Add low-cost field I/O (such as a digital I/O module) to your programmable logic controller (PLC)
or PC-based industrial control system

Terminator I/O

Terminator I/O is the most practical distributed I/O system you can buy.

• Network interface modules supporting Ethernet, Profibus, DeviceNET, MODBUS and Koyo remote I/O;
  some adapters include an on-board RS232 serial port.
  
  
• Discrete and analog industrial I/O modules with modular terminal bases
  
  
• Configuration flexibility by plugging together a network interface module with up to 16 I/O modules.
  Use local expansion for large I/O drops. No more confining I/O bases.
  
  
• AC or DC power supplies. For high power systems, combine multiple supplies on a single I/O set.
  
  
• Horizontal or vertical DIN rail mounting

Two sizes of terminal bases accomodate all I/O modules

• Half-size bases for up to 8-point modules
• Full-size bases for up to 16-point modules
• Triple-stack terminal blocks are standard and multi-wire devices are easy to connect
• Same bases for all I/O modules - AC, DC, and analog

Network interface modules for your favorite fieldbus

• Ethernet - the "common sense network", 10BaseT
• DeviceNET, MODBUS and Koyo remote I/O, and Profibus
• All network modules include an on-board RS232 serial port, ideal for operator interfaces or other serial devices (except Profibus modules).
• Ethernet modules even support connectivity to bar code readers

Power supplies: freedom of choice, freedom to expand

• DC power supplies at affordable prices
• AC versions
• AC supplies include 24 VDC auxiliary supply for convenient field device wiring
• Need more power for high-current devices or modules? ...
  Just add another power supply before the next module in the system!

Discrete I/O with the features you need

• 8-point or 16-point input and output modules (DC and AC inputs; DC, AC and relay outputs)
• 8-point 5-36 VDC current sinking/ sourcing isolated output module
• All DC input modules are sink/ source jumper configurable
• Diagnostic LEDs for blown fuses and 24 VDC power on applicable modules
• "Hot-swap" capability makes troubleshooting easy

Analog I/O modules at a low price per channel

• 8-channel input modules, or choose a 16-channel output module
• 0-20 mA/ 4-20 mA and unipolar and bipolar voltage models available
• 14-channel thermocouple input module supports J, E, KE, R, S, T, B, N, and C types
• 16-channel RTD input module supports Pt100, jPT100, Cu10, Cu25, and Pt1000
• All analog ranges are software configurable - no jumpers required!
• "Hot-swap" analog modules for fast system repair

Specialty I/O modules for your industrial control process

Terminator I/O High Speed Counter Module
8 DC sink/ source inputs 9-30 VDC, 4 isolated sink/ source DC outputs, 5-30 VDC, 1 A per point.

Inputs supported:
2 quadrature encoder counters up to 100 KHz, or 4 single channel counters up to 100 KHz, and 4 high speed discrete inputs for Reset, Inhibit, or Capture.

Outputs supported:
4 independently configurable high speed discrete outputs or 2 channels pulse output control, 20 Hz - 25 KHz per channel, pulse and direction or cw/ ccw pulses.
NOTE: (Use with T1K-16B or T1K-16B-1 terminal base.)

Local expansion up to two additional rows!

• Full backplane expansion through cables
  
  
• Connect up to 16 modules across three total rows by plugging expansion cable from the right side of one module to the left side of the next - the system automatically recognizes the I/O!
  
  
• Optional cable that includes 24 VDC pins maximizes your power supply capability
