Product Introduction
The VIBRO-METER VM600 IOC4T 200-560-000-113 is a discrete I/O card for the VM600 machinery protection rack. It supplies four digital inputs and four transistor outputs to exchange status and control signals with external equipment.
This card typically pairs with VM600 processing modules such as the MPC4, where relay logic, alarm routing, and field status signals must be mapped into the rack’s internal bus. Operating temperature spans -20°C to +70°C, with IP20 cabinet mounting.

Quality Control Process (Dynamic for I/O Card)
- Nameplate and revision check: Confirm 200-560-000-113, hardware revision, and rack compatibility.
- Connector inspection: Examine front and backplane pins for bent contacts, corrosion, or loose terminals.
- Input loop test: Inject dry-contact signals on all four digital inputs and verify channel recognition.
- Output load test: Drive each transistor output with a small relay or indicator to confirm switching behavior.
- Backplane communication check: Seat the card in a VM600 rack and verify internal bus detection.
- Packing: Place in an anti-static bag with edge protection and rigid carton for shipment.
Replacement Pitfall Guide
❗ Do not assume all IOC4T cards are identical. The suffix “200-560-000-113” may differ from “200-560-000-016” or “200-560-000-018” in revision or relay mapping.
❗ Do not install without confirming the paired processing card. The IOC4T is an I/O companion, not a standalone controller.
❗ Check transistor output current limits before wiring relays. Exceeding the rated load can damage the card.
❗ Verify dry-contact input wiring polarity and isolation. Floating or wet contacts may cause false alarms.
Keep these in mind and you’ll cut 90% of rework time.
