10 Introduction
1734-8CFGDLX
This module is an 8-point 24V DC I/O module with 8 self-configuring points
and DeviceLogix capabilities. Each of the I/O points can be either a DC input
or output. The module supports removal and insertion under power,
auto-address, and auto-baud in compliance with the POINTBus backplane.
1738-8CFGDLXM8, 1738-8CFGDLXM12, and 1738-8CFGDLXM23
The ArmorPOINT I/O family consists of modular I/O modules. The sealed
IP67 housing of these modules requires no enclosure. Note that
environmental requirements other than IP67 may require an additional
appropriate housing. I/O connectors are sealed M8 (pico), M12 (micro) or
M23 styles. The mounting base ships with the module.
Modes of Usage
The module can be used in one of the following modes:
•
as a standard POINT I/O module,
•
in a stand alone DeviceLogix program where it controls its own I/O,
and
•
in network applications with or without the peer exchange of data.
Standard POINT I/O Module
The module can simply be used as an 8-point configurable POINT I/O
module. It uses ODVA pre-defined Produce and Consume assemblies. Default
settings help to facilitate quick setup right out-of-the-box. It is CIP network
independent and it can run on DeviceNet, EtherNet/IP or ControlNet when
used in conjunction with an adapter.
