“Require slightly more functions”, “Want to add functions to the existing equipment”
—The rich variety of add-on cassettes helps solve these requirements.
Max. number of at-
tachable cassettes
The add-on cassette easily adds small quantities of functions and I/O points. 
C14 2 cassettes
C30, C60 3 cassettes
