I/O for OCS
SmartStix
™
I/O is a new terminal-block style I/O for the Operator
Control Station (OCS). It can be used to expand the I/O capacity
of any OCS, and it is very cost effective as remote I/O. Because
SmartStix I/O connects to any OCS CsCAN
™
network port, it
can be combined with SmartStack
™
I/O to provide the best I/O
selection for the application. And, output modules feature
Electronic Short-Circuit Protection (ESCP).
Compact, DIN-rail Mounted
SmartStix I/O is extremely compact, providing 16 and 32 point
digital I/O in a package only 1.5" (39mm) deep and a footprint
of 2"H x 4.5"W (50 x 116mm) or 2"H x 7"W (50 x 177mm).
With its small footprint, SmartStix I/O takes up very little panel
space whether located in the main control panel or tucked away in a remote location.
SmartStix I/O has a barrier style terminal strip and can be mounted on a DIN-rail.
Plus, removable terminals make field replacement fast and convenient.
Expands I/O Capacity, Local or Remote
From the miniOCS* to the Color-Touchscreen OCS, SmartStix I/O easily expands the I/O capacity
of any OCS utilizing the CsCAN network port available with every model. It is especially cost effective
when added to a miniOCS. SmartStix I/O offers fast response times without sacrificing robustness, with no
need for a costly I/O interface unit. In addition to its peer-to-peer capabilities, CsCAN is used as a highly
efficient method of distributing SmartStix I/O up to 6000 ft
* *
away.
Easy to Set Up — Easy to Configure
Time and complexity to configure most remote I/O systems is a drawback. SmartStix I/O greatly reduces
setup time. Just assign a unique ID to the I/O module using the integrated rotary switches, connect a
5-wire shielded cable, and add a single, simple function block to your Cscape
™
control program. You’ll be
up and running in no time.
SmartStix Application Examples
* Optional CsCAN port required for miniOCS.
** Maximum distance is 1500 ft per segment, with up to 6000 ft possible using repeaters.
