The LENZE Lenz I/O 1000 Series represents a very compact and simple (tool-free) DIN rail mounting system that can accommodate up to eight connections while requiring only 12.5mm of space. The series has a two-part permanent wiring concept, and includes a base module and an electronic module. Communication is achieved by using a bus coupler that supports CANopen, DeviceNet, EtherCAT, Modbus/RS485, PROFIBUS and PROFINET. In addition, the I/O 1000 series provides LED and label fields assigned to each channel for clear labeling and diagnosis. These modules are very easy to install and can be connected in series up to 64 modules at a time by using the backplane bus.
