Zlinx RS485 I/O Modules

Total Versatility! Select I/O Modules that Best Fit Your Application

The ZlinxTM family of I/O has now expanded to include RS-485 communication. With the same software package as our Zlinx Wireless product line, you don’t have to learn new configuration software or load multiple programs on your computer. With a full compliment of digital input and output modules, analog input and output modules and RTD inputs, the Zlinx-485 wired I/O can monitor most applications.

 

FeaturesBenefits
Modbus RTU CompatibleCommunicates with most PLC, HMI and SCADA software devices on the market
Modular and FlexibleNo rack required. Up to 6 modules connect together to customize to your application
Peer-to-Peer ModeUse 2 wires (RS-485) to transmit up to 24 digital I/O points or 12 analog I/O points
2 High-Speed CountersUp to two 32-bit counters on each base module to allow high speed counting - up to 5 KHz. Save system costs for simple counting applications versus buying an expensive system
Wide TemperatureMeets most indoor or outdoor applications. Rugged circuitry prevents signal degradation versus lower temperature rated devices.

Additional Features:

  • DIN rail mounting
  • RS-485, RS-422 and RS-232 support
  • Serial speeds up to 230 KHz
  • 12-bit analog resolution, 16-bit RTD resolution
  • NPN or PNP input frequencies up to 200 Hz (software selectable)
  • 10-30 VDC operation
  • -40 to 80 oC operating temperature
  • Windows 2000, XP, Vista compatible
