Emerson PACSystems™ RSTi-EP I/O High Density, High Performance Slice I/O

Smarter Architecture

Today’s connected machines require innovative, high

performance control systems that minimize unplanned

downtime and increase productivity and efficiency.

RSTi-EP combines powerful technology and a modular,

compact form factor to deliver higher performance and

maximized productivity in today’s connected automation

systems. The RSTi-EP remote I/O system is well suited

for Industrial Internet enabled applications. It features

an extended operating temperature range, enhanced

diagnostics, plug-and-play connectivity and high channel

density– all designed to simplify machine design and

maintenance. Advanced diagnostics make RSTi-EP ideal

for remote applications, especially those where I/O can be

difficult to reach. RSTi-EP I/O is easily expandable, so you

can adapt and extend coverage as your system evolves.

Higher Performance in Half the Space

The innovative RSTi-EP I/O is a powerful combination

of clean layout, high density, and small footprint. It

can accommodate up to 64 modules and 1024 I/O

points per drop, while its 11.5 mm I/O slices maximize

limited cabinet space. By adopting the most compact

I/O system on the market, it’s possible to incorporate

smaller cabinet sizes into user-friendly system designs.

You can even eliminate external components by using

optional potential distribution modules to provide

easy connections to input power, output power, and

functional earth.

Remote, Real-time Diagnostics

With the RSTi-EP’s integrated web server and advanced

diagnostics, failures in the system can be identified

remotely, eliminating the need to travel to the machine,

saving both time and money. The web server lets the

operator view diagnostic faults and upgrade firmware

over the web– simplifying start up, increasing availability

and productivity without the need for additional tools or

software. Additionally, actions can be taken within the

application feeding off of the diagnostic information. It

is simple to prioritize service trips as critical or routine

maintenance without stepping out of the control room.
