Distributed I/O

Distributed I/O refers to I/O that is remote from the controller and is not
designed for use with a specific controller. Examples of distributed I/O that can
be used with Logix5000 controllers include the following:

1794 FLEX I/O modules

1734 POINT I/O modules

1797 FLEX Ex™ I/O modules

1738 ArmorPOINT® I/O modules

1732 ArmorBlock® I/O modules

1753 GuardPLC™ Safety I/O modules

1790 CompactBlock™ LDX I/O modules

1791 CompactBlock Guard Safety I/O modules

1791 CompactBlock I/O modules

1732DS ArmorBlock Guard Safety I/O modules

1792 ArmorBlock MaXum™ I/O modules

Distributed I/O is connected to the ControlLogix controller via a
communication network. The ControlLogix controller supports the use of
distributed I/O via these networks:

EtherNet/IP

ControlNet
