HIMI X-DO1201-985210204 Digital Output Module – Reliable 24 VDC outputs for compact machine control

The HIMI X-DO1201-985210204 is a digital output slice for the HIMI X-series control platform. From my experience, it’s a straightforward way to add stable 24 VDC outputs to an existing rack without growing your cabinet footprint. You might notice that it follows a clean, slim profile typically used in European-style DIN rail systems, which makes it easy to drop into brownfield upgrades or tight OEM panels.
Our Order Placement Process and Guarantees

- Lead time: 1 week if in stock; no more than one month at the latest
- Payment: 50% advance payment; full balance before delivery
- Express delivery: FedEx, UPS, DHL
Key Features
- 12-channel 24 VDC digital outputs – Typically PNP (sourcing) type for direct drive of solenoids, lamps, and contactors via interposing relays.
- LED status per channel – Quick diagnostics during commissioning; you see instantly which points are active.
- Backplane-powered – No external power brick; draws low power from the X-series rack to keep wiring clean.
- DIN-rail, slim form factor – Saves cabinet space; typically fits next to analog and motion slices without interference.
- Industrial temperature rating – Designed for stable operation in control cabinets found on shop floors and process skids.
- Fieldbus-flexible via head module – Works with the X-series controller or network adapter you choose (e.g., Modbus TCP or EtherNet/IP via the head unit).
Technical Specifications
| Brand / Model | HIMI / X-DO1201-985210204 |
| HS Code (reference) | 8538.90 (Parts for boards, panels and other control equipment) |
| Power Requirements | 24 VDC via X-series backplane; module consumption typically ≤ 3 W |
| Digital Outputs | 12 channels, 24 VDC, transistor outputs (sourcing, PNP typical); per-channel current up to 0.5 A typical, total current limited by backplane |
| Signal I/O Termination | Pluggable terminal blocks (2- or 3-wire field connection, screw or spring type depending on batch) |
| Communication Interfaces | Via X-series backplane; fieldbus handled by the selected X-series CPU/adapter (e.g., Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP – depends on head module) |
| Dimensions & Weight | Approx. 115 × 25 × 90 mm; ~0.15 kg (typical slice form factor) |
| Operating Temperature | -10 to +55 °C (typical for cabinet-mounted modules) |
| Isolation & Protection | Channel-to-backplane isolation typical; output short-circuit protection depends on channel grouping (verify per lot) |
| Installation Method | 35 mm DIN rail, within grounded industrial control panel (EN 60204 environment) |
Application Fields
This module fits best where deterministic on/off control and compact layouts matter.
- Packaging and bottling lines – driving pneumatic valves, stack lights, and diverters.
- Material handling – controlling small DC actuators, brakes, and sensors via interposing relays.
- HVAC skids and utilities – reliable DO to contactor coils and solenoid valves.
- Process skids – on/off dosing valves where quick diagnostics is needed.
A packaging OEM told us the channel LEDs saved them hours during FAT; they could verify interlocks at a glance without hooking a meter to every terminal. That’s a small detail that, in many cases, speeds up commissioning.
Advantages & Value
- Compatibility – Built for the HIMI X-series rack; integrates with your chosen head module and controller without custom wiring.
- Reduced cabinet footprint – Slim slice keeps enclosures smaller, which typically means lower panel costs.
- Fewer spare parts – Common terminal style across the X-series reduces stocking complexity.
- Procurement clarity – Clear labeling and per-channel indicators make QC and inbound inspection faster.
- Support – We assist with selection and quick replacement options to minimize downtime.
Installation & Maintenance
- Mount on 35 mm DIN rail inside a grounded, ventilated cabinet. Keep ambient within -10 to +55 °C and avoid direct vibration near motors.
- Provide clean 24 VDC power. Separate high-voltage lines from signal wiring; use proper ferrules and labeling.
- Observe output current limits per channel and per module; group inductive loads with flyback diodes or surge suppressors.
- Routine checks: tighten terminals quarterly, dust off with dry air, and review firmware/parameter settings via the head unit when applicable.
- Lock the terminal block after wiring and verify LED status during I/O mapping to catch miswires quickly.
Quality & Certifications
- CE and RoHS compliant (typical for X-series modules); UL/cUL availability can vary by batch – we confirm before shipment.
- Manufacturer warranty: 12 months (365 days).
- Production and QC aligned with ISO-style process controls used for industrial control assemblies.
Suggested Supporting Components
For a clean setup, users typically pair the X-DO1201-985210204 with:
- HIMI X-series head/adapter module – selects your fieldbus (e.g., Modbus TCP or EtherNet/IP depending on model).
- 24 VDC power supply with sufficient inrush margin for inductive loads.
- Interposing relays or solid-state relays for high-inrush or AC loads.
- Labeled pluggable terminal blocks and end-stops for tidy wiring and serviceability.
Note: Specific current ratings, connector styles, and isolation figures can vary slightly by production lot. If you’re driving heavy inductive loads or need sinking (NPN) outputs instead of sourcing (PNP), let us know and we’ll verify the exact variant before you place an order.
