Remote I/O Modules Cut Cost
The result, says the vendor, is a more cost and space-efficient solution. No software is required, because the setup uses a standard Internet browser. A complete 12-channel 900EN Series I/O solution starts at $350 and requires just one inch of DIN rail space. The I/O modules provide an isolated Ethernet/IP 10/100 Mbps network interface, and have passed Ethernet/IP conformance tests established by the Open DeviceNet Vendors Association.
