Function
The interface module connects the
ET 200AL distributed I/O system with
the IO controller
Exchanges data with the I/O modules
via ET-Connection
The interface module connects the
ET 200AL distributed I/O system with
the DP master
Exchanges data with the I/O modules
via ET-Connection
The I/O modules form the interface to
the process
Recording and controlling the current
process status via the connected sen-
sors and actuators
The identification labels come with the
module and can be machine printed
Can be ordered separately
The bus cable creates the bus connec-
tion between the modules
The power cable provides power to the
modules
The stripping tool is used to strip the
ET-Connection bus cable
