Net I/O Modules
The Ethernet (Net) I/O modules provide extra inputs and outputs for your XO device. You mount the modules on a
DIN rail and connect them to the local network. To power the modules: use PoE, a PoE injector, or a local power
adapter (12 VDC; 800 mA).
Each I/O module offers 4 inputs and 4 outputs, and LED indicators and a buzzer controlled by the XO device. You
can extend each base I/O module with 1 to 3 submodules, to obtain up to 16 inputs and outputs.
As you can link your XO device to up to 8 I/O modules (8 basic modules, each with up to 3 extension modules),
you can obtain a total of 128 extra inputs and 128 extra outputs.
Caution!
Before plugging or unplugging any extension units, switch off the power to the base unit.
Plugging or unplugging extension units with power on, may result in
permanent and irreparable
damage
to the main and/or extension units.
For detailed installation instructions, see the
ADPRO Ethernet I/O Datasheet
(20148).

To program the IP address of an I/O module and to update its software, you use the NetFinder tool. You can find
this tool on the CD/DVD delivered with the system, or you can download it from the Xtralis Support website
. For instructions, see the
ADPRO Ethernet I/O Datasheet
(20148).
To add and configure the Net I/O modules in the client software, see the
