DESCRIPTION

The Local I/O Heads incorporate a custom chip and an internal

power supply. Model Numbers 61C22 and 61C23 are identical

except for the type of power supply contained within the Head.

Model Number 61C22 has a 120 VAC power supply. Model Number

61C23 has a 24/48 VDC power supply. The custom chip acts as a

communication multiplexer that allows one Rail or RailĆcompatible

device to communicate to each of the four RAIL ports on the

faceplate. The power supply provides all of the voltages necessary to

power the Head and up to four Digital Rails. A power supply is

housed in a holder accessible on the faceplate. See figure 2.1 and

figure 2.2.
