MotionLinx-IO
EtherCAT Networked Digital IO

Integrator solutions for EtherCAT I/O.

MotionLinx-IO is our EtherCAT based Digital I/O module that compliments our MotionLinx-Ai motor controller to round out a complete EtherCAT based integration platform.  MotionLinx-IO contains 8 I/O points that can each be configured individually to be an input or an output.

MotionLinx-IO is also a configurable 8 digital input or 8 digital output (or any combination) I/O block that operates on only an EtherCAT network with a master controller. The MotionLinx-IO has the same footprint, power, M8 IO connections as the ConveyLinx-Ai2 model.

Ordering Information

  • IP54 Environmental Rating
  • Separate power connection for digital outputs for E-Stop isolation
  • Compact design that matches MotionLinx-Ai size and footprint
  • Near real time response with deterministic EtherCAT network topology
