S500 I/O modules
Modular I/O modules support a wide range of signal types. They are suitable for both centralized control and remote I/O expansion.
Flexible I/O integration for every application
With S500 I/O modules, you can easily adapt your system architecture to project needs – whether centralized, decentralized, or multifunctional. Mix and match connection types to build exactly what your automation solution requires:
Central
- Via the local I/O bus of the CPU module
- Connect up to 10 I/O modules directly to the CPU
Decentralized
- Using fieldbus links between CPU and remote I/O
- Each fieldbus slave can host up to 10 modules
Multifunctional
- Some modules, like the AI531, handle up to 8 different analog signal types in one device
Benefits
S500 I/O modules offer robust, scalable signal handling for centralized and distributed applications – supporting analog, digital, and mixed signals. Designed for industrial durability and system flexibility.
