communication

 

Edge Unit

It is an expansion unit that can be connected to the base unit to increase the number of channels. (The edge unit cannot be operated alone.)

It is operated by constant voltage control and outputs using the PWM method.

Model Capacity Channel Number Input Voltage Output Voltage External Control
IDMU-P4E-12 72W 4CH DC24V DC12V Via base unit LAN communication
IDMU-P8E-12 144W 8CH DC24V DC12V Via base unit LAN communication
IDMU-P4E-24 144W 4CH DC24V DC24V Via base unit LAN communication
IDMU-P8E-24 288W 8CH DC24V DC24V Via base unit LAN communication

 

Optional Unit

It is a control unit that can be connected to the base unit and set by manual dimming or parallel I/O.

Model Control Method
IDMU-OP-M Manual dimming
IDMU-OP-PI Parallel communication

Up to 40 channels with free combination

Able to control up to 40ch at once by combining the base unit (4ch / 8ch) with up to 4 edge units (4ch / 8ch).

Able to mix output voltages of 12V DC output and 24V DC output.

Programming Mode

It is able to turn on multiple lights in sequence with a single trigger signal.

The programming function allows you to set not only the order, but also the control of output, emission time, delay time, output pattern, external trigger output control, etc., to perform a variety of operations.

IDMU Product Description 04

External trigger output function allows external synchronization.

It also has a trigger output function in addition to supporting trigger input.

It can synchronize with external devices such as cameras from IDMU.

It can perform image capture and operations in conjunction with lighting connected to the IDMU without preparing an external PLC by combining with the programming function.

IDMU Product Description 05

GenICam support

In addition to conventional control by command, control by GenICam (SFNC v2.4) is also supported.

GenICam support facilitates operation and enables the reduction of restrictions based on the environment platform during installation and operation.

Various other functions are also supported.

  • Lighting ON/OFF control by GenICam control and LAN communication
  • DHCP/LLA support (automatic IP address acquisition function)
  • GigE Vision support
