9 I/O Cable and Breakout Box
Eight inputs (Read Ports) and eight outputs (Write Ports) can be used for external digital
interfacing.
An I/O cable with the ‘breakout’ DIN rail mounting terminal box can be used to interface to
the SimStep without needing to make a special cable.
The I/O breakout box features screw terminals to enable the 16 Digital I/O to be
connected. The unit is DIN rail mounted so that it can be sited next to a typical PLC
control unit
