IDEC introduces the SX8R Bus Coupler module for deploying I/O modules, in support of the industry design trend of using smaller, decentralized control panels to simplify installations and reduce wiring complexity. The IDEC SX8R Bus Coupler can be used to design distributed remote I/O systems or to expand the I/O count for controllers with limited base unit I/O points. Each SX8R supports up to 7 I/O modules on the base unit, and up to eight additional modules for a total of up to 15 I/O modules. A single SX8R can therefore support up to 480 discrete points (input and/or output), 120 analog inputs, and/or 60 analog outputs.
