The FLEX Integra System
FLEX Integra is a small, modular I/O system for distributed applications
that performs all of the functions of rack-based I/O. The FLEX Integra
system contains the following components shown below:
•
adapter/power supply – powers the internal logic for as many as eight
I/O modules
•
I/O module with integral wiring terminals– contains the bus interface
and circuitry needed to perform specific functions related to your
application and connection terminals for connecting wiring.
