NORVI-EX-I16 User Guide

Programming #

NORVI-EX-I16 uses MCP23017 over I2C Communication. The I2C Address of the devices can be configured with the DIP Switches in the bottom of the controller.

Digital Inputs #

Wiring Digital Inputs #

The digital inputs of NORVI Expansions range can be configured as both Sink and Source connection. The inverse of the Digital Input polar should be supplied to common terminal.

Programming Digital Inputs

Reading relevant GPIO of MCP230008 gives the value of the Digital Input. When the inputs are in OFF state the GPIO goes HIGH, and when the input is in ON stage GPIO goes LOW.

Refer to the GPIO Allocation Table for Digital Input GPIO

Refer to the I2C Address setting to set the I2C address of the Expansion
