DRT2-ID16/OD16
A threshold value can be set in the Slave so that a flag turns ON
when this value is exceeded. (This is possible with both the con-
tact operation counter function and the energized time monitor
function.) This makes it possible to identify when parts approach
the end of their service life, and provides useful data for preventive
maintenance.

Unit Comment/Connected Slaves
Function
Identification of fault locations and confirmation of replace-
ment parts can be performed quickly.
Unit Command Function
Setting the location in the Slave’s internal comments means that
the Slave can be detected from the Configurator.
Connected Devices Comment Function
By setting the maker name and model number for each contact
(e.g., sensors and valves), comments can be set for each of the
input and output contacts in the Slaves.
Confirmation and preparation of replacement parts when failures
occur can be performed quickly.
All of this data can be handled as electronic data and can therefore
be used, for example, to create electronic manuals or databases of
maintenance parts.

Network Startup
Networks can be started up simply by making rotary switch
settings and connecting network cables.
Easy Node Address Setting
Node addresses are set with easy-to-use rotary switches.
Automatic Baud Rate Recognition Function
The automatic baud rate recognition function eliminates the need
for DIP switches.
No Wiring Required for Unit’s Internal Circuit Power
Supply
Power for the Unit’s internal circuits is obtained from the network
power and so no wiring is required for the Unit’s internal circuit
power supply.
