Productivity2000^® Micro-Modular PLC - Remote I/O

Control applications are often broken out into several different machines or sub-systems that all communicate back to a primary PLC CPU. To connect each I/O point from these remote devices to the main CPU would take numerous, extensive wire runs. The Productivity2000 remote I/O modules can be installed at a remote location and communicate all I/O signals back to the main PLC using a single Ethernet communication cable. Distributing I/O this way saves installation time, wiring costs, troubleshooting/wire tracing headaches, and makes it much easier if/when remote devices need wiring modifications or need to be relocated.

• 10/100 Mbps Ethernet connection for signal transmission
• Up to 8 remote I/O groups allowed with every CPU (using Remote I/O Ethernet Port)
• Up to 15 I/O modules per remote group (depending on power supply)
• Using P2-RS remote I/O modules, 3,840 additional I/O points are possible (8 remote groups, 15 slots each, 32-point I/O)
• Using the lower cost P1-RX remote I/O module, 1,024 additional I/O points are possible (8 remote groups, 8 slots each, 16-point I/O)
