I/O System Introduction
The Continuum I/O system is comprised of a series of modules separated by function
that connect via a common electrical communications bus. Each functional component is
enclosed in a plastic case containing all of its connections to the outside world. Modules
are connected to a central controller via a standard five conductor connector.
The Continuum system includes at least one power supply and a single controller
module. I/O modules provide the controller with the ability to interface with the outside
world. They connect directly and communicate with the CPU. The following is a typical
architecture drawing of a Continuum System:
Continuum I/O modules are available in INPUT, OUTPUT, MIXED and DISPLAY
varieties.
