Unitronics IO-RO8, IO-RO8L User Manual
IO-RO8, IO-RO8L I/O Expansion Module 8 Relay Outputs
The IO-RO8 and IO-RO8L are I/O
expansion modules that can be used in
conjunction with specific Unitronics OPLC
controllers.
The modules are identical except for their
power supply specifications: IO-RO8 runs
at 24 VDC; IO-RO8L at 12 VDC.
Both modules offer 8 relay outputs.
The interface between module and OPLC
is provided by an adapter.
These modules may either be snapmounted on a DIN rail, or screw-mounted
onto a mounting plate.
