Terminator I/O • Terminator I/O

Terminator I/O provides you with an industrial I/O system with remote I/O, distributed I/O and digital I/O module capabilities. It combines the I/O points with their field terminations into a modular package to save panel space and money. With Terminator I/O, you can use distributed I/O nodes close to field devices for faster and more efficient wiring and troubleshooting.

Terminator I/O was custom-designed for AutomationDirect by Koyo (the same people who designed the original GE Series One PLC), a trusted name in control technology since 1983.

• Network interface modules supporting Ethernet, Profibus, DeviceNET,
  MODBUS and Koyo remote I/O; some adapters include an on-board RS232
  serial port
• Discrete and analog industrial I/O modules with modular terminal bases
• Specialty modules include High-Speed Counter, Thermocouple
  and RTD inputs
• Modular terminal bases available in half (8-pt) and full (16-pt) sizes and
  same bases used for all I/O modules - AC, DC, and analog
• Triple-stack terminal blocks are standard and multi-wire devices are easy
  to connect
• Configuration flexibility by plugging together a network interface module
  with up to 16 I/O modules, Use local expansion for large I/O drops. No more
  confining I/O bases
•"Hot-swap" I/O modules for fast system repair and maintenance
• AC or DC power supplies. For high power systems, combine multiple
  supplies on a single I/O set
• Horizontal or vertical DIN rail mounting

Ziplinks & Connection Systems • Ziplinks & Connection Systems

The ZIPLink system eliminates the normally tedious process of wiring PLC I/O to terminal blocks. Simply plug one end of a ZIPLink cable into a DirectLOGIC I/O module and the other end into a ZIPLink connector module. It’s that easy! ZIPLinks use half the space, at a fraction of the total cost of terminal blocks.
