1.1 Features
This chapter describes features, package contents and model code, etc. The module type controller has the
following features:
The Z-TIO-G module is a high accurate and high resolution type temperature control module with
measuring accuracy of

0.050 °C and resolution of 0.001 °C.
Dual loop control is available with a single Z-TIO-G module.
The communication interface is only RS-485.

Number of temperature controls
Up to 16 Z-TIO-G modules can be connected on the same communication line. When 16 Z-TIO-G modules
are used, temperature control of up to 32 channels is possible.
When the Z-TIO-G module is used with other types of Z-TIO modules in the same system (unit), the
maximum connection of modules is 16 modules. However, if 4-channel type modules are used in the
system, the maximum number of channels can be more than 32 channels.
 Joinable modules
The Z-TIO-G module can be used together with Z-TIO-A/B/C/D modules, Z-DIO-A module and Z-CT
module. (The Z-TIO-C/D modules, mainly used for PLC communication, are connectable only through the
host communication.)
When Z-TIO-A/B/C/D/G modules, Z-DIO-A module and Z-CT module are used in the same system (unit),
up to 31 modules can be connect in the single unit. (Note that the same module can be used up to 16
modules.)
The Z-COM module cannot be connected to the Z-TIO-G module.
[Example of module configuration]
* Different types of Z-TIO modules can be used in the same system (unit).
Z-TIO-A/B: Temperature control modules (standard type)
Z-TIO-C/D: Temperature control modules (PLC communication type)
Z-TIO-G:
Temperature control module (high accurate type)
“SRZ unit” refers to a unit consisting of only Z-TIO modules, or a unit in which Z-TIO modules
are connected to several other function modules (Z-DIO-A and Z-CT).
Z-TIO modules*: 16 modules Z-DIO-A modules: 15 modules
SRZ unit (functional modules: Up to 31 modules)
