4. Module Installation/Disassembly 4.1 Installation I. Align the red arrow on the side of the module to the arrow on the DIN rail. II. Press the module down and the metal clamp will slide (thanks to its spring mechanism) and grab on the other side of the DIN rail. Continue to push down until the metal clamp “clicks”.
4.2 Removal I. Use a screwdriver to pull the metal hook sideways and detach the module from the DIN rail. II. Remove all modules from the DIN rail in reverse order of installation.
5. iO-GRID M Series Introduction iO-GRID M series utilizes the standard Modbus communication protocol and supports Modbus RTU/ASCII and Modbus TCP. Please choose products and factory controllers to figure your system based on your communication protocol. 5.1 iO-GRID M Components I.

7. Digital Output Module Control Register Description 7.1 Digital Output Module Register Communication Method I. Use Modbus RTU/ASCII to write in single-chip digital output module registers The address for the digital output module register to be written is: 0x2000 ※With no control module, RS485’s physical wire must be connected with an adapter to send the signal to the Dinkle Bus The configuration that uses Modbus RTU/ASCII to write single-chip digital output module registers is listed below:...

II. Use Modbus RTU/ASCII with control modules to write in digital output registers Once a digital output module is set up with a control module, it will automatically assign the digital output modules’ output records registers at the address of 0x2000 Example: Two digital output module registers will at 0x2000 and 0x2001 Digital Outtput Module...
