Remote I/O Modules
Remote I/O refers to I/O that is not in the local chassis and is connected to the
controller via a communication network.
The ControlLogix controller supports the use of remote I/O via these networks:
•
EtherNet/IP
•
ControlNet
•
DeviceNet
•
Universal remote I/O
For more information about the network configurations that can be used to
connect remote I/O, see
Communication Networks on page 85
