Digital input signal

开关量 = Digital variables (input/out)

I don't think “开关”here means “switch". See web 1: www.hnist.cn/znbu/YYSYKJC/kycg/sl.doc

“输入生产过程检测信号有两大类:一类是电压或电流模拟信号:另一类是开关量或 数字脉冲量 。开关量 、脉冲量都属于数字信号。”

See web 2:

“其中硬件部分完成从传感器接受模拟量或开关量经变送电路送多路开关电路由工控机给出地址信号,控制所采样的通道,将信号送入A/D或DIO板卡,经单位变换后得到各开关状态和料位等信息。”

Its English translation:
“The sensors receive analog and digital variables, and then transfer them to the multi-switch circuit through converted circuit.”

The following is from web 2: “输入生产过程检测信号有两大类:一类是电压或电流模拟信号:另一类是开关量或 数字脉冲量 。开关量 、脉冲量都属于数字信号。” Another quatation is from web 1. Sorry!

Please go to http://www.honeywell-sensor.com.cn/prodinfo/magnetic_positio...

That is the Chinese website of Honeywell Company. Some of the product catalogs are not translated into Chinese. Please click on the following links:
2SSP系列 开关量位置传感器
SR3系列 开关量位置传感器
开关量固态位置传感器

You will see those English catalogs from which “Digital Position Sensors” is translated into ”开关量位置传感器”. In other words, “开关量” is equivalent to “Digital”.
In the English catalog for 开关量固态位置传感器 (Digital Solid State Position Sensors), there is such a description:

“Digital output sensors are in one of two states — on or off. Analog sensors provide a continuous voltage output ...”

Therefore, 开关量 actually means “on or off” type signal, i.e., digital signal.

开关量 is also called binary input/output. See the Chinese website of Siemens below:

http://www.ad.siemens.com.cn/training/education/course_intro...

内容:
• ......
• ......
• 工作状态监视,报警及故障诊断及开关量/模拟量的输入/输出设定

Content:
• ......
• ......
• Explanation of the operating conditions, alarms, trouble shooting, and the function of binary and analog in/outputs

Therefore, \"开关量输入信号\" can also be called as \"binary input signals\".

agree Xiaoping Fu : 开关量就是由“开”和“关”( 解释为 1 和 0 ) 组成的信号代表的量。
