Description
The PARKER EVM32-BASE 1019422 is the foundational carrier and backplane module for the EVM32 expansion family, designed specifically for use with Parker Compumotor 6K series controllers. This EVM32-BASE 1019422 serves as the mechanical and electrical backbone, allowing users to expand their controller’s I/O capacity by housing up to four SIM (Single In-line Module) boards. By utilizing a high-speed serial bus, it enables the integration of digital inputs, digital outputs, and analog signals into a compact, DIN-rail mounted footprint, making it a critical component for distributed motion control and multi-axis automated machinery.

Model Comparison
The PARKER EVM32-BASE 1019422 is distinguished from the EVM32-II by its original modular extrusion design and specific cable interface kits. While the EVM32-II is the updated iteration with refined electronics, both units share the same 4-slot SIM architecture. Unlike the EVM32-CPU modules which act as localized processing units for EtherCAT systems, the 1019422 is a “passive” carrier that relies on the 6K Controller’s intelligence, making it an ideal choice for expanding legacy 6K systems without replacing the primary control logic.
Operational Tips
- Power Safety: Always remove the 24V DC power from the EVM32-BASE before installing or removing SIM boards to prevent electrical arcing and logic corruption.
- SIM Orientation: Observe the notch orientation on the SIM board slots; forcing a SIM board in backwards will damage the gold-plated header pins on the 1019422 backplane.
- Daisy-Chaining: When connecting multiple bricks in a chain, ensure the total cable length does not exceed 100 feet (30.48m) to maintain signal integrity and deterministic timing.
- ESD Handling: The internal circuits of the baseplate are static-sensitive; use an ESD wrist strap and handle the module by the plastic housing rather than the exposed backplane connectors.
