eI/O modules are powered in one of two ways
9-30 V DC power inputs
802.3af-2003 Power over Ethernet
All eI/O modules include the same connectors and configuration options on the front and side of
the unit:
Status LEDs are also included on the front of all eI/O modules to indicate the following information:
Power (Green) – Lights when power is applied to the module.
Act (Green) – Light blinks when Modbus/TCP activity is present or when new firmware is
being downloaded.

eI/O-110 modules provide 4 optically isolated inputs and 4 Form A Reed Relay outputs. Inputs
4 non-polarized optically isolated inputs
4 SPST Form A Form A Reed Relays
can range from 5-30VDC, while the Form A Reed Relays provide long life switch closures that
are well suited for low current applications. Each pair of inputs shares a common and field
wiring is simplified via 3.5mm field removable terminal blocks.
