Mitsubishi PLC Alarm Memory Modem 56k M20 Expansion Module

The ST Series Remote I/O solution, where “ST” stands for “Slice Terminal”

after their extremely slim profile (~0.5in), places easily-expandable

remote I/O devices on decentralized head stations. This allows users to

mix-and-match between digital and analog I/O types on a single network

node. This product promotes ease of design flexibility and ease of 

maintenance, including online I/O module replacement. The ST Series has

dedicated software which is used for system configuration, commissioning,

and online troubleshooting and diagnostics.

Supporting both CC-Link and PROFIBUS/DP, this product is perfect for

applications with modular remote I/O requirements.

Key Features:

• Network Head Stations for CC-Link and PROFIBUS/DP

• Mix-and-match I/O types: Digital and Analog

• I/O-count expansion as low as 2-point up to 16-point; 63 slices max

• Online Module Change without rewiring

• Selectable Spring or Screw clamp terminals

• Single software: GX Configurator-ST

• DIN Rail mounting

Digital I/O Modules

The ST Series Digital Input/Output modules come in various sizes and

capacities, with counts as low as 2 points and as high as 16 points.

These modules can be assembled in any order and mixed with analog

I/O modules as well. Each I/O module requires a corresponding base

module, which will be individually keyed to that type of I/O module 

after the first use. This prevents spare modules to be placed in incorrect

position during maintenance such as Online Module Change.

Achieve multi-axis machine control with one controller

The MX Controller, equipped with a high-performance multi-core MPU as standard,

integrates sequence, motion, and network control, supporting up to 256 axes.

It supports mixed operation cycles, ensuring high-speed control even with multiple

axes. One controller delivers precise control of individual mechanisms and control

of the entire production line.

Optimizing control performance of entire system

With one MELSEC MX Controller, up to three different operation and communication cycles

can be set for each axis and device station.*1

There is no need for multiple CPU modules. This greatly improves the cost efficiency of your

equipment.

Even for multi-axis machines, the control performance at high-speed operation cycles can

be partially secured, improving accuracy in processes such as cutting.
