1. Overview
Y401-22-L is a point-to-point LoRa pair with 2 DI and 2 SPDT relay outputs per device. The factory-paired devices exchange two matching input/output channels independently.
Operating Logic
- Device A
DIclosed -> the correspondingDOon Device B energizes - Device A
DIopen -> the correspondingDOon Device B resets - Bidirectional operation: the same logic applies from Device B to Device A
Channel Mapping
| Device A | Device B |
|---|---|
| Channel 1 input | Channel 1 output |
| Channel 2 input | Channel 2 output |
Communication Loss
If wireless communication is lost, the receiver retains the last relay output states for approximately 80 seconds. If communication has not recovered by then, the relay outputs automatically reset to the de-energized (OFF) state. The normally open (NO–COM) contacts open.
2. Ordering Information
Model Configuration
Y401-22-L is a one-to-one LoRa pair. The two digits, 22, specify the digital I/O count on the two sides: each device has 2 DI and 2 DO.
For the full code and examples, see Model Naming.

6. Mechanical and Environmental
Mechanical Specifications
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Dimensions | 88 x 72 x 59 mm |
| Weight | Approx. 50 g |
| Mounting | 35 mm DIN rail |
| Protection rating | IP20 |

7. Installation and Wiring
Use the Y401-22-L user manual for power, input, and relay wiring, pairing or replacement, and commissioning.
DI accepts dry contacts or NPN open-collector signals, not voltage inputs. Relay contacts require an external load supply. Select the load and protection against the electrical ratings above.
8. Important Notes
- Range figures assume an open-area installation. The 10 km option requires the specified configuration and antenna; obstructions, interference, and antenna placement affect the installed link.
- The half-duplex wireless link is unsuitable for guaranteed timing or as the sole emergency-stop/personnel-safety path.
- Independent channels describe input-to-output mapping; they do not establish galvanic isolation between channels.
