1. Overview
The Y301-440/444 family provides Modbus-RTU serial I/O expansion in two enclosure sizes:
| Model | DI | DO | AI | Typical Role |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Y301-440 | 4 | 4 (SPDT) | – | Multi-zone digital automation |
| Y301-444 | 4 | 4 (SPDT) | 4 (0–10V / 4–20 mA) | Analog-driven process control |
Positioning Highlights
- Shared Modbus-RTU firmware with RS485/RS232/TTL connectivity
- DIN rail or screw mounting with power, DI, DO LEDs on the front panel
- Y301-444 adds four analog inputs plus enlarged enclosure (145 × 90 × 40 mm)
- Y301-440 keeps compact 115 × 90 × 40 mm footprint for pure digital control

5.2 Wiring Guidance
- Use 22–16 AWG power leads with an upstream 2 A fuse.
- Dry DI: COM+ to DI through switch/relay. Wet DI: external 5–36V referenced to COM-.
- DO: add RC snubbers (AC) or flyback diodes (DC) for inductive loads.
- AI (Y301-444): connect either V+ (voltage) or I+ (current) per channel—never both simultaneously.
- RS485: shielded twisted pair, 120 Ω termination at both ends with a shared reference ground.
