1. Overview

The Y402-44-L is a four-channel one-to-many wireless I/O system based on LoRa modulation. It includes a master unit (M) and one or more slave units (S). One master can communicate with multiple slaves, and all four channels operate independently for scalable field control.

Operating Logic

  • Master to slave: when master DI1 is closed, DO1 on all slave units energizes; the same logic applies to DI2 to DI4
  • Slave to master: when DI1 on any slave is closed, DO1 on the master energizes; the same logic applies to DI2 to DI4
  • The corresponding output on the master resets only after the same channel on all slave units returns to open
  • Four independent channels with bidirectional transmission

7. Installation and Wiring

Input Wiring

Mechanical switches (maintained switch, float switch, relay contact):

  • Connect directly between DI and COM
  • No external power supply is required

NPN signal:

  • Emitter -> COM
  • Collector -> DI
  • Do not connect an external voltage source to the input terminal

Output Wiring

Direct load (<= 1 kW resistive load):

  • Wire the load in series with the relay output

High-power load (> 1 kW):

  • Use an AC contactor or external power relay

Installation Notes

  1. Install the antenna vertically in an open area, about 2 m above ground.
  2. Keep the unit away from large metal structures.
  3. Tighten the antenna connector securely.
  4. Mount the unit inside the control cabinet on a 35 mm DIN rail.
  5. Place the master near the center of the coverage area whenever possible.
  6. Leave enough space for ventilation.

System Expansion

To add a new slave unit:

  1. Power on the new slave.
  2. Pair it using the pairing button.
  3. The system will recognize and add the device automatically.

8. Important Notes

  1. Communication mode - Half-duplex communication, not intended for hard real-time control.
  2. Frequency range - Recommended operating range is 398 to 525 MHz. Performance may degrade outside this range.
  3. Antenna placement - Install the antenna vertically in an open area and keep it away from metal obstructions.
  4. Master/slave topology - Only one master unit is allowed in each system, while multiple slave units are supported.
  5. Channel isolation - The four channels operate independently without mutual interference.
