Connectivity
I/O Expansion:
XLe I/O expansion is not limited to its Built-in I/O. SmartStix I/O is high-speed and can be local or highly distributed. RTU/Modbus based I/O is a cost effective means of adding specialty or a mix of I/O types.
Architecture:
The XLe supports CsCAN high-speed networking as standard, and Ethernet networking as a field-installable option. Single-point-of-connect allows seamless communications between the computer and any controller. In the diagram above, XLe 2 and XLe 3 are accessed by the PC over Ethernet and CsCAN through XLe 1.
