XI/ON I/O system

Discontinued

Programmable logic controllers (PLC)

Eaton's decentralized I/O system XI/ON included the XN... and XNE... and the corresponding accessories.

The XN300 system, which was introduced as the successor to the XI/ON I/O system, enables flexible expansion of the local function level of the new XControl controller generation as well as use as remote I/O via communication gateways. The universal use of the XN300 I/O system for the local and decentralized I/O level reduces the variety of devices and simplifies engineering. In addition, the IO configuration can be flexibly adapted to the requirements of your automation solution with all XN300 I/O modules.

In decentralized applications, the XN300 I/O modules can be integrated into standardized CANopen and EtherCAT communication networks via gateways, allowing the XN300 system to be used with any PLC and providing a modern replacement for the XION series.

The flexible XControl system includes the modular XC-303, XC-204 and XC-104 PLCs, which can be combined with the XN300 I/O modules and gateways, as well as the XSOFT-CODESYS-3 programming software.

Comprehensive communication options

The XI/ON gateways cover the fieldbus systems CANopen, Profibus-DP, DeviceNet and Ethernet. The system can thus be connected to a wide variety of controllers, irrespective of the bus type.

Versatile applications

The precise calibration options of the XI/ON modules allow users to adapt the I/O system to their individual needs. This flexibility makes it possible to use the system across a broad range of applications. Thanks to the plug-in connection, installing the modules is quick and easy. This also enables fast module changes (hot swaps). The base module wiring is implemented via screw terminals or spring-cage terminals.

Comprehensive product range

The comprehensive XI/ON product range includes gateways, block modules and slice modules that can simply be plugged into the base module. The number of channels per module ranges from 1 to 32. In addition, a large variety of analog and digital modules are also available.
