Industrial CM24DOUT-VI-I Digital Output Module

The Baldwin Industrial CM24DOUT-VI-I Digital Output Module provides 24 discrete output channels for Baldwin CM-series control systems. Intended as an expansion module, it adds native digital outputs to drive field devices such as relays, contactors, or other actuators under the host controller’s command. The VI-I designation identifies a specific interface/variant within the CM24 family, designed to integrate with Baldwin’s CM-series backplane and overall control architecture. Used in manufacturing lines, packaging equipment, material handling, and general automation tasks, the CM24DOUT-VI-I enables centralized, scalable control by distributing output points across a compact module rather than adding separate controllers. The exact electrical characteristics, load ratings, and installation details for this module are defined in Baldwin’s official CM24DOUT-VI-I documentation, which should be consulted to ensure correct wiring, compatibility, and safe operation. This module plugs into the Baldwin CM backplane as part of a modular I/O strategy, allowing technicians to expand control capabilities without replacing existing hardware. Because digital output modules switch discrete loads, they are typically coordinated with the control program to execute timed sequences, logic gating, and interlocks in automated equipment. Engineering teams rely on the CM24DOUT-VI-I to balance the number of outputs against the available backplane resources, ensuring scalable, maintainable automation architecture.
