Overview
SmartStix Expandable I/O
SmartStix I/O is a terminal-block style I/O. They can be used to expand the I/O capacity of Horner OCS products. They are very cost effective as a remote digital I/O, because SmartStix I/O connects to any Horner OCS product featuring a CsCAN network port.
SmartStix I/O are extremely compact and takes up very little panel space whether located in the main control panel or tucked away in a remote location. SmartStix I/O have a barrier style terminal strip and are DIN-rail mountable. The terminal Strip is removable leaving the wiring intact for easy field servicing.
Installation times can be a drawback with most Remote I/O systems, but SmartStix I/O greatly reduce setup times. Just assign a unique IE to the I/O module using the integrated rotary switches, connect a 5-wire shielded cable and select the appropiate SmartStix part number from Cscape Hardware Configuration and you’ll be up and running in no time.
