The PCI I/O Module is designed for remote monitoring and
control applications that enables end-to-end automation and
device-to-enterprise integration. The I/O Module allows a
PCI8000 to interface directly with simple non-intelligent inputs
and outputs remotely located up to 4,000 feet away.
Connectivity is established via an industry-standard RS 485
communications bus. Multiple I/O Modules can be utilized
with a single PCI8000, providing 250+ I/O points on that one
device.
FEATURES
• The 34-point module provides 16 Universal Inputs, 10 Relay
Outputs, 8 Analog Outputs, and can power up to 4 16-point
modules.
• The 16-point module provides 8 Universal Inputs, 4 Relay
Outputs, 4 Analog Outputs, and is powered from a 34-point
module, or 15 Vdc supply.
• PCI I/O Modules support mounting on EN50022 standard
7.5mm x 35mm DIN rails.
