Amplicon’s new Ethernet I/O range delivers major cost savings to customers that want to monitor and control devices over an IP network. The Moxa ioLogik E1200 series have an Ethernet switch built-in and are priced as one of the most cost-effective new ranges of Remote I/O products on the market today.

Engineers that have used RS485 wiring on serial networks are familiar with daisy chain connections between remote I/O devices, but Ethernet I/O typically requires one or more switches to build a network. The inclusion of a built-in switch in the ioLogik E1200 series, removes a significant additional expense and keeps wiring schemes very simple.

Suitable for new or existing installations, the ioLogik E1200 series feature user defined Modbus TCP/IP addressing for easy replacement of existing devices. They also include support for the unique Active OPC server software which is available free of charge for up to 250 tags. The following variants are now available:
