1734 POINT I/O™In-Cabinet Modular I/O Platform

POINT I/O is a family of modular I/O products ideal for applications requiring flexibility and low cost of ownership. With one to eight channel density modules, including a self-configuring discrete module, the modularity of POINT I/O minimizes system costs and size. The ability to mix standard and safe I/O provides even greater flexibility and opportunities for standardization, regardless of application requirements. Since it can be used in local and remote I/O, POINT I/O further reduces engineering costs in design, installation and application development.As part of the Rockwell Automation Integrated Architecture, POINT I/O provides comprehensive channel-level diagnostics (wire off and short circuit), and configurable features, such as user-set filters and alarms, making it easy to use in your application.POINT I/O is the only IP20-rated modular I/O solution compliant with ODVA requirements for linear, star, and ring EtherNet/IP architectures. This provides you with greater system reliability and availability, maximizing your uptime and system performance.IO-Link is the first technology for communication with sensors and actuators to be adopted as an IEC 61131-9 standard. POINT IO-Link Master allows up to four IO-Link devices to be connected to the POINT I/O system. Regardless of the application, POINT I/O brings the power of the Integrated Architecture to the field device in a small, easy-to-use package.
