Product short description:
  • 16-channel discrete I/O
  • 8 counter/timers
  • Modbus TCP/IP communication

These modules provide an isolated Ethernet interface for any input/output mix of up to 16 discrete signals. Inputs sense the status of dry contacts, switches, power supplies, and DC logic. Industrial-grade units have eight 32-bit counters with timers, alarms, and non-volatile memory for metering, totalizing, and low-frequency periodic measurement. The outputs control solid-state switching of lamps, horns, and other devices.
