The Omron CP1H-X40DT-D is an active, mid-range programmable logic controller from the CP1H series, powered by 24VDC. It carries 24 digital inputs and 16 outputs split into 4 pulse outputs and 12 solid-state sinks — suited for high-speed positioning or simple motion control alongside standard discrete loads. Program memory is 32K words, expandable with up to 7 additional modules via the side bus. The unit includes a battery backup for program retention, a two-digit red LED display for diagnostics, and communications via USB plus an option card slot for fieldbus adapters. Approvals include CE, cULus, Lloyd’s Register, and NK, covering most industrial and marine applications.
How it compares to its siblings
The closest variant in the CP1H family is the CP1H-XA40DT1-D, which replaces two of the digital inputs with 4 combo analog/digital inputs and adds 2 analog outputs (alongside 10 solid-state and 4 pulse outputs). It also uses a 24VDC supply and shares the same footprint, but the I/O wiring is different — the analog channels occupy different terminal positions and require shielded cabling. If your panel was wired for the -XA variant, dropping in an -X40 without rewiring will break the analog circuits. The CP1H-X40DR-A is the relay-output sibling with 16 relays instead of solid-state, and it runs on 100–240VAC rather than 24VDC. Physically it mounts the same way but requires a different power supply and has no pulse outputs, so it cannot drive steppers or servos directly.
