Page 4: Introduction
1.0 Introduction This document describes the features of the AppBox E54. The AppBox E54 is designed to be used in an industrial environment with a CAN, RS485, USB, or Ethernet interface to provide flexible, modular I/O (AppIO) for specific applications. These AppIO Modules allow customized solutions to be integrated for a wide variety of applications that need to go into a CAN, RS485, USB, or Ethernet communications environment. -
