Smart I/O ICAN Header
For i3 Controllers
To use with XGB I/O Expansion Dims, H=90mm W=45mm D=64mm
Smart I/O is a real-time, modular I/O system – expanding the application of the i³ family of all-in-one controllers. Then Smart I/O iCAN adapter utilizes iCAN communications for the I/O connection with the i³ Controller. The highly efficient and highly reliable nature of iCAN allows a significant amount of I/O to be added while maintaining fast I/O updates.
Modular
Smart I/O is a modular IO system which can add up to 8 I/O modules per base with a wide variety of digital and analog I/O to choose from. Digital I/O includes DC inputs, DC outputs, and Relay outputs. Analog I/O includes 0(4)-20mA/0- 10V inputs and outputs, Thermocouple Inputs and RTD Inputs. Modules are available with inputs only, inputs and outputs, and outputs only
Compact
Smart I/O is very compact, with a flexible footprint that only grows as you add modules. The Smart I/O Base is 3.5”H x 2.375”W – with a depth of only 1.75”. Each I/O module adds only about ¾” of width. Using 16 point modules, the Smart I/O can support 128 I/O points in a footprint of less than 3.5”H x 8.75”W
Highly Expandable
With digital I/O densities ranging from 8 points to 32 points per module, and an analog density of 4 channels per module – Smart I/O can support as many as 256 digital I/O points and 32 analog I/O points per base. Adding multiple bases to a single i³ control system is very easy. This can allow the number of I/O to grow to literally the limits of the i³ I/O memory space (Digital-2048, Analog-512). Multiple bases can also be used to distribute the I/O to locations closer to the sensors and actuators, saving wiring costs
