Description
Expansion adapters come in three different variants but you need choose only one of them for each PLC. Up to 8 Din-Rail mounted IO modules can be added to each expansion adapter from the list below.-
Din-Rail mounted IO for Vision PLCs
Unitronics PLCs can support IO either directly on board, via local expansion units or via a CANbus network (not M90/M91). The following IO modules can be used as remote IO, they are all DIN rail mount and will need an expansion adaptor to connect to the PLC. Up to 8 IO modules can be attached to each adapter and 1 adapter can be attached to each PLC unless using CANbus.

The EX-A1 or EX-A2X adaptor is a stand alone expansion adaptor which connects to the PLC via a CAT5 cable and to a further eight IO modules via ribbon cable. In all three cases these cables are included with the modules where required.
The EX-RC1 adaptor is a stand alone network adaptor that connects to up to eight IO modules via ribbon cables but then connects to the master PLC on a CANbus network. The CANbus cable is user supplied.
The EX-XL IO modules are expansion units with an integral adaptor and connect to the PLC via a CAT5 cable then up to seven more IO modules via ribbon cable. If required the PLC may be expanded via both local and remote IO (M90/91 via local only) up to the IO limit of the particular PLC model, see user guides. Only one local expansion adaptor may be used with up to eight extra modules (seven if the integral EX-XL module is used). Further IO expansion, up to the IO limit, must then be made via CANbus.
VisiLogic is an easy to use and intuitive programming software that is included with this product.
VisiLogic is a powerful software package that allows the Vision™ series of integrated PLC & HMI to be programmed easily and quickly. The software has a familiar intuitive feel and incorporates many advanced features such as discrete program routines, function blocks, data tables, data logging, trending and alarm handling. All of the standard maths functions are available and complex formula can be developed without the need to have a degree in computer science!
The integrated intuitive function blocks really make the Vision™ series the powerful devices that they are. There are many pre-set function blocks available performing a wide variety of advanced tasks as easily as dropping & dragging an icon into your program and configuring a few parameters.
Subjects such as CAN Open networking, Modbus communications, pulse trains outputs and bespoke serial communication protocols all have function blocks available to make the programmers life less difficult. To find out more detail about the range of function blocks available visit the VisiLogic software page HERE.
You can use VisiLogic and the associated software utilities to program, control, access and download data to and from the PLC remotely and directly.
