D0-01MC | Automation Direct Memory Module

The D0-01MC is a memory module specifically designed for use with the Automation Direct DL05 series of PLCs, offering expanded memory and enhanced functionality to support various industrial control applications. Classified under Controls & Indicators and subcategorized as a CPU/Control Board component, this memory module is an essential accessory for DL05 CPUs, providing additional storage capacity and integrated features to improve the performance and flexibility of the control system.

This memory module comes with a total of 32k V-memory, making it ideal for applications that require extended memory for the storage of programs, data, and configuration parameters. The 32k V-memory enables the user to store a substantial amount of information, which is critical in automation processes that rely on large or complex programs for controlling machinery, sensors, or other industrial equipment. The additional memory ensures that even sophisticated programs with multiple routines and control loops can be accommodated without straining the system's built-in capacity, thus improving the overall functionality of the control system.

An important feature of the D0-01MC memory module is its battery backup capability. The built-in battery backup ensures that critical data and programs stored in the module are retained in the event of a power failure or system shutdown. This feature is crucial in industrial environments where maintaining the integrity of stored data is essential for uninterrupted operations. By preserving programs and settings, the battery backup reduces the risk of data loss, preventing costly downtime or the need for system reconfiguration after power is restored.

Additionally, the D0-01MC is equipped with a real-time clock and calendar. The real-time clock (RTC) allows the PLC system to track time and date accurately, which is particularly useful in applications requiring time-based control, logging, or scheduling of events. The ability to manage time and date information is essential for industries that need to automate processes based on specific time intervals, such as batch processing, maintenance scheduling, or data logging for quality control. The integrated calendar function adds further flexibility, enabling more precise control over operations and ensuring the system can perform tasks according to predefined schedules.

The D0-01MC memory module is designed exclusively for use with DL05 CPUs. This ensures seamless integration with the DL05 series, providing a reliable and straightforward solution for enhancing the capabilities of existing control systems. Since the module is specifically built for the DL05 series, users can easily install and configure it without the need for complex modifications or additional hardware components. The plug-and-play nature of this module allows for quick upgrades to the system’s memory capacity, making it a practical choice for technicians and engineers seeking to expand the functionality of their DL05 PLC systems.

In terms of its design, the D0-01MC memory module is compact and robust, engineered to withstand the demanding conditions of industrial environments. Its durable construction ensures long-term reliability, even in harsh operating conditions where temperature fluctuations, vibration, or electrical noise may be present. The module’s design also aligns with industry standards, ensuring it meets the high-performance requirements expected of industrial automation components.

The D0-01MC offers a cost-effective way to increase the capabilities of DL05 PLC systems, providing both memory expansion and valuable features like battery backup and a real-time clock. These additional features allow the memory module to support more advanced control strategies, ensuring that the PLC system can handle larger and more complex tasks. By offering a larger memory capacity, reliable data retention during power interruptions, and accurate time tracking, the D0-01MC enhances the operational efficiency and flexibility of any industrial control application using the DL05 series.

In summary, the D0-01MC memory module is an essential upgrade for DL05 PLC systems, delivering expanded memory, data retention through battery backup, and time management via a real-time clock and calendar. Its 32k V-memory supports more extensive and complex control programs, while the integrated battery backup ensures critical data is retained during power outages. The module’s real-time clock adds further functionality, enabling time-based control and logging. Designed exclusively for use with DL05 CPUs, the D0-01MC is a reliable and easy-to-install solution for improving the performance and capabilities of industrial automation systems.
