LC1105 IO Module Coupler Of EtherNet/IP

The distributed remote IO system consists of a network adapter module and an expansion IO module, aiming to achieve efficient field data acquisition and control. The main responsibility of the network adapter module is to handle field bus communications and establish a stable connection with the master controller. Users can select the appropriate bus module according to specific application requirements to ensure smooth communication with the control system. At present, widely used industrial communication protocols include EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP, Profibus DP, Modbus/TCP, etc. These protocols provide guarantees for the interoperability of the system.

The expansion IO module is responsible for connecting the input and output sensors on site, and can effectively collect various signals on site. These signals are transmitted to the network adapter through the internal bus. The controller reads the data from the adapter and performs necessary processing, and then outputs the processed data to the network adapter. The network adapter then passes these output data to the output IO module to achieve precise control of the device through the internal bus. There are many types of expansion IO modules, which are mainly divided into nine categories, including digital input modules, digital output modules, digital input and output mixed modules, analog input modules, analog output modules, temperature input modules, pressure sensor input modules, pulse counting modules and auxiliary modules, etc., which can meet the needs of different application scenarios.

The flexible combination of network adapters and expansion IO modules enables users to customize according to the specific requirements of the site, thereby meeting functional requirements while reducing the cost of the overall system.

Small node footprint: Each node can be configured with an EtherNet/IP adapter, 1 to 3 IO modules and terminal devices, greatly saving system resources.

High support capability: One adapter consists of end baffles and can support up to 512 IO points, meeting the needs of large-scale industrial applications.

Flexible configuration: Users can freely combine various types of IO modules according to actual needs, providing great flexibility and adaptability.

Easy to use: Each IO module has independent functions, and users can simply configure it according to the actual topology structure, which is easy to operate and reduces the threshold for use.

Function-rich expansion IO modules: IO modules cover various types such as digital quantity, analog quantity, temperature, pressure, pulse, etc., which can be flexibly expanded and suitable for various application scenarios.

Strong compatibility: The communication interface of the adapter complies with the EtherNet/IP communication standard and supports mainstream EtherNet/IP master PLCs including Keenz, Omron, Schneider, etc., ensuring the wide applicability of the system.

Module parameter configuration support: Users can configure module parameters as needed to improve system flexibility and adaptability.

Fault diagnosis function: The adapter is equipped with an error indicator light, and each module also supports a fault alarm function, which is convenient for users to perform measurements and maintenance to ensure the stable operation of the system.
